Dude, Ive never heard of these bands before, how is their "message"?????

[66 mustang]

their message is not beat you over the head heavy but the meaning is in there.

Guardian is like a mix of bon jovi, Tesla, Whitesnake.......

Fear Not and Love Life and the same band except for one member and they are a mix of Slaughter and Skid Row. Idle Cure is like KISS with Paul doing all the vocals. Legend and Legend 7 are the same band. Legend is a bit heavier than Legend Seven.

one of my favorites is that first Neon Cross disc! also Novella! just FYI

[Geoff]

Disciple - s/t, 'Scars Remain' & 'Southern Hospitality'

Holy Soldier - s/t & 'Last Train'

[Fat Freddy]

Howzabout...

 

Ultimatum (if you like thrash), Final Axe, Titanic, Faith Factor, Temple of Blood or just about anything on the Retroactive Records roster?

I picked up XALT "HISTORY" over the weekend, pretty good, I'm not a big Christian Metal fan, but it was a solid cd.

 

Also picked up, 20/20 BLIND "Never Far", havn't played it yet, any views on this cd?

[66 mustang]

Oh, X-Sinner for that AC/DC meets RATT vibe with a slight pinch of Def Leppard.

[kethdredd]

Freddy has a good idea. Check the entire Retroactive roster, most of it is pretty darn good.

Hate to ruin your day mate but that one is shit. Not the worst ever, but it didn't stay in my collection for very long.

Eternal Ryte - Described as a heavier version of Stryper

Seraiah - Current Stryper Bassist Tracy Ferrie played on their 92' s/t album

Soldier

Bride - Numerous releases.

Legacy - About to release their CD on Eonian Records

 

Check out girder music. They stock old & new christian hard rock & metal. Ordered from them many times. Highly recommended.

[kethdredd]

Been looking forward to that Legacy disc.

Another great CCM metal band is Jerusalem with Ulf Christianson on guitar........these Swedes rock and they definitely have a "Message" to deliver!!!

[sharatan]

are you looking for real metal or some rockish stuff? fighter, holy soldier, petra, jerusalem, idle cure, etc have nothing to do with real metal. which period of bloodgood do you prefer? when they played uncompormised and great metal of their demo and first 2 lps?or the" rock in a hard place" era?

 

if you're looking for olde stuff with strong message check this video of this great video(in the land of glam/hair some refused to follow the trends):even some great fanzines of the past like white throne etc ignored them....

 

 

the band released them on a cd-r which i have and if you like'em i could send them(the only negative point is that the singer, although great, lost his voice in some parts)...unfortunately i couldn't manage,so far, to find out all the lyrics.....

 

 

 

check also this great band(their singer followed a monastic life after):
