The “Christian Metal Group” (aptly named) on Facebook is one of the largest social media groups dedicated to the promotion and discussion of Christian heavy metal. The page is taking its support to a new level by sponsoring its first compilation. Full track list was announced this morning, and the compilation (vol. 1) drops next Saturday, September 14th. For more information, check out the page here: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61564859173268 1. Scapegoat – Stand Your Ground 2. Testimony Of Apocalypse – The Time Has Come 3.

The story of Peter is one of the most challenging parts of the gospels apart from perhaps the story of Judas. He walked alongside Christ, was given a new name and title, was in Jesus’ inner circle even within the Twelve – yet still was rebuked for his lack of faith, verbally denied Christ multiple times, and deserted the Lord upon the hour of His death. Of course, the story does not end there – and Peter is three times asked if he loves Jesus and is ultimately restored to ministry with more boldness than before, even to the point of becoming a martyr.… Continued →

Indiana’s favorite blackened death metal band, Symphony of Heaven, have released a new single, and now a new video to accompany it. Both the song and the video are incredible. Check it out here!… Continued →

Sower, the self-described “biblical indie rock” project, have returned only moments after releasing their debut EP to show the firstfruits of their upcoming follow up EP that tells the narrative of the Gospel across four songs: Creation, Fall, Redemption, and Restoration. “Creation”, serving appropriately as the first single, is out now and tells the controversial tale of God’s good design for humankind and the world in which we live. The song pulls heavily from Genesis and presents listeners with reminders of the world pre-fall. Listen below and stay tuned for more news on the full EP soon!… Continued →

The Christian indie scene suffered a great loss last week, losing notable drummer Geoff Riley, known best for his immaculate time-keeping skills in the band Puller. The band was formed by Mike Lewis (ex-For Love Not Lisa, secular grunge/post-hardcore band), and hailed from Oklahoma. Mike posted the news of Geoff’s death, and some very poignant thoughts about Riley’s life and artistic contributions to the independent music scene via Instagram. Because it can’t really be said any better than this, I’m linking the post and including the entire text here: Geoff Riley Instagram Announcement “Hearing the news of my friend and music partner Geoff Riley passing is an overwhelming devastating loss.… Continued →

Feeble Attempt are finally dropping their collaborative melodic skate punk debut album. The album is titled “Absolute Trash” but it is far from that, I mean polar opposite from anything resembling trash, we’ll save that for Five Iron Frenzy (lovingly). There are a ton of killer guest vocalists that fill out this release including Josh from Dogwood and Saint Didacus, Peter from Over It and Runner Runner, Adam from Homegrown and Radical Radical, and loads more. Did I say a former member of Means is part of this project?… Continued →

The Christian punk/indie/whatever scene isn’t limited to the United States. I can think of relevant bands from literally every inhabited continent, which is a truly wonderful thing. Punk band Homonovux call Mexico home, specifically the Yucatan region. They’ve released two EPs since forming a few years ago. Their musical inspiration comes primarily from 90s punk rock (new school punk, skate punk, and a little bit of pop-punk too), but their lyrical inspiration is the message of salvation. This point is made very clear on their Bandcamp page (https://homonovux.bandcamp.com/… Continued →

Alternative/folk/pop duo Say-So comprised married couple Jim and Kim Thomas. They had actually been making music together for over a decade when their eponymous debut was released in 1997 for Organic Records. The album featured a fresh take on folksy, rootsy, alternative pop-rock that was ‘light’ enough to appeal to fans of CCM, yet unconventional enough to appeal to listeners with more alternative-leaning tastes. The band’s sound sat comfortably with artists like Sixpence None the Richer (especially their earlier material), Rich Young Ruler, and Five O’Clock People.… Continued →

Indie pop duo Bon Voyage was a collaboration of Jason Martin (Starflyer 59, and about a dozen others) and his wife Julie on vocals. The project was somewhat accurately described as “Starflyer with female vocals,” which is not inaccurate though not really complete either. Whereas SF59 added layers and layers of guitars and fuzz, Bon Voyage stripped things back to the pop essentials. Julie’s vocals are akin to Julee Cruise, most famous for her work on the Twin Peaks soundtracks. The band released three albums for BEC and/or Tooth and Nail, and we haven’t heard from them since 2008.… Continued →

Zane Vickery’s upcoming album, Interloper, is undeniably one of emotional weight. That reality doesn’t downplay the joy, hope, and healing that are just as prevalent. Vickery’s final single, “Sad Dads Club,” explores themes of personal shortcomings, trying to keep up with the Joneses, and going numb to the world – all while reflecting on childlike wonder and how in moments where we feel like we’re barely moving forward, God can carry us through to the finish line. Musically, it’s a bright, synth-laden indie track with modulated guitars, Vickery’s incredible trademark vocals, and a huge mid-song crescendo.… Continued →

Possession was a thrash metal band (with speed metal, black metal and death metal tendencies) from Kansas. They released one full-length album and 2 EPs in the mid-90s (as well as a 2-disc compilation of all recordings in 2020), and despite their innovative, genre-bending sound, managed to stay very underground. To evade a controversy with secular metal label Metal Merchant–and some alleged wrongdoing on the part of the label–Possession self-released their recordings, to much critical acclaim but to no commercial success. Ironically, what made them a listener’s and critic’s favorite, yet kept them in the underground, was precisely their unique take on extreme metal.… Continued →
