Bands To Check Out

[Didymus]

Hey everyone,

Every so often I'll try to put up info for a different rock band to check out. Some of them may be just a cool Christian band, some Catholic and some just to promote the pro-life movement. I'll try to let you know as we go.

I found these guys via rock-for-life so they're definitely pro-life. They may actually be Christian as well, cuz Im finding some good overtones in their work. I cant find a real website. As you can see the link just takes you to their myspace, which is listed as vowofsilence.net

Punk

This is a band that some of you hopefully already know. Catholic Punk out of Austria. They've played at WYD and have done some European touring. Some good stuff for you punk listeners out there. They do some pretty good covers live as well, if you wanna look em up on you tube.

[DemonSlayer]

Crutch's (pre-Aletheian) pro-life song was Proverbs.
[quote]Born dead in a dead world.
Broken promises of flesh and spirit.
Broken dreams of life and love.
Self-absorption drowns out pure potential.
Cold convenience steals an unborn soul.
Hardened hearted self-concern enveloped in the grasp of fear.
Judgment blinded by emotion, alludes to instincts of self-preservation.
Lifeless hand never grasped another.
Stone-deaf ears never had a chance to hear the silent cries that never rang out.
Empty eyes never gazed upon the beauty.
Stillborn heart never ached nor broke nor loved.
A flame snuffed out before the light of day.
A way of life preserved rather than a life.
Slaughter of the innocent; exercise of choice.
"Life is what we make it," and we take before birth.[/quote]

Underoath is also a pro-life band.

Catholic Rock/Garage/Punk

A catholic band out of Toulouse, France. I can't understand a word he's saying. But some of their stuff is pretty cool. Like a mix of Chili Peppers, White Stripes, and the Ramones. I think their lead singer is a monk, which is pretty sweet. If anyone knows Phrench on here, it'd be nice to get some translationage.
