Flyleaf rocks. What many people don’t know is that most of their songs are about God. Acoustic and original versions after the jump. Read more…

Do you still believe in love? This is a Christian band that broke up even before their CD was released. They were called Rage of Angels. Two of the members went on to form Steelheart. Video after the jump. Read more…
Here’s a good live version of Rez Band’s song “Rain Dance” Read more…
Ah, yes. The late 80s. I can’t believe Steve Taylor is on Youtube. But there he was. Read more…
I grew up with Michael Knott’s music. He’s.. well.. let’s just say his music is one-of-a-kind. I’d describe it as Christian folk/rock/alternative, etc music. There’s mostly live stuff on youtube from Michael’s work, but I found a promo video that has the song “Hospital” in it. The song is from 1:38 to 3:35 in the video after the jump. Of course the whole thing is worth your time: Read more…
Wenn Du nicht weisst, wer das ist, dann sollst Du erschossen werden. Ich kann’s kaum glauben, daβ ich Warrant überhaupt gekauft hab’. Vor ungefähr 15 jahren natürlich.
Video nach dem Sprung …
Schäffer…
update: youtube video seemed to be unavailable for some reason. found another and inserted that one, instead. (youtube has been having serious embed issues lately…)
This Saturday comes, I believe, the only music video ever made by Circle of Dust. Circle of Dust was a Christian industrial rock band started in New York. Apparently they disbanded in 1998 and lead singer, Scott Albert went on to form Celldweller.
The video is Telltale Crime. I believe it was originally on an album (or another band entirely) entitled Mindwarp (1992) and then released again on Brainchild by Circle of Dust in 1994. I don’t know. It all gets confusing.
The song, Telltale Crime, talks about economic disaster, one world government, govt deficits, etc. I only recently noticed how relevant the song is to today’s climate. It has a mixture of industrial and thrash metal seemingly combined. Klayton’s rough, yet melodic voice belts out the lyrics with precision that even unseasoned metal heads can understand.

When my life started funneling down into hell a couple of years ago, one of the first positive steps I took to brace myself was to get away from the negative music that only perpetuated the feelings of hopelessness, low self-esteem, and impending feelings of doom.
I’m not saying the music I was listening to was bad, per se, but it certainly did not lift me up or make me feel any better and this is likely just a step that helped me more personally than it could have helped somebody else. I heard this song on 102.3 about two years ago and despite the fact that I wasn’t really into rock/pop back then, it really lifted me up and gave me hope. And yes, I was disappointed a few days ago when my clock radio came on and I heard KRMG instead of music.

Everybody else has their version of this weekly music video blogging thing. Dang it, I might as well have my own unique version, as well.
These will all be music that I like, of course. Mostly stuff I grew up with. Mostly Christian music. Not all will be, though. All of them will be, however, from my own stash of music that I have now or have had in the past… or definitely plan to buy soon.
So I don’t run everybody off on the first episode, I chose a more tame rock song for the first round. Perhaps as I progress, I’ll insert some of the crazy, screaming, metal insanity. But I’ll spare your ears this time. Video after the jump. Read more…
