Title: Audioslave some food for thought...
Post by: Coyote on December 10, 2003, 10:15:56 PM
I've been interested in Audioslave for some time now. I love their music and actually started listening to the lyrics. They seem to lean towards a Christian theme... example


SHOW ME HOW TO LIVE
CHOROUS

Nail in my hand
From my creator
You gave me life
Now show me how to live

Yeah, a lot of non-Christian bands have Christian sounding lyrics. Artists like Evinecance, Prefect circle, Veridical Horizon, Bob Marley, Jimmy Eat World, Puff Daddy, and DC talk. ;D Evinecance and DC talk even did time in Christian Charts! ;)

As much as people want to deny it, Christianity is a part of the culture. Love it or hate it, it is here!

Yeah, Audioslave is pretty cool. I've been wanting that CD for a while now, as I am a huge fan of Rage Against the Machine. Not so much Soundgarden, but Chris Cornell's voice isn't too bad.

A Perfect Circle? Jimmy Eat World? Christian? Wow, I must be missing something here.

And that's a funny way to spell "vertical," Tibby. And "evanescence." I thought you were a college student?

You are. We are talking about non-Christian band with Christian sounding lyrics, not Christian bands.

Explanation for Vertical- It is finals week (you will understand in a few years, if you‘re not in prison ;) ). I can spell the parts of cell for you without error, if you’d like.

Explanation for evanescence- I’m not a fan, and that isn’t even a real word, so spelling doesn't count :P ;D

Besides, while I am in college, I am also a kines major. If I had good spelling, grammar, and handwriting, they would kick me out of the program. ;D

Nah, I actually HATE their message. Good music, in my opinion, however.

No, I understand. Jimmy Eat World's lyrics don't have much Christian substance to them, as far as I can tell. And I'm not really familiar with A Perfect Circle. I know they're nu-metal, and I guess I just never pictured them writing "Christian" lyrics.

It is finals week (you will understand in a few years, if you‘re not in prison  ).

We have finals in high school. And if I ever went to prison, I'd break out.

that isn’t even a real word, so spelling doesn't count

Good to know, you little Socialist! ;) ;D

Yeah, high school Finals, I went thru 4 years of it, always passed, never studied. This is College, bub. Not Jr. College, either. :-\ Oh, and those "dual-credit" college courses. Don't know if your allowed to take them are your grade in school yet, but I don't care what High Schools says, they are NOT just like college! Man, that was a load of crap! Using a college text book doesn't make it a college course! >:(

Evanescence... well, I'm be...  Just when you though Word covered all the words in the english language... That beign the case, I wish they woud behave as their name implies!
