[QUOTE="Ph413, post: 74365898, member: 390579"] Quick disclaimer for the title: want to get opinion from metal listeners that are christians so all of you who are saying "metal is devil's music" etc. please avoid commenting here because a non-argumented opinions are unnecessary. I'm aware that similar topics have been active before, but it was quite a long time ago so I think it's okay if I start this fresh one here. So, to get to the topic. I'm fairly new to the metal genre, I've been listening for about two years now, but I'm that type of guy who's hard on finding new bands and new music. I'm more like listen-on-repeat-until-I'm-sick-of-it guy. I'm listening to both christian and secular bands. I think it is fine to listen to secular bands as long as they are religion-neutral or not anti-christian or not mocking God. To not make this post long, point is I'm very much into Slipknot at the moment. It's just something that's resonating with me currently. Now, I've did some research to see anything that could've associate band with satanism or something similar. I can't say that they passed the test 100% percent clear. Obviously, there are some of the references in Iowa (which is the album I'm so into currently), both lyrically and with it's album cover. But, as much as I found out, lyrics are mostly metaphors and not to be taked literally and those goat heads are something that sells. I don't know for sure and that's why I'm here. I want to take my personal liking of the band to the side and take an objective look at it.
