I am new to this forum....

But I would like to share with you guys not only my favorite CHRISTIAN band, but my favorite band in general.

They are called "The Devil Wears Prada". You might be thinking....why did they choose that name?!? It comes from an anti-materialistic mindset as stated by vocalist Mike Hranica, instead of directly referring to the novel with the same title. If you listen to this band and say that there is no way they are Christians, and that it is "devil music"....then you are a hypocrite.

A quote from Mike Hranica (vocalist) : "It's the same concept as our lyrics 'emeralds hold no hope' and many many others. What we believe it to mean is that possessions don't matter at all and someday everyone will realize that this is true. When standing before God, he won't care about your sweet Prada scarf or Gucci shoes or whatever. It's a Christian reasoning for the name, we didn't name it to attempt at being fashionable."

IF YOU WANT TO SEE VIDEO OF THIS BAND....GO TO YOUTUBE AND TYPE IN "THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA"

LYRICS
Condemned,
My regret is not writing more for you, Lord.
As this ocean comes to be deeper our vessel becomes less stable,
Look to the sky.
Encourage the elements of God,
Rather than the jars that contain them.
If only the ingredients of man were of such elements.
If only. [x2]
With great horror, I admit that we all live off the lust and misfortune of others.
All lives off the lust and misfortune of others,
This is vision, not contradiction.
I see greed in the face of a priest,
And deterioration in the walls of cathedrals.
What was right, now wrong,
Casts a cold reflection on glory,
Look to the sky.

Lyrics to another one of my favorite songs by TDWP:

"Assistant to the Regional Manager"
These writings are to those who have weeped.
These writings are to those who haven't looked deeply enough into the correct resolution.

Wrong again but stronger now, we can face this.
Fight life with life.
Fight life with life.

All glory to the one in existence. Bring upon your name, your grace, your everything.

Hold hands and stare into the circle.
What are we looking at?

Rumors and rumors and rumors.
Rumors and rumors and rumors.

Assembly: disintegration.

Rumors and rumors and rumors.

Perish.

Tombstones serve as mirrors and the graves are infinite.
Take a look through the lens and through your eyes.
End the partitioning.

Wrong again but stronger now, we can face this.
Fight life with life.
Fight life with life.

Enemies, we'll go for your throat.

I saw them live last summer and it was mind blowing. Ended up with just a bloody lip from the mosh pit, but it was an awesome time. My favorite part was when the lead singer talked for a full minute to the crowd about how they believe in God and that their songs are written for Him.

You what? They are the best band out there. I love the fact they play on mainstream tours and stand up there and tell people what their all about.

I also like the fact that at their web-site they have t-shirts that all the money goes to an orginization that funds chemo treatment for struggleing wemon with breast cancer.

Again the best band out there and amazing guy's in the band.
