Why Christian Metal Makes the Best Worship Music

- The love of Jesus never felt so brutal. Christian metal is one of my favorite genres of music to listen to, so I wanted to share with the world why you shouldn't sleep on it and why God is glorified by metal music just as much as He is by regular worship music.

My favorite Christian metal band is Tourniquet I also like 4 Vengeance Rising
I've been looking for a list of similar bands is there a website I could go to
Nice Robert! I don't know of any sort of website to help you find similar bands, but I'll pin your comment so others can at least give you their suggestions
@@JosiahNordquist thanks
Check out Mortification, these guys thrash hard. This link goes to the music video for "Terminate Damnation"

@@ZachHighwind thanks
A friend gave me a Tourniquet CD back in 1996. I listened to it and I thought that if this is music that can glorify God then I am interested. I gave my life to Jesus on 3 September 1996 and have been listening ever since. My all time favourite band is Living Sacrifice. More bands you should consider: Mortification, Demon Hunter, Disciple and even some older stuff like Red Sea. Do not worry about what others think as long as you praise God.
I also noticed that the lyrics in Christian metal tend to be much deeper and more thought provoking than a large majority of modern contemporary Christian songs you hear on the radio. Or maybe the messages in the metal songs come across with more purpose because of the intensity of delivery. I know it’s definitely impacted my life in a positive way. Great video dude.
That's how I feel too. I feel like radio-friendly contemporary Christian music has to be written in a certain way so that it pleases its wide audience of listeners which doesn't usually leave much room for creative or inspired lyrics. Or like you said, the gravity of their lyrics doesn't match the intensity of their music. Maybe I'm wrong, but also like you said, there's no denying the positive impact Christian metal music has had on my life, so I know where I stand lol. Thanks so much man!
This! Many of the lyrics on Sunday morning are just...silly...or so dated they make no sense. Christian metal is just so much deeper.
Yea for sure. Some of P86 s lyrics seem too ironic, well I don't know if that's the right word, at least on the T H album. But the lyrics in and the rest will follow seem to say more.
You worded my feelings well
I feel like thats the same with unchristian metal too compared to radio pop hits metal has always had way better lyricism and more thought provoking lyrics but thats just my opinion
I'm a freshman at a Christian college and I'm giving a speech defending Christian Metal. This video is a very helpful resource for me to quote and cite. Thank you, Josiah.
You're welcome Hannah! I hope the speech goes well and that it leaves an impact on your listeners!
Check out Orison by Hope For The Dying. It’s a great worship song. The album it’s on, Dissimulation, is probably my all time favorite album.
would you be willing to send that to me? I'd love to read that .
Christian metal has the potential to embody God even more than popular worship music. True. I’ve believed that for a long time.
In fact, I’ve almost stopped listening to popular Christian music.
Theocracy, Wolves at the Gate, Demon Hunter, HB - all these are amazing bands - putting the Christian worldview in poetic perfection.
Exactly Aaron! And those are some great bands 🔥🔥🔥
I was finally saved in my early 30s. But in high school I fell in love with several Christian metalcore and metal bands (I still love the bands’ Christian albums to this day). Some of my favorite songs by those bands were the more outwardly Christian songs (Chorus of Angels by Haste the Day is still one of my favorite songs of all time). Even though I wasn’t a Christian yet, those songs really moved something in my heart. Now that I am a Christian, those songs mean even more to me. ✝️🙏🏻
That's an awesome testimony! God's at work even when we don't realize it. Thanks for sharing!
So cool to find another Christian CZcamsr who likes metal!! I enjoyed your take on this, you brought up points I've never thought of before, like how dark things get in the Bible haha. Thanks for the encouragement dude!
Thanks so much! Us Christian metal CZcamsrs are small in number but mighty in Spirit lol. Keep up the good work yourself!
God always answers my petitions and prayers perfectly. I asked God to reveal new sources of inspiration to ignite my spirit helping me stay encouraged in the warfare against myself along with what the world brings. There is a time and place for everything, but Sunday church worship occasionally leaves me wanting. The raw intensity of Christ following bands is what fuels me, and uplifts me, dealing with the extremes of pressures going on inside of me. "J", I am incredibly glad I was led to your channel after my morning worship starting this new day. I feel the Holy Spirit pouring over me, and it is even more well with my soul. "Subscribed"!!!
This!!!! This was power bro!!!! Amen. Spot on, I was jammining all consuming fire from War of ages and seemingly happy and in a vibey mood, next thing I broke into tears of admiration and thankfulness that God had given me an outlet again through music, always been a metal fan, but never indulged in christian metal. Since giving my life "again" last year to October after many years of backsliding, I have been searching deep to try find myself. Being able to jam air guitar whilst calling for The Holy Spirits All Consuming Fire, a sudden rush of appreciation and ugh I dont even know came over me, and I realised, I am called to do this, promote it, To speak to a new generation of kids, teenagers and adults to be inspired by the Word through Christian metal!
That's awesome man! So glad to hear you've found your calling in Jesus. I get emotional too sometimes when jamming out to this music. The goodness of God has a way of slapping you in the face haha!
Right on. The bible ain't pg. Its rated x.
It's not for the faint of heart that's for sure lol
I think HolyName are also another great example. Some good points in your video! I can also personally say, that heavy worship really brings me to my knees and drives truth much harder. I often think of how all creation was made for His glory and worship, from the whisper of the wind to the earth shaking erupting volcano. Jesus said ‘even the stones would cry out’ For me, worship music in the form of Metal is often deeper, bolder, harder and more truth filled. 🙌🏻
I discovered Christian metal a few years ago and it's now a permanent fixture in my Sunday playlist. I love the rawness and deepness of it, which is a welcomed answer to the shallow, pillowy mainstream Christian music that's cranked out at nauseum.
I love that! I agree that a lot of the Christian music that comes out today feels rinsed and repeated, so other genres like Christian hip hop and metal add some much needed character and depth.
I've recently found Jesus and I've always been a Rock and Metal fan. Never has music felt so powerful. Its like Jesus took something I loved and amplified it times a million. Praise The Lord🎉❤
I am almost positive there have been souls won to Christ from listening to metal or rap💪
It's how we worship, with spirit and truth!!
I agree Viviana! 🤘
Yes Viviana, (pretty name sis) Stryper's heavenly metal helped reach me in '86, so yeah! And I lead worship with my wife Ursula "skillfully with a LOUD noise" on my Roland drumkit!
Greetings from Dubai I'm an old school Christian metal head - Tourniquet, Mortification, Living Sacrifice, Deliverance , Believer and Ofcourse Stryper etc etc while I do listen and enjoy modern Christian bands like Zao, Demon hunter, AILD (debatable haha) Impending Doom and the like I think lyrically the 80's/90's was much more evangelistic and yes Worship in nature
What's up man? It's crazy for me to think that this video is being watched on the other side of the world, but I'm so glad it is haha!
I can't say I've listened to much Christian metal from the 80s or 90s, but from the songs I have heard I would definitely agree with you that Christian metal used to be more explicitly evangelistic. I'm not sure if that has to do with the genre becoming more secularized or that was just more of a trendy way to write music back then, but either way I think it's a good observation to make.
Check out Rusha ero spelling for Russia. They have a testimony recording and where a RUSSIAN Christian hard rock band. As in in the 70' and 80's - big time illegal
@@thebrizzell I remember hearing one song on a compilation tape , they were called Ruscha eh?
I love Impending Doom!
@@thebrizzell Saw "Ruscha" live in Newport News, Virginia around '88-'89 while I was drumming in my own Christian metal trio "Vessel". Incredible concert!
I used to think Metal was a bunch of nonsense, but as I listen to it more I had a change of thought 😁
Haha I'm so glad to hear that Jean! It's definitely not for everyone, but I'm glad you gave it a shot and liked it!
For today has to be my favorite christian metal because of the lyrics and how clean you can understand them. Wish they still made music tho
As a man who rediscovered Faith after many years of being lost, who now has a stronger faith than I ever thought was possible, and a man who's played guitar and bass for 30+ years, primarily playing metal most of these years, I am extremely excited to now be making metal music for God and for the glory of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Brother, you got it right. I really like your point on the counterculture element. That's definitely among the top reasons why Christian Metal as worship works for me, right after biblically sound lyrics in a lot of bands, especially DH, and, well, just the sound of it. Thank you for some of the recommendations here. I would definitely add Project 86 to the list.
When you mentioned counterculture it immediately reminded me of the old, traditional organ compositions and masses, that just up until recently dominated the Roman Catholic tradition, as well as the old chants, Roman and Byzantine. I listen to all of that almost the same amount of time, depending of course on the mood and circumstances. I found the combination of the three to be a really complete musical worship setting, and the reason really is what you said about the ballads on the heavy albums - the contrast they make in portraying either God's greatness or the struggles of life. I don't know if you have experience with that type of thing, but I seriously recommend it.
Project 86 goes hard lol. I've never listened to the organ compositions or chants, but now I'm incredibly curious to. I love the idea of glorifying God in ways that could make the culture pop an eyebrow, and listening to Roman and Byzantine chants seems right up that alley lol. Thanks for the recommendation!
If yall thought those bands dropped hard you should check out convictions and as lions and lambs. As lions and lambs is christian but has the drops and screams of death metal
GREAT job on this Josiah!! Totally LOVED this!!!! - Pastor Bob, Sanctuary International
I've been waiting years to hear someone speak on this topic. I agree with you 100%. I've tried to explain this to my fellow brothers and sisters, but they sadly don't seem to understand it. For Today introduced me to the Christian Metal scene back in 2013 ✝️
It was a hard topic for me to put into words too, but I'm glad it resonated with you! I've learned that maybe it's just not for some people to understand this side of heaven lol. Glad to call you a brother 🤘
Christian metal is often just pure scripture. Mortification, VR, Deliverance, TQT and others buried a lot if scripture in my brain.
I would say Becoming the Archetype's music is utterly beautiful and does a better job bringing me beforecthe Throne than anything I've ever heard in church.
I agree Scott! I love Wolves at the Gate because you can find the scripture in their music so easily. Thanks for watching!
BTA is genius!
When you brought up “White as Snow” by Haste the Day, I literally out loud said: “YESSSS”. Great video!
It humbles me every time I listen to it lol. Glad to meet a fellow fan! Thanks so much!
The band saving Grace has an album called The King is coming and that is one of the best Christian metal albums of all time. Very old school death core and quite worshipful lyrics. Plus their song Revelation 6 is one of the most metal songs you'll ever hear... "A voice like thunder spake!... COME! And one by dreadful one, the four ri-ders approach, each bearing his own disaster. STEPHANOS! The crown and the bow, bent on bloody conquest.... allowwwwed. By the haaaand. Of Heeeeeee in powwwwwahhhhh....
I like that one of my favorite bands was mentioned first. Demon hunter is great. I don’t know your thoughts on ABR but I like them too
Demon Hunter is the GOAT! ABR is definitely solid too
My favorite worship songs from Demon Hunter is the tide begins to rise. Bridge just whoops my butt every time
Greetings from Bulgaria! I love You brother! I am a biker and always sharing the Gospel with my saddle brothers 😊. My favourite metal band is Sleeping giant. Their lyrics are amazing. I have Jewish roots and love the only true Moshiach, Yeshua❤!!!
I am listening and jewish ortodox metal ( yes it's exists) the name of the band is "Atzmus" and located in Argentina. Two of the band members are ortodox jews and the others are christians. Anyway my point that G-d is a " Man of war" Exodus 15:3, we are in spiritual battle , and you will not go to war by playing violin😂.
Like Rob Rock wrote: You can't kill a metal breed.
Be blessed in G-d' name!
Tithemi by sleeping giant is blatantly a t
Worship song with a brutal ending. Especially spiritually brutal. Reminds all that Jesus is coming back and when he does he's coming back in power and might and he will subjugate all his enemies and force them to bow. That's the most metal thing ever
That song is brutal lol. And I love that point. There's nothing soft about Jesus
Victory is my fav by them.
I used to listen to Christian metal before I was Christian. Oh Sleepers "in the wake of pigs" helped guide me toward salvation and I'll never stop listening to Christian metal.
Cool! Stryper's heavenly metal guided me in 1986!
My favorite bands: Diamonds to Dust, Impending Doom, War of Ages, Phineas, Hope For The Dying, Fit For a King, Becoming the Archetype, etc.
I loved your guitar cover of Murderer.
I find it amazing and glorious that Satan tried to have his own type of music (metal) and yet Jesus said no Satan metal belongs to me. Satan has no chance
I love that! To God be the glory!
Well said! Check out the '80's metal "Messiah Prophet" album covers...Jesus is rocking with a metal guitar!!!!
God bless heavy metal Christian bands
war of ages one of my favorite band
Thank you for this, this was a message from God truly. You helped bring out thoughts I've known to be true for a long time and put the truth out there for everyone to hear. Seriously thank you man.
You're welcome Alexander! I'm glad I was able to provide you some clarity!
Well said ☺️ I agree those more intense sounds and lyrics definitely have a place as we go through all the ups and downs life can bring us. Punk and metal have strengthened me and helped me with tough situations, all the more so for Christian metal.
Loved this video! A lot of us slightly older farts (54) really love this music because we were teens when secular metal was forming (Slayer, Megadeath, etc...) So as I slowly progress in my walk with Christ this music is a natural fit for me. It is not for Sunday morning (That is why hymnals were written) but the messaging allow the word to reach a wider audience. I just wish you would have put Impending Doom on your list. "My light unseen" is an amazing ballad, while "Murderer" is just deliciously aggressive.
Thanks Bill! I'm so glad you've been able to encounter God through heavier worship music. And to be honest with you, I haven't listened to Impending Doom that much. People keep telling me to listen to them but I haven't got around to it yet lol. I'm a sucker for ballads though, so I'll give the one you recommended a listen! Thanks for watching!
Speak for yourself! I'm 55 and can STILL tear up a mosh pit worshipping!
@@JosiahNordquist Stryper (Honestly, Together as One, All of Me), Idle Cure (So Many Faces, How Long, Contend for the Faith) as well as Whitecross (Walk with Me) had some great rock/metal ballads!
@@seanramsey2354 Yeah, don't know about tearing up a mosh pit, but I'm 64 and still playing and leading worship from my metal style double kick Roland kit!
Thanks for your time to bring thi vision, you should share a list of a lot of christian metal... thanks again!
Thanks Rafeal! Glad you liked it. And I'll see what I can do!
This is SUPER interesting to me. You think of stuff that was totally not on my radar. You deserve way more support. I’ll check these songs out, because the usual Christian contemporary stuff doesn’t usually do it for me these days lol
Haha thanks man. Like I said, they may very well not be up your alley, but I'm glad you're willing to give them a listen!
Got a LOT of suggestions for you if you are interested?! Bold Faith Productions...
Enjoyed the video. Stryper is my all time favorite band. Melodic metal with great lyrics. Very talented band! And their “pop” metal and ballads are awesome too!
This came up as a suggestion after binging Impending Doom. Great video! To anyone else finding this now, and you haven’t worshiped with ID, do it.
I love the Lord, and I love metal. I'm glad there are bands out there putting the two together in an interesting and heavy way. Love this video Josiah keep up the good work. Subscribed.
wow just found this video and can't even say how much I can relate! Thanks.
This was bang on, thanks for making it
I appreciate it Elijah! Thanks for watching!
Great video man!
Thanks Caleb! Glad you liked it!
I'm waiting for the Psalms to be metal, would be so awesome🔥
That would be sweet! They cover such a broad range of emotions and topics that I feel like that would fit metal perfectly
Great video!
Yes my dude, love it love it love it🙌
Haha thanks my guy! I appreciate the support!
Dude, holy smokes. Well said! New sub!
First video I seen of yours. Love it
Thanks Mack! I appreciate it!
Great video! Made me subscribe.
Thanks so much Ilpo!
Love the TBR swag man!
Haha thanks Brandon! Had to represent!
Love your books!
I'm not a throat-singing lover, but love good tight metal. Been a Demon Hunter fan since their first album. By the way; I'm 66. Never too old.
I absolutely love Christan metalcore
Christian metal is so underrated with alot of potential to show the passion faith we feel as christians
Dude, amazing vid. Got a sub here!
Thank you Noa! I really appreciate your support!
Love the book on your shelf with the picture of Deitrich Bonhoeffer!!!
Bonhoeffer is my guardian angel watching over me in the background of all my videos lol. It's a super good book!
When I was 14 I was suicidal and had been for a few years prior. I listened to metal music because it helped and I found peace in it. I listened to for today as I lay dying, war if ages, fit for a king and many more bands that I had no idea were christian until one day at a christian book store I saw August burns red albums. It had me so confused because I thought metal was demonic, but then realized that over half the music I was listening to was in fact christian and it made me realize God was watching it for me. Ever since then I believe that music styles like rap, metal, and other genres that have a bad rap can actually be home to groups of Christians that are tighter knit than contemporary christian groups, and is probably more effective at spreading God's word, because they're where more people who don't know God are
I listen to this christian metal band called FOR TODAY. You should look up the song called Saul of Tarsus. Thank you for the video it's really a blessing. Glory to our father!
So many Great Bands out there. Love the old stuff too. Check out Sletchvalk and at the moment I'm listening to Fit For A King 😀
Awesome! Please do more content like this
Thanks Guillermo! And I'll start brainstorming some new ideas!
@@JosiahNordquist I am a methodist metalhead, biker, guitar player pastor and I have always struggled to explain what you did in such an awesome way 🤘🏼😎
Dang it sounds like you've got an awesome gig lol. I'm really glad I was able to articulate those thoughts, and I really do appreciate your kind words!
Skillet's Collide was their heaviest album, and arguably their best.
Forsaken is awesome. And Under My Skin is the least ballady lighter track.
Check out Energy and Cycle Down as well. From that track. And then yes, Comatose - the track is transcendent.
Savior was always my favorite off Collide, but I'm definitely due to relisten to the whole album. Thanks for the recommendation!
Failure On by Beloved is one I still go to daily for this very reason
A year later... appreciate this video. Love me some war and peace, resurrected...
Thanks Mike! I was just jamming to those albums earlier!
Absolutely agree with you! 💯🎶
I still find it somewhat funny when you say I'm talking about the heavy stuff but your heavy music is still on the softer end of what I listen to. With bands like Impending doom, Diamonds to dust, and with blood comes cleansing
Narnia, signum regis, seventh day slumber, innerwish, disciple, divinefire, skillet, theocracy, seventh avenue, golden resurrection,p.o.d, michael sweet, firelight, spoken, love and death are the bands i listen to. No growling, no screaming just good music. Spotify is a good source for that.
No screaming? Michael Sweet "screams" very well, but not in the metal core/*beautycore "screamo" vein nor (thank God) does he growl! **But, I do/did love me some GFM while the 3 English sisters were rocking together! And I love ABR too...mostly their intense instrumentals...not the screamo/growl stuff!
The argument I always use is this... we are in a war... how many armies have ever gone into battle using a lullaby as their battle music and if so how many of those won their battle?
Regardless of the use of algorithms, I don't agree that metal is any better than any other genre for worship. I believe that all genres are equally appropriate for worship. Having extremely eclectic music taste, I feel that the song "You" by Jaci Velasquez is just as good as "Way, Truth, Life" by Mortification. Both songs express love for God each song employees lyrics appropriate to its genre. Metal is what I like to listen to first thing in the morning. It's what I call musical caffeine. I recommend Mortification, Living Sacrifice, Antidemon, Hope for the Dying, Pantokrator, Metanoia, Antestor, Saving Grace and Devine Symphony.
Very well put! I'm surprised I've never seen this before. I'm a worshipping metalhead. A few of my favs are Sleeping Giant, Becoming the Archetype(pure metal genius btw), and though they are billed as secular their lyrics are CLEARLY about Him, Chevelle. The argument I always use regarding faith metal is, WE are in BATTLE! How often did armies go INTO battle with a lullaby as their battle hymn and even IF so did they win?
Spot on, man!
Thank you 🙌 Love what you're doing as well!
@@JosiahNordquist Thanks so much!
I love Demon Hunter, FFAK, For Today, War of Ages, The Devil Wears Prada... I also like Sleeping Giants, Impending Doom, Memphis May Fire and Phinehas. That Haste the Day song you mentioned is amazing (just looked it up).
God bless you.
Thanks Pete! God bless you as well!
Great video! Yes! Jesus was extreme and he was aggressive! Christian metal is healthy aggression! 🤘🔥
Regardless of what your opinion is on Skillet, John Cooper has my deepest respect for his out spokeness in the faith.
Anyways...I'll continuing to watch the next 9 minutes of your video...
Oh yeah, don’t get me wrong, I think Skillet is still doing awesome things for God’s kingdom, and I’ve turned to John Cooper a few times just to see how a Christian who’s been in the spotlight for a while responds to different things. I think he’s very wise and very well spoken. I just don’t listen to his music much anymore lol. Thanks for sticking with me haha!
My favorite Christian Metal bands are: Stryper, & Bloodgood.
I haven't listened to them, but I'm sure they're awesome!
@@JosiahNordquist They're super awesome and they have great songs
@@JosiahNordquist You're joking...right? Actually after a thyroidectomy (Isaiah 53:5 for a full speedy recovery) Michael Sweet's doctor said light duty with no more than 5 lbs lifting, so he posted that he looked at his axe and said this is under 5 lbs and is currently finishing up Stryper's (15th) new 2024 album
@@charlesrubitschung7592 Hopefully he's joking about that LOL! (RIP) Michael Bloodgood!
What I learned from this: God's a metalhead.
1st John 1:5
God is light and in him is no darkness at all

Thanks for the video! I like the logo of the shirt you are wearing, what is it?
Thanks for watching! The logo on the shirt is the logo for the Blessed Resistance, Demon Hunter's fan community
Bravo, Sir. Bravo.
Thank you sir!
I am a Christian that is struggling with faith, so I want to say why Christian metal is my favorite genre.
Contemporary Christian artists may bring up dark subject matter in between songs with a 15 to 45 minute sermon, followed by yet another generic 4 chord song with 15 band members and 9 guitarists.
Demon Hunter and Impending Doom are bands that I resonate with more because they are more open about the brutality about the human condition and that faith is NOT AN EASY THING.
I am a person that HATES aggressive positivity. And the Christian music you hear on Smile FM is the very stuff that is Drowning the average suburban neighborhood into thinking everything is just perfectly fine.
I've been bullied all my life for my faith. By "believers" and the ones who aren't. Despite my views not being extreme, everyone treats me like I am, and that's why I resonate with bands like these so much.
