  2. Carl The Viking says:

    Beneath the sky is really good but they’re broken up now which is sad, but yea as someone else mentioned as i lay dying is good too, and idk if u would consider these guys metal, they’re kind of lighter, haste the day is pretty good too

  3. Lady Death says:

  9. Candy says:

    Definetely I would say Demon Hunter is absolutely amazing, try to see them live, one of the best live bands i’ve seen in years.

  10. John says:

    You have to listen to August Burns Red, the best christian metal ever!!!

  11. metal4christ says:

    With Blood Comes Cleansing
    The Damascus Intervention
    A Thousand Times Repent

    With blood comes cleansing
    for today
    ecryptor
    sleeping giant
    mychildren mybride
    The horsemen apocolypse
    Underneath the Gun
    Sacrificum
    living sacrifice
    Rehumanize
    War of Ages
    Feast Eternal
    AWAS
    Earth from above

    there are many more but impending doom is defenately the best! :)

  13. DeathMetalAngel says:

    Impending Doom is awesome, but they’re pretty brutal too so you’d have to be into that. You could try August Burns Red, Once Nothing is real good too. Ummm…The Devil Wears Prada is always good and so is As I Lay Dying. With Blood Comes Cleansing, Bloody Sunday, and Bloodlined Caligraphy are good. Well that’s all I can think of man.

    PEACE

  14. Spider77 says:

    Alove for Enemies
    August Burns Red
    Becoming the Archetype
    Exodus
    Living Sacrifice (no longer together but one of the best Christian Death Metal bands imo)

  15. Bryce says:

    whitechapel is not christian. their lyrics are based on jack the ripper and very anti God.

    some good christian death metal is

    rogers met an iranian
    in the midst of lions
    the crimson armada
    your chance to die
    afterimage
    sleep serapis sleep
    woe of tyrants
    allatus adeo
    as hell retreats
    the blood reckoning
    the burial
    common yet forbidden
    darkness before dawn
    demorior
    dead in existence
    ghost of a fallen age
    glass casket
    the goodnight horizon
    the great commission
    i built the cross
    lewis vs clark
    marcus aurelius
    necrobiotic
    mortal treason
    on solid ground
    a plea for purging
    sacrificium
    second thief
    see the light
    settle the sky
    seven last words of christ
    sinai beach
    texas in july
    a thousand times repent
    underneath the gun
    vanguard
    7horns 7eyes

  20. thechristchex says:

    if you want REAL death metal, ignore all the people who say that demon hunter and TDWP is death metal
    here are some RRALLY good bands
    Feast Eternal (melodeath)
    Miseration (album: the mirroring shadow) (Death metal)
    Indwelling (Tech Death Metal ala suffocation)
    Sympathy ( Tech Death Metal
    Tortured Conscience (Brutal Death Metal ala suffocation)
    Skymetal (Death Metal ala REALLY crappy deicide)
    Metanonia (Groove Death Metal)
    At The Throne Of Jedgement (Deathcore-ish ala Job for a cowboy)
    Obliteration (album:Dying Age) (Death Metal ala deicide)
    The Empty Tomb (Brutal Death Metal ala Devourment, Drowning in phormaldyhyde)

  21. Jeremiah says:

    Okay, Demon Hunter, UnderOath, As I Lay Dying, and August Burns Red are NOT Death Metal. They range from Post Hardcore Metal to just Heavy Metal. A good band would be Frost Like Ashes but they are Black Metal and they ARE Christian

  22. matt says:

    FOR YOUR IMFORMATION…AS I LAY DYING IS DEFINITLY DEATH METAL….LOOK EM UP LISTEN TO THEM….THEY ARE AND THATS THAT SO SHUT UP AND EAT A BAGEL!!!!

  23. Cheri says:

    Where do you find these cd’s?? I have been trying to find metal/death metal CHRISTIAN bands for a long time but very limited in places like Borders, Barnes & Noble and bible book stores……

  24. Tyler says:

    if you want to buy cd’s then go to itunes lol if u want to download them then go to http://www.mp3boo.com they have alot of stuff! you should also check out onward to olympas they’ve just recently signed onto facedown records and are awesome! AILD’s newest album the powerless rise is awesome! all other bands that i listen to have already been posted so yeah lol becoming the archetype is awesome! necrotizing fasciitis is one of there best align with dichotomy, how great thou art and beyond adaptation has one of the most epic breakdowns ever!

  25. Steve says:

    I haven’t seen anyone mention Living Sacrifice whom I think are the heaviest of the christian bands.
    It may be a contradiction but Bruce Fitzhugh sounds like the devil.

  26. Andrew says:

    As I Lay Dying is not deathmetal. Yeah, I like en, but they are watt too soft haha. Try metalcore

  27. D24 says:

    Not Death Metal or Anything More Screamo But Still an awesome listen is blessthefall and confide deep lyrics..

    With Blood Comes Cleansing
    The Damascus Intervention
    A Thousand Times Repent
    As I Lay Dying
    White Chapel
    Blindside

    Umm… Whitechapel is definately death metal, but they most certainly are not Christian. And Blindside is in no way death metal.

  29. Andrew says:

    Hey. DON’T CLASSIFY METAL WITH SUB-GENRES. They don’t exist! Metal is metal! Just because a band says they’re “Platypus Metal” doesn’t make that a new type of music, does it? xD

    Anyways, Attack Attack is definately not a christian band.

    I do recomend:

    Oh, Sleeper
    As I Lay Dying
    August Burns Red
    MyChildren MyBride
    Agraceful
    Emarosa
    Underoath
    Demon Hunter
    Living Sacrifice
    Impending Doom
    War of Ages
    Woe of Tyrants

    That’s all I can think of. :\

  30. karlOz! says:

    i built the cross (are similar to disfiguring the goddess)*brutal deathcore*
    the famine (good band)
    woe of tyrants (melodic/technical deathcore
    earth from above (deathcore)
    a thousand times repent (maybe gore-deathcore)

  31. Metalcore/deathcore/happyness :) says:

    OK before ya’ll start arguing again I got a few things to say that ya’ll may or may not wunna here. Firstly the question was what are some good christian DEATH metal bands! Death metal is a very different part of metal from THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA or BLESSTHEFALL or WHITECHAPEL or AS I LAY DYING, and yes White Chapel is very far from christian, don’t give this perc metalCORE bands because he/she did not ask for them. And just because you heard from your friend who heard from his dad who asked his mom who was reading a book and got a weird idea that some band like White Chapel is christian doesn’t mean it’s TRUE! And quit arguing about stupid crap, just give the guy/girl some good bands to check out. and DEATH METAL bands, so that means no real actual screaming, just grunts growls and that stuff. Also means dark and melodic sounds, so it won’t have breakdowns and stuff, that’s DEATHCORE, White Chapel is deathcore/death metal, more deathcore though. and just fyi the differences are that metalcore is alot of breakdowns plus screaming and singing, deathcore is not as heavy as death metal and consists of breakdowns and screaming, no real singing, and if there is it’s like barely… so anyway just ya’ll all chill and help this person out ok. And quit saying stuff like The Devil Wears Prada is death metal. and yes Metal has sub genre’s, just go accept the truth or go poop yourself. K bye :)
