Songs about anger, frustration, or hate towards God
Preferably newer songs because I've heard all the popular, older songs surrounding the topic. I also made a topic in the metal section because I'm preferably looking for deathcore, but any genre will do. Here are some currently on my playlist.
XTC/Sarah McLachlan - Dear God NIN - Heresy, Terrible Lie Perfect Circle - Judith Suicide Silence - Witness the Addiction Suicide Silence - Unanswered Bring Me the Horizon - Crucify Me Bring Me the Horizon - House of Wolves Bring Me the Horizon - Crooked Young Asking Alexandria - Morte Et Dabo DZK - Bow Down |

The obvious vote from me, but still a classic.
Julian Cope's wonderfully catchy song about smashing God in the face. "The my flailing arms smashed your face/and why should kill you I thought of all of the martyrs, the religious wars/and all of the millions dying for a nobody cause" Maybe this is surprising. From Elton John's 1976 Blue Moves album...Not on my turntable much, but something I bought for a Dollar. Sometimes bargain bin finds add on these things I sometimes like to share. "But it seems to me that He leads his lambs/to the slaughterhouse and not the promised land." This was the only YouTube that has this song alone. Last edited by Screen13; 07-27-2014 at 09:05 PM. |

I immediately thought of Blasphemous Rumors also, pretty great song.
Jesus Saves- Slayer Probably my favorite song in this vein. Anti-pope- The Damned Another great take if a bit blasphemous.

Yes I Am Blind by Morrissey. Contains the lines "God come down if you're really there, well you're the one who claims to care", and "Little lamb on a hill, run fast if you can. The "Good Christians" they want to kill you and your life has not even begun."
Also "Selling Jesus" by Skunk Anansie is another good one. What I don't understand is why Buddha, Krishna, Allah and Mohammed never get dissed in rock music. Why only pick on Jesus and Jehovah? |

As Alan Partridge once said "NEVER, EVER CRITICISE MUSLIMS...ONLY CHRISTIANS....AND JEWS A LITTLE BIT"

This is in no way related to any of the other genres listed here, but Regina Spektor's "Blue Lips" comes to mind. It speaks to a disillusionment with God/the church, sort of coming to an atheistic climax. You might like it, it has a kind of tenderness to it.
Edit: Another just popped into my head! Dave Matthews Band's "Spoon" is a very underrated and interesting song about questioning one's faith. Alanis Morissette also makes an appearance on that track. And a banjo. Check it out. |
