Definatley.

Oh cool, they're bashing Christianity. How original.

FaSho · 04-02-2009, 03:27 PM

I think you may be using the term bashing too lightly broseph,

Alfred · 04-02-2009, 03:33 PM

Bands bashing religion is a big turn-off for me, because being religious myself, I find it difficult to listen to music that clearly insults me or what I believe in. I'm not saying that bands shouldn't have that right, of course they should, it's their music and their beliefs.

A lot of that type of stuff has been what's kept me from listening to a lot of bands.

Anyways, how am I using the term lightly? Is it a lot more serious than that?

Wht bands specifically?

Anyway, I just mean that if you're going strictly by the song titles on the album, they may not neccasarily saying anything bad about christianity. For instance, American Idiot definatley commented on religion, but it didn't really say anything negative.

Yeah, but from what Rolling Stone said, that East Jesus or whatever the song is called is a big rant about religion.

I heard the first single, Know Your Enemy, on the radio today, I dont know if the whole record is gonna sound like that but if it does I think its time for them to hang up the gloves and call 'er quits, I though it was a terrible song.

'Know Your Enemy' is an awesome song... by Rage Against the Machine...

Of course thats a good song, but Im not talking about that song, Im talking about the song Know Your Enemy by Greenday off their new album, which this entire thread is about, and the song is terrible.
