WELCOME
to Rich's Christian Death Metal Page
This page was developed with one thing in mind.....to
SUPPORT THE WAR AGAINST satan
Support the war against satan-logo designed by Joel Gustafsson (Check out this guys art !)


If you're like me, and love good, hard-core , guitar crunchin', drum slammin', voice growling, zealous metal music - then this page is for you. I originally intended to put sound clips and photo scans and any more I could fit onto this page, but I felt I was basically duplicating hard work already done elsewhere on the 'net. So, instead, I decided to just design a place with links to these sites and band's official home-pages, etc. If they don't have an official home page, I may eventually put some samples, etc up here. If you share an interest in any of the bands here or just want more info on one of them, please send me some e-mail and I WILL reply. Or just send some e-mail and let's talk about music, God or whatever. Ok ? Now, on to the music.

Ok, first. I want to know why we Christians still call "Death Metal" death metal ????

(I actually got a response to this question from Mark of ASCENSION/Unsummoning (Now known as Rebirth)- COOL ! Thanks Mark and ...good point.)

If it's Christian music about God giving us new life, then how can we associate "death" with it ? I vote we change the name to "Life Metal" :) Ok, I'm happy, now.








Heard about the




Check out their awesome release, "Where Blood & Fire Bring Rest"

How about "Black/death metal with some classical music influences" ? Sounds GREAT to me ! Sound good to you ? Try this Christian band from Finland.....

The background picture depicting the crucifixion of our Lord Jesus Christ is something I came up with one day while messing around in Paint Shop Pro , it's nothing really fancy but feel free to use it if you want - it ain't copyrighted or nothin'.
