Grave Robber…Scarier Than Halloween!

I grew up listening to real punk, like The Misfits…. and when I became a Christian, I was kind of bummed when I could not really find any Christian bands that were Misfit like.  Well, when I went to Cornerstone 2010, I caught a Grave Robber show and I was hooked.  These guys have quite a stage show too that keeps getting better and better.  The midnight show at Cornerstone 2011 involved Santa Claus, blood cannons, and sing alongs that kept me and the crowd entertained and begging for more.  Shawn Browning runs the label, Rottweiler Records that Graver Robber is signed to.  So, John Jackson hit up Shawn who introduced us to Wretched, lead singer for Grave Robber and the scariest guy in Christian punk!  So, if you get a chance to catch these guys, you will not want to miss their show, trust us here at HXCChristian.com, you will be singing along and getting sprayed with fake blood and be loving every second of it!

OH, and, you can pick up Grave Robber’s new album “You’re All Gonna Die” at Rottweiler Records for $10.99 (worth every penny)!

Four Must Get Albums

Check it, I just picked up a few new albums that you have got to order (or get someone else to get them for you for Christmas!!! Can you say stocking stuffers!)

Clear Convictions – “The Mystery of Iniquity”

This is Clear Convictions sophomore album (for those in Rio Lindon, that means their second album).  I do not have their first album, so I can’t compare it to their first album.  Here is what is cool about the this album.  There are two tracks on the album that are dissertations on the bible.  Cool stuff, the background music on the tracks is a little out of place, but the biblical teachings on those tracks is really cool and reaffirms our beliefs as Christians.  What I like about the album.  The musical style is somewhere between hardcore and metal.  With strong hardcore riffs and a bit of metal mixed in between, the album is heavy, so heavy in fact that the bass drum seems to drown out the rest of the instruments at time, but I love drums, so I don’t mind.  The vocals are pretty guttural as well and lend a primal sound to the album.  In all their are 10 musical tracks, and the songs roll into one another, I could imagine going to a Clear Convictions show and hear them play all 10 tracks off this album, one after another with no breaks.  The album is a great album overall, if you like Clear Convictions, then pick it up.  You
