That's what I really like about both bands, the fact that you listen to them and feel like recharged do you know what I mean? What I'm trying to say is that for me the lyrics in a metal song are very important and I think they don't have to always talk about "devil, death, violence" even when the music is great in many bands but sometimes I get disappointed when I read the lyrics of the song.
Putting aside the "religion thing" (because i don't listen to them because of the religion BUT because of the positive messages in their songs). As many bands have too, and I think is so cool to send a message that really worth in a song.
Cheers to everyone!
some songs that come to my mind are for example...
stratovarius - just carry on
joey tempest - magnificent
ari koivunen - i fly
stryper - free
I know there are much more bands there with cool lyrics and I think that's cool!...
P.S. Stratovarius as far as I read the lyrics of deep unknown and higher we go, seems to be an amazing album polaris yeah!! as always !!
Peace and have a great day !!
