    I’m guessing this doesn’t have to be Christian related, and dare I ask, even teetering on the edge of degenerate?

    If you wanna post black metal, then post black metal. Except for Batyushka. That band is beyond anti-christian.

    Whatever bands you listen to and want to share that aren’t anti-Christian all through (such as Batyushka or Marilyn Manson or most pop music) and any songs you like (within the same parameters of not being anti-Christian).

    redbar me on Batyushka

    I can listen to Dimmu Borgir cause its 8th grade edgy, but Batyushka actually uses desecrated icons, inverted orthodox schema, and their lyrics are also an inverted version of liturgy:

    Я пресвя́тый, Я пречистый, Госпо́ди.

    Во имя Ме́ня помоли Меня,
    Во имя спасенья Ме́ня помолил.


    I am most holy, most pure, O Lord.

    For the peace pray to Me.
    For the salvation [you] have prayed to Me.

    Neat idea
