      @yimimi1013 5 лет назад +15

      ​@@InkAndPoet I don't think people slam Jon because of his opinions, I'd say it's more because his reviews aren't that detailed. They're pretty surface level, and he has a tendency of going for insults rather constructive criticism (the 6ix9ine video, his worst songs of the year lists). They aren't even remotely as detailed as Melon's. That doesn't make his videos bad (I'm subscribed to both of his channels), but he isn't a great reviewer. That's just my opinion though.

    As someone who grew up in the church (son of the pastor), I'd have to say that I've almost completely grown out of religious music. Even if something sucks there will always be that overly positive annoying person saying "well it's for God" as if that somehow makes it any better.
    Most of the Christian music today is incredibly lackluster and super cheesy with songs that have pretty bad songwriting, it's basically a watered down version of what's on mainstream radio but with religious themes, as if radio music isn't watered down enough. But the listeners convince themselves that it's better than secular music because it's made for God. To me it's like someone that only watches the WNBA and swears that it's better than the NBA because somehow the NBA is wrong. I'd rather listen to music that is legitimately well put together and well-written rather than a mediocrity that is dedicated to a deity.

    Although I do like the track "Feel Invincible", and I haven't really listened to the entire album as of yet, I do have to say a few things.
    1. Skillet has always been a Christian Rock band. That's what I've always heard them labeled as, so you can't exactly fault them on using lyrics connected to their faith.
    2. Although they were trying to fit into the Nu Metal genre in the first half of the 2000s, their material from 2006 to 2013 was actually really good in my opinion. They still had a Nu Metal type sound and were very successful with it. However their newer stuff has been more techno than rock.
    But yeah. It's all a matter of opinions

    • @Numberoneiosgameplay
      @Numberoneiosgameplay 2 года назад +2

      I thought Collide was their best work, with a very grungy and grainy metal sound. Had a lot of duds leading up to it tho early in the band's career. Comatose was decent, Awake was more mainstream but was still good, then it went downhill from there in my opinion

      I guess it's because the only assumed appeal of the record is emotional resonance with the listener, and the only people who can relate to this kind of music are edgy teens. I personally agree with it, but you don't have to (opinions and whatnot).

    I think it‘s difficult to spin a Christian message in genres which rely on darkness and aggression, without sounding corny AF. Could it ever work? Maybe with clever, thought-provoking concepts and lyrics . . . Skillet is not that.

      I think the band Convictions does it perfectly, check em out if you haven't, you might find something you like.

      I like the Christian metal band Tourniquet. Old school thrash metal with some progressive metal influences.

    I just saw Skillet live, and no joke, was one of the best live shows I've seen. 8/10, would love to see em again

    Man I used to love Skillet. I've heard the new singles and they suck. Sounds like a bad Christian Coheed and Cambria.

    Please do a video covering 18 Carat Affair. It's basically what Macintosh+ was doing, but it feels like it has a lot more effort put into it. Aside from the fact that they make 4 new albums a year.

    I know two people who listen to Skillet.
    I think they listen to them out of spite, because they _know_ people hate them.
