I'm a Christian and I've been struggling with some sin in my life. I found this band and they have totally helped me change. I hope I can meet them one day and thank each member for helping me fight this sin and grow closer to God.
Amen to that brother. I can say the same, some of their message is toward Christians, keeping strong, deeper repentance... etc. I still listen to them daily.
i used to be an athiest. it made me the most pissed off that i could ever be. the anger in me ate me up and i came to a point that i couldnt be happy anymore, i was always pissed off and in the end of it i felt very weak in my mind like i had a mental breakdown. a band named hb that i listen to, i found out they were a christian band. one of their music videos changed me totally. im doing worse financially right now than i was when i was an athiest, and im happier now and more optimistic than i ever have been.
Been there, I thought my anger was going to destroy me, until I started going back to church again and met friends who had my back. god helped me change through them.
pretty cool to see people of God have fun n play some good metal. got kicked out my house by my parents,only becuase they thought my musical taste made me evil and a demonic satan worshiper. i'm glad some people get you can scream n play good heavy riffs, n still praise.
That's awesome!!!!!This is my favorite Christian death metal band and my 5th favorite Christian band!!!!They're the heaviest Christian death metal band I've listened to and they have amazing Christian messages in their music!!!They are also bold about being a Christian band and about being Christians and not hypocrites or false profits!!!!
this interview is awesome. in a world and a style of music that is full of darkness and godless beliefs these guys bring light. and they are brutal! thanks guys for what you do. one of my favorite bands
I hear a lot of christians say "I don't listen to the lyrics, just the instruments" while listening to death metal. So many are blind to the fact what kind of spiritual warfare is going on when you listen to death metal, or any other genre of music. Its whats in the words that set the atmosphere! In the bible, Psalms 150:5 it says praise him with the clash of cymbals, praise him with resounding cymbals! Impending Doom and so many other bands are bringing light into a dark scene.
Amen and again I say amen. I have been doing this for 24 years and I have seen hundreds perhaps even thousands come to Jesus in Christian Heavy Metal concerts. BUT I have also seen thousands get hurt by Churches and "church people" and stop serving God because of hurt, pain, and ridicule. That is why I am making my new video series.
To the people who are tearing down these bands and the men that are actually going into the darkness to preach Jesus, let me ask you... Are you doing anything for Jesus? Don't tear down your brothers
To those who say metal is compromise, sound wave patterns are not demonic. It is the message the lyrics convey that matters, and the lyrics that this band write are heavily Christian. Metal was originally the devil's weapon, but we are using his invention against him. TO HELL WITH YOUR HATRED.
I agree, there are some christian bands out there who do so. These guys are legit though. ive talked to them and met them. Saw them last night wth sleeping giant and the presence of God was STRONG. People got saved and the singer of sleeping giant told me a kid got healed from a speech impediment. Tell me how these guys are fake.
He is absolutely correct in that the Father and his son Jesus Christ become part of you in a way that is most intimate. When someone questions my faith,I am more than willing to let the holy spirit become the prevalent force and it scares them "those of the enemy of our beloved Father and his son Jesus Christ our Saviour".
simply put a light is of no use in the sunshine. you don't have to be of the world to be in it.. when something is true regardless of belief its amazing how silly people sound when they argue. Behind every TRUE Metalhead lies a complex person with very real emotion. next time you watch a band take note of how few views they have compared to music riddled with profanity and materialism. Any real artist creates and does so because they are passionate about it
Actually, if you do wrong, you do get punished. Whom He loves, He disciplines. If we are not disciplined by God, then we are bastards and not His children.
Ive never talked to this Jesus fellow personally and honestly I feel pretty free..also Christianity is just a religion.just like Islam,Buddhism and all the rest of them
No, we put you down because we know you people are delusional morons lol. Nothing more. Why would we make fun of you for your religion. We know it isn't real.
Morbus47 if anyone seems to have issues it's people like you. Always filled with hatred for every little reason for someone who doesn't exist and the invisible persons minions. A bunch of insecure turds who can't let anything go. Lol
+Orpheum00001 And you're not? I do recall that you're the one who started the blame first. You spoke about Atheists on your own accord, so by doing so, you're spreading your own hatred. This is why we can't stand Christians. They never take responsibility for their own words or actions.
Morbus47 no because the majority of you all do. We can't even say anything because you get butt hurt and start crying that we're haters and what not. And it's not like we're not human, we make mistakes too but you set you're own standards on what Christian are supposed to be. And if that were even true, that makes you better how? I can just say God loves you, and you try too turn it on me and say how telling you how inferior you are, that's you're logic. And what i said is not an insult to atheists, some of us really do try to better ourselves and make higher standards and some people get jealous and hate us for that. But take it how ever you want to I can care less, it's just pathetic how you can hate someone for that one reason that's not even bad. you're too emotional driven, think with you're head not you're feelings.
I see where you are coming from, but the truth is that they are bringing the light to a place of darkness, they are opening up people's minds to the fact that Jesus is for everyone, and anyone. There are two kinds of music: Music that is for the glory of God, and music that isn't. They stand up on stage boldly and speak truth in a scene that only hears lies. Also, if you think that they make a lot of money, you obviously don't know much about metal haha
so you are judging Brooke Reeves' entire life and his relationship with God because He chooses to be a light in a genre of music that has been labeled as darkness? are you serious? you have NO IDEA what you are talking about and this is the reason that people cannot stand Christians. please do us all a favor and stop commenting about things you have know nothing about.
Amen kylecarrell. I have a great new series of videos myself that I have titled: Religion-vs-Relationship/ Die Religion Die! I am making these videos for many reasons and I cover a lot of issues in them. Please check them out.
Christianity isn't a religion, but its because "Religion" is about good works i.e. what you can do to get to heaven or what you can do to earn Gods approval or EARN your way into heaven. Christianity is the exact opposite. Christianity says there is no way we will EVER earn heaven we are not worthy of even worshiping God. That we are totally messed up but that God is so merciful that he gave Jesus to die for us so all we have to do is believe in him of and ask him for forgiveness.
This music is not demonic. Does is have Denomic bands in the genre? Sure it does. So does every other genre is some form or another. You just seem very close-minded if you say these people are demonic for playing a heavier style of music. You probably don't know much about Christian metal but there are some popular bands that are saving people every day.
MVPappas1 Lol dude, you're basically saying "the lyrics doesn't matter, so only the music does, so it's cool to sing about having sex and doing drugs and enjoying sin, because as long as the music glorifies Jesus, it's all good!"...sorry but it's always about the lyrics and love prasing Jesus, Go listen to the band For Today for instance, also screams, but prasing Jesus every step of the way, stop ignorantly judging others and acting like you know exactly what the love of God encompasses and supports
Dude For Today is an amazing band!! They were my first metal concert and I where the guitar pick on my neck that the lead guitarist threw to me. For Today and Impending Doom are some of my all time favorite bands.
Glorifying God and Christian lyrics go hand in hand in music. You can't glorify God without the proper lyrics. Also: For Today, while their music is good, have basically condoned homosexuality in the past. So, just watch yourself there.
Actually, Christianity is a religion. Religion isn't bad though. They were rules Jesus set for us to follow so we can be closer to him. Think of them as guidelines.
Ouch! You just contradicted the bible you claim to believe in. Read 1 Corinthians 9:19-23 I really like this band because they successfully address the issues with Christianity.
So tell me what are these words that sound like any other metal band and acts like other metal bands, eerily similar to marilyn manson and the like, don't be deceived in thinking that this is pleasing to Jesus and this is saving souls just because they talk about Jesus, so many so-called Christian music that makes a lot money using the Christian logo as so many other venues.
The preachyness is kind of abrasive, but I guess he's more open minded than the average Christian. I don't think you need God in your life to be happy or be at peace, you just need the right mentality and do your best.
I'm a Christian and I've been struggling with some sin in my life. I found this band and they have totally helped me change. I hope I can meet them one day and thank each member for helping me fight this sin and grow closer to God.
awesome! :)
this is the best band for it too! beware of impostors!!!!
Amen to that brother. I can say the same, some of their message is toward Christians, keeping strong, deeper repentance... etc. I still listen to them daily.
Love ya brother. And Jesus loves you regardless of your sin 🙏
Same man
i used to be an athiest. it made me the most pissed off that i could ever be. the anger in me ate me up and i came to a point that i couldnt be happy anymore, i was always pissed off and in the end of it i felt very weak in my mind like i had a mental breakdown. a band named hb that i listen to, i found out they were a christian band. one of their music videos changed me totally. im doing worse financially right now than i was when i was an athiest, and im happier now and more optimistic than i ever have been.
Been there, I thought my anger was going to destroy me, until I started going back to church again and met friends who had my back. god helped me change through them.
mike petras HB is a good band and i’m glad you got saved
Brooke is always really cool man. I love God so much and I love how he works through the metal scene.
pretty cool to see people of God have fun n play some good metal. got kicked out my house by my parents,only becuase they thought my musical taste made me evil and a demonic satan worshiper. i'm glad some people get you can scream n play good heavy riffs, n still praise.
i know whats that like.
Will Be Praying For you Man !
This was a really uplifting interview! Thank you!
That's awesome!!!!!This is my favorite Christian death metal band and my 5th favorite Christian band!!!!They're the heaviest Christian death metal band I've listened to and they have amazing Christian messages in their music!!!They are also bold about being a Christian band and about being Christians and not hypocrites or false profits!!!!
What Brook Reeves said is so true!!!
I love your message brother, I will pray for you every day. your music has brought me out of depression. Many times!
this interview is awesome. in a world and a style of music that is full of darkness and godless beliefs these guys bring light. and they are brutal! thanks guys for what you do. one of my favorite bands
I love Brook
He is a man of God blzz u bro and your band live forever ✊✊✊✊
How about you scale the interview volume up so I don't blow out my speakers when you blast random impending doom between interview sections.
I hear a lot of christians say "I don't listen to the lyrics, just the instruments" while listening to death metal. So many are blind to the fact what kind of spiritual warfare is going on when you listen to death metal, or any other genre of music. Its whats in the words that set the atmosphere! In the bible, Psalms 150:5 it says praise him with the clash of cymbals, praise him with resounding cymbals! Impending Doom and so many other bands are bringing light into a dark scene.
AWESOME!
more bands like impending doom - check out the bands on facedown records
Love metal. Love Jesus.
christianity is NOT a religion its a relationship with Christ,religion sets rules Jesus sets you free
Praise Jesus! Sin and Doom v.2 go Jam
Amen and again I say amen. I have been doing this for 24 years and I have seen hundreds perhaps even thousands come to Jesus in Christian Heavy Metal concerts. BUT I have also seen thousands get hurt by Churches and "church people" and stop serving God because of hurt, pain, and ridicule. That is why I am making my new video series.
Im so happy i found a REAL christian metal band love you guys! ^^
To the people who are tearing down these bands and the men that are actually going into the darkness to preach Jesus, let me ask you... Are you doing anything for Jesus? Don't tear down your brothers
His voice doesn't match the screams lol
😂 was gonna say that.
To those who say metal is compromise, sound wave patterns are not demonic. It is the message the lyrics convey that matters, and the lyrics that this band write are heavily Christian. Metal was originally the devil's weapon, but we are using his invention against him. TO HELL WITH YOUR HATRED.
I love you brother
GOD BLESS YOU IMPENDING DOOM ! ! ! ! ! ! !
Cool brother right there
i like your point of view :)
FOR TODAY! SLEEPING GIANT!
It's not the way it sounds that matters,it's the lyrics.
I agree, there are some christian bands out there who do so. These guys are legit though. ive talked to them and met them. Saw them last night wth sleeping giant and the presence of God was STRONG. People got saved and the singer of sleeping giant told me a kid got healed from a speech impediment. Tell me how these guys are fake.
Thanks Jeffery Meredith.
That's awesome!!!!!
Hey Tom Dunn on Project Josiah you mentioned there is a 2nd part to this. So far I am not finding it...where is it?
Awesomee job!! :D
i might be wrong, but the song in the background sounds like righteous with the wicked by betraying the martyrs
He is absolutely correct in that the Father and his son Jesus Christ become part of you in a way that is most intimate. When someone questions my faith,I am more than willing to let the holy spirit become the prevalent force and it scares them "those of the enemy of our beloved Father and his son Jesus Christ our Saviour".
OMG his sunglasses are great XD
very true
Vocal sounds good live
I also go by Metal Missionary. I have left several comments already. Check out my videos.

Cool.
my sin i keep doing alot is swearing its hard to stop i need help!!
David Kelly Fight! When you have a victory, Fight more! Always pray and fight
Actually, if you do wrong, you do get punished. Whom He loves, He disciplines. If we are not disciplined by God, then we are bastards and not His children.
Whatever works for you Brook
By the way, is god suddenly ok with people having tattoos?
Love has no law..
Ive never talked to this Jesus fellow personally and honestly I feel pretty free..also Christianity is just a religion.just like Islam,Buddhism and all the rest of them
LOL this sounds nothing like Marylin Manson.
Musically or Lyrically.
that makes sense what brook said, people will just put god and us believers down because they see that we try to better ourselves.
No, we put you down because we know you people are delusional morons lol. Nothing more. Why would we make fun of you for your religion. We know it isn't real.
Morbus47 then why even acknowledge us lol? And you don't even know if a God exists no one can prove or disprove.
Morbus47 if anyone seems to have issues it's people like you. Always filled with hatred for every little reason for someone who doesn't exist and the invisible persons minions. A bunch of insecure turds who can't let anything go. Lol

lolol Satan creating metal is the most ridiculous think I've heard.
so you are judging Brooke Reeves' entire life and his relationship with God because He chooses to be a light in a genre of music that has been labeled as darkness? are you serious? you have NO IDEA what you are talking about and this is the reason that people cannot stand Christians. please do us all a favor and stop commenting about things you have know nothing about.
Buddhism isn't really a religion, it's more of a philosophy. There really is no deity in Buddhism. Buddha is a state of being.
Garrett fitzsimmons yet some buddhist actually worship and praise Buddha
Cool Aid
Amen kylecarrell. I have a great new series of videos myself that I have titled: Religion-vs-Relationship/ Die Religion Die! I am making these videos for many reasons and I cover a lot of issues in them. Please check them out.

Ouch! You just contradicted the bible you claim to believe in.
Read 1 Corinthians 9:19-23
I really like this band because they successfully address the issues with Christianity.
I don't know man.. I've heard thinks more ridiculous than that.
Not fantasy or anything of the world butthe main thing about your lyrics should be Truth
So tell me what are these words that sound like any other metal band and acts like other metal bands, eerily similar to marilyn manson and the like, don't be deceived in thinking that this is pleasing to Jesus and this is saving souls just because they talk about Jesus, so many so-called Christian music that makes a lot money using the Christian logo as so many other venues.

just stop.
