most of it sounds satanic

what may i ask defines something as "satanic"

i could say the exact same thing about country music, soft rock, jazz, or any other form of music and you couldnt refute me.

If I remember 'As I Lay Dying' claimed to be a christian band, they're pretty good.

They're not death metal, they're metalcore. And they're not good at all.

because it's scary sounding. and the devil is scary

I'm a metal head and I'm becoming a youth pastor. It's not about how it sounds as much as what the lyrics say and the intentions are. If it's got a positive message/ Christian lyrics then how could it be satanic?

Right, you should listen "fratello metallo" songs... it's an italian monk, singer in a death metal band ^^

True, that is right
