All of the sweaty, distortion masters of metal: Stretch Arm Strong, Blindside, and Born Blind balance out the equation by providing finger-pointing material.
Living Sacrifice was the first Christian death metal band I ever heard. They’ve survived by adapting much the same way others have: by going “groove-oriented.”
3rd Root sing about being “saved” in quiet whispers (sometimes bursting into screams) driven by Latin percussive undertones, not unlike P.O.D. or Sepultura.
Forget In Flames, Dark Tranquillity, or any other band that “carries the torch of At The Gates.” Extol is the closest and the most passionate you’ll find.
Taking Agnostic Front, Cro-Mags, and Sick Of It All, and adding that new school guitar crunch, Born Blind is almost an exact replica of No Innocent Victim.
