Well, to be honest with you, Hard Rock is really "Of the world" and I consider it a sin... Even if it does have clean lyrics. No I'm not some guy that listens to only anything piano, everything else is a sin - I'm not that type... I consider some Christian bands to be truly Christian, but I'd be careful with what you listen to, if it's really heavy, I'm going to say yes, it is sinful to listen to hard rock. To be Christians we have to look to God's word for instruction, and if we sit around and listen to hard rock, we're not really focusing on God. The whole purpose of hard rock is to get the blood pumping and the heart racing, it's a physical sensation, not a spiritual. And not to mention you don't look a lot different than most non-Christians when you do, it's like cussing and trying to profess to be a Christian. You may be just having trouble getting rid of your language, but nobodt's going to listen to what you have to say. I'm just saying... Choose your bands well, be careful who you listen to, and make wise decisions upon what the Bible says, not what your physical feelings or emotions are like. If you want a band that is uplifting yet still upbeat, with a good bit of electric guitar in them, try Third Day. It's clean, obviously Christian, and it's not hard rock - it won't make your blood race like other hard bands do. It's good music and I'm sure you'll enjoy them a lot. Just be careful with who you choose.
