I listen to rock, a lot of rock; Lots of metal. Normally that kind of music is exiled from christianity for it's dark roots - which sometimes hits me in the face since I Am a christian. But really... music can't be "dark" when music itself is only pleasant to the person that likes it. Songs, the lyrics... that's what makes a song "bad" or "good". I'll show you guys a dark band by definition, but some of their lyrics show a different face. It's not a band to listen if you're looking for enlightenment, it's a band that's well defined in the world of music; it uses instruments that normally you wouldn't see on stage, and they deliver a great performance everytime they sing. Should I follow their beliefs? Nope. Should I take seriously their anti religious messages? Nope. Should I listen to them then? Only if you can devide and define what you like - Music is universal, it shouldn't be affected by anything; be it religion, race or language.
So, here it is guys; Mago de Oz, a Folk-Metal / Heavy-metal spanish band. Their ideals are dark, their songs are almost bright, but their music is amazing.
This is the song "Let the wind blow in your favor"
