Demon Hunter is an American Christian metal band from Seattle, Washington, started in 2000 by brothers Don Clark and Ryan Clark. Although the brothers created the band together, only Ryan remains, since Don left the band to take care of his family.
Sometimes their songs don t make sense at first. But I looked up the meaning of the words (and some Bible searching), and there is a TON of really deep theology in their songs!

Metal Sucks that Underoath actually planned to release their next album last fall. They originally anticipated recording the new LP ahead of their tour run with Slipknot. However, those plans quickly changed.
“Full disclosure, our plan initially was to hit the studio before the Slipknot tour last summer and have a song out on that tour and probably put the record out in the fall,” he said. “We kind of had this whole thing lined up. But then Covid came into the picture and we’re realizing, ‘Man, [we are] under no time table to put this thing out.’”
Alternative Press about why Bad Religion decided to host the special livestream series.
âWe did have a lot of plans, pre-pandemic,” he said. “Obviously, all that went away. The original
Decades idea actually came from the promoter at Irving Plaza for our 30th anniversary. I was on the phone with our booking agent and him.
