Sin Destoyers

November 27, 2005 6:36 AM

Thou Shalt Not Not Rock! If you didn't get a chance to get out to Church to rid yourself of your sins, why not let the Brooklyn-based Sin Destroyers rock the Evil out of you. "When you think about it, it's simple. If God created everything, including trees and Japan, he could certainly wail harder than anyone. A rock band in his name would rock harder than everyone else combined! Furthermore, Jesus kicks ass with his unstoppable stream of goodness. The Virgin Mary was smoking hot and still kept her shirt on. Only a heathen can deny the cosmic allure of the Holy Spirit. For all of their indefatigable awesomeness, they ask for only one thing in return: to spread their word. Furthermore, Jesus kicks ass with his unstoppable stream of goodness. The Virgin Mary was smoking hot and still kept her shirt on. Only a heathen can deny the cosmic allure of the Holy Spirit. For all of their indefatigable awesomeness, they ask for only one thing in return: to spread their word." (via.)

If flash isn't your game, you can hear some of the same songs here.

but, does Jesus kick ass with his unstoppable stream of goodness? was The Virgin Mary was smoking hot and did she keep her shirt on? can only heathens deny the cosmic allure of the Holy Spirit? and do they ask only one thing despite all of their indefatigable awesomeness?

Of course, some Christian music fans "rock" harder than others. In your face, Sin Destroyers!

holy crap? Voted "Best band Jesus would do", Village Voice:Best Of 2005! I bet being the World's most christianest band takes a freakin boatload of awesomeness to pull off.

Only a heathen can deny the cosmic allure of the Holy Spirit.

Isn't that pretty much the definition of the word "heathen"?

Was the holy grail the zippo that Jesus was holding up when he shouted "Freebird!"?

Heh:

Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise.

If you haven't seen it already, click the music link (bottom left), hover over Judas (4th from left) and watch the dialogue. funny stuff.

I don't think they're serious, but at the same time, I don't think the songs are making fun of Christianity. Peter Squires, on Guitar and Vocals, is a Unitarian Universalist.

All the unitarians who I hung out with in university made fun of christians. Not as much the ex-christian objectivists mind you, I don't think the unitarians ever tried to get the bibble printed on toilet paper.

Yeah, I have a hard time believing they're serious, but it's funny either way.

I'm friends with Mike DiBenedetto, genius bassist and valiant Destoyer of Sin. And let me tell you, they rock my crucifix off.
