The ranting of a couple of metal heads

Black/Death metal band members to appear in Hell documentary.

Christianity and metal have a long, contentious history. Some might posit that without Christianity then there may not have been a heavy metal genre (I think this is silly logic, but I get the reasoning). So it might seem oddly appropriate to talk about a documentary coming out this fall called Hellbound?, which seeks to showcase the varying views of hell in modern Christianity.

At this point you’re probably wondering why we are talking about this. On the movie’s about page, they list the likes of David Vincent, Glenn Benton, Necrobutcher and everyone’s favorite Orderus Ungus as appearing. I’m not sure how prominent any of these metal luminaries will be, or what they will say, but I thought it worth bringing attention to. This could either be really cool, or it could just solidify the statement that all metal bands are evil Satanists. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see.

Here’s the teaser and the movie web page is here.
