Have any of you heard a band called waterdeep?
I started listening to them during my DTS (discipleship training school) in worship songs they did with 100 portraits. I wanted to find more of their stuff later, and I realized that they were actually the most honest Christian band I'd ever heard... They didn't gloss over life, they showed it for what it is... They told the sad stories and shared the frustrations and did exactly what songs were meant to do, but they also showed the hope they had in Jesus... If you're tired of Christian artists not being honest, you may want to try out waterdeep. Some songs to get you started I recommend
18 Bulletholes (Sink or Swim, Live at New Earth)
Hardened (Sink or Swim)
Walls and Tall Shadows (Everyone's Beautiful)
To chase away the Birds (To chase away the birds)
Everyone's Beautiful (Everyone's Beautiful)
Everybody's Guilty (It's on Sink or swim, but the best version is one they did live and it's not on any albums, so you gotta look for it... elseware)
Razor Light (To chase away the Birds)
I have two, and just orderd two... Their songs have helped me through some really hard times and I'm really thankfull they are around. If you are going through hard times, you may want to try some music that doesn't lie to you and tell you now you're a christian all your problems go away, and doesn't give you nickel responses either. Waterdeep is great and powerfull music.
