ForChristSake is a Christian Melodic Death Metal band residing in Belfast, Northern Ireland. They independently released their debut EP titled Death Is But A Breath Away in 2010. The band fuse various musical styles to try and give a unique sound whilst retaining a heavy edge. The band have a message in each song which speaks to a lost generation crying out for more than just consumerism and the self.
ForChristSake debut full-lenght album “Apocalyptic Visions of Divine Terror”! is released after a few delays and some techical difficulties on Januari 21th. 2014 via American label Roxx Productions. These 16 new tracks of blistering earth shattering metal are guaranteed to shake the foundation walls of hell! And you get to hear it first!
ForChristSake sees their music as opening doors for similarly minded bands who want to promote a positive message with a harder musical influence.
“Therefore I am well content with weaknesses, with insults, with distresses, with persecutions, with difficulties, for Christ’s sake; for when I am weak, then I am strong.” – 2 Corinthians 12:10 (NASB).
