Societys Finest to return home to San Diego where he and

in mind they began gathering some of the city's great
musicians. Drummer Jordan Mancino had recently left Edge of
Mortality, and Brandon Hays, previously of The Frontline,

    Review about As I Lay Dying

    ..... | Reviewer: Leo
        ------ About the song Behind Me Lies Another Fallen Soldier performed by As I Lay Dying

    This song is amazing. I, personally, agree most with this statement for the interpretation:

    "I thinks its about a soldier that thought he acted like a coward in battle, and one of his fellow soldiers died in combat, and he felt ashamed that he wasnt braver because he thought it was his fault that he died"

    It may or may not have something to do with Jesus, but if so, why the title? It implies that either Jesus dies during the apocalypse or that Jesus is a normal grunt in the religous army. For a Christian band, this makes no sense.

    Come to think of it, ALID is the only religous-themed band I actually like.

        ------ About the song Forever performed by As I Lay Dying

    who cares if AILD is religious or not? good music and genious composers. Religion is not a scam. It is a subconscious decision on where your afterlife will be. When you die, it is my belief that if you subconsciously think you will go to hell for your crimes etc then you will go to hell subconsciously when you die. If you believe you will go to heaven then you will go to heaven. Just like if buddhists believe they will be reincarnated then, in their mind, they will live another life on earth. etc.etc. That is my belief... religion is a subconscious decision that everyone makes.

        ------ About the song Through Struggle performed by As I Lay Dying

    you people that don't believe in GOD are soooo blind....

    there will be aday when all knees will bend and all eyes will see...regardless of whether this band is Christian or not, you people will eventually learn.


    hmmmmmmm | Reviewer: AILD
        ------ About the song The Sound Of Truth performed by As I Lay Dying

    Yeah seriously who gives a shit if they are christian... Shut the fuck up bout it their music is kick ass we all love them and their music...this shit pisses me off you cAN MULTIPLY INFINITY by infinity and it will still not come out to the amount tht I love this band heres a new arguement someone once told me tht as I lay dying was not metal what you think bout tht i wanted to punch him in the face


    Of course it's Christian | Reviewer: Whapz
        ------ About the song Behind Me Lies Another Fallen Soldier performed by As I Lay Dying

    The whole song is about God.
    He is saying he wants to give God everything he has, but that he's failed God so many times through sin. Then he says that there's nothing he can give that isn't already God's, so he offers God the "broken remains" of his sinful self. Then he says that there isn't anything God doesn't deserve, considering he created everything. The last line is then pretty obvious.


    An awesome song | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Behind Me Lies Another Fallen Soldier performed by As I Lay Dying

    This song is christian. Benji, you can go die. This band is HEAVILY christian, and this song is obviously about christ. Not just from that one line.
    I am able to bring You nothing that isn't already Yours
    "I am so ashamed of what I ever called my own
    Take what I have, take these broken remains
    What can I give to You that You don't already deserve "
    God created all, and whoever is saying this is acting as if he has done wrong and in that way is ashamed to admit his sins. He is saying he apologizes, but doesn't know what to do about it. "Broken remains" is how he describes his soul trapped in his body which has done wrong.

    Do your research benji, you damn atheist!


    I have a solution | Reviewer: Nate
        ------ About the song Elegy performed by As I Lay Dying

    Ok first of all as I lay dying is amazing. And second I doubt they are Christian-core but like other bands such as flyleaf are open about their religion obviously don't sing about how magical jesus is. just because they pray before a show doesn't make them Christian core they just are openly religious stop arguing over a genre's and just apreciate the music


    /sigh | Reviewer: Aüf
        ------ About the song Reflection performed by As I Lay Dying

    I wouldn't generalize As I Lay Dying in with the "screamo" category. He has found a little solace and actually expresses his feelings with conviction in this song.

    Also, how can one state a band is amazing, but feel the 'singer'(lulz) or more suitable, the vocalist "sucks?"


    quite right | Reviewer: Praetorianer
        ------ About the song Behind Me Lies Another Fallen Soldier performed by As I Lay Dying

    "I thinks its about a soldier that thought he acted like a coward in battle, and one of his fellow soldiers died in combat, and he felt ashamed that he wasnt braver because he thought it was his fault that he died"

    this is the most logical content I would think of. But this is what the song is made of. IT is about us every one of us in a situation like the soldier.

    Or maybe in the situation of someone in thinking of jesus. it is just written this way to express haveing regrets.

    stay together my Friends!!!

        ------ About the song I Never Wanted performed by As I Lay Dying

    this is a good song but i think people are forgetting about there second studio release, shadows are security. some of the songs on that cd are actually very good. songs such as: meaning in tragedy, confined, the darkest nights, through struggle, and one of my favorites morning waits. but i do agree that some of the songs on an ocean between us are very good. and all that remains is also kick ass


    So what? | Reviewer: Fayzan94
        ------ About the song The Sound Of Truth performed by As I Lay Dying

    i dont get you all!
    i mean so what if they are christian.
    Theyre music is what makes us all love them not their belief. im a muslim but i wouldnt care less if this band was a jew or hindu or satanist. All i know is that i have to go in my own grave and nobody else's. theyre music is awesome. the same is with slipknot. so what if they are satanist,i dont care and neither should you. i love theyre music. period.


    I am not attacking anyone | Reviewer: nellybear
        ------ About the song Forever performed by As I Lay Dying

    Generally people write and sing about different aspects in THEIR lives or issues that are close to THEIR hearts...We all know that all of the band members of AILD are Christian and hence Jesus will be important in their lives (and possibly feature in their lyrics)... Obviously not all their songs relate directly to God, but I believe that all their fans should respect AILD's religious beliefs and refer to their music in terms that is respectful to the artists. Sure, any art is open to interpretation but who do they refer to in their song "This is who we are" ???


    goodsong/all u religion haterz | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song The Darkest Nights performed by As I Lay Dying

    ok here is my theory. If you believe in god and he is not real, nothing happens. If you believe in god and God is real, then you go to paradise. If you dont believe in God and God is not real, nothing happens. If you dont believe in God and God is real, then you go to eternal torture in a lake of fire, with absolutely no hope of escape or rescue. So, mathematically, theoretically, out of all probability, and technically, the best thing you can do is believe in Him, whether he is real or not. You say why believe in something that might not be real... well, what if it IS real? you are taking a huge chance that can lead to serious consequences. and AILD is a christian band. They usually sing about Life and the sort, but they refer to God multiple times throughout their lyrics. So get over it, they are christian, does it matter? its good music. I mean im Christian, and I listen to like Disturbed and stuff. I listen to all kinds of metal. Doesnt make me a "bad" christian. Get a grip people. you cant change facts. They ARE christian whether you like it or not.


    awesome song | Reviewer: nellybear
        ------ About the song Falling Upon Deaf Ears performed by As I Lay Dying

    my boyfriend is in a screamo christian band and they got their name from this song, they are called 'Falling upon death ears' or F.U.D.E for short...find them on facebook, their music is really good!


    This is to you psycho-babble christian's | Reviewer: benji
        ------ About the song Behind Me Lies Another Fallen Soldier performed by As I Lay Dying

    I hate the fact that they put one line in a song
    You laid down Your life when I refused to give mine


    And suddenly its about Jesus. Chill the hell out and look at the other lyrics in the song please.

    What would he have stolen from Jesus?
    Sure, the ONE last line of the song may pertain to Jesus, but I don't see the connection in the rest of it. Lyrically, you have to look at more than one line of a song to determine the meaning.


    stop | Reviewer: ieL
        ------ About the song Morning Waits performed by As I Lay Dying

    could everyone stop arguing about the band? this music brings people together, even if theyre christian, muslim or anything else. im pure ateist, but id be the first one whod mosh himself to death at a live AILD show. so everyone get laid and listen to this beauty.


    fucktards | Reviewer: Anonymous
        ------ About the song Through Struggle performed by As I Lay Dying

    i personally am not a christian!! but AILD is a christian band and most of there songs are about there faith!!! and you dumasses who dont believe in god are blind and stupid to believe that we either were always here or some big bang and a series of mutations made the world and everything in it!!


    to "no one like that exists" | Reviewer: boffom
        ------ About the song Through Struggle performed by As I Lay Dying

    to me, the meaning is important. i sign songs for deff people in asl. not everything is translated directly, so its important to know what it means. but i agree, just cuz they are christians doesnt mean that all the songs are about god.


    Yup | Reviewer: Garrett
        ------ About the song The Sound Of Truth performed by As I Lay Dying

    I agree! Some of the greatest metal bands out there are Christian! I'm actually an atheist but i dont think there is any denying that the actual quality of music from bands like this and August Burns Red, for instance, is amazing. Even if i dont always agree with the message (religious or not), I can usually find some sort of application in my life, and even if not, it still sounds sick!


    wow | Reviewer: bradey
        ------ About the song Forsaken performed by As I Lay Dying

    Dude its so awesome how they are talking about Jesus and how we feel alone but dont really understand how jesus felt when everyone around him rejected him yet he knew he wasnt alone because God was with him and he is with us so now we dont have to feel alone!!! the breakdown for this song is freakin tight to uuuugh so amazing!!!
