This is a rant. There's an improvised church close to my home, and it's noisy as hell. These people own a normal place and it's not meant to keep the noise in like actual churches (hopefully) do. Not that they care. They have a choir. No, they're not very good. More than showing devotion to their God through music, it seems to be a battle of "Let's see who can sing the loudest" and the results are pretty terrible. Also their songs are made up of a single line, repeated for as long as the song lasts. Here's how it goes: "We're God's warriors! We're God's warriors! We're God's warriors! We're God's warriors! We're God's warriors! We're God's warriors! We're God's warriors! We're God's warriors!" Or my favorite personal: "And to the devil I say "Go away, go away, go away!" The devil won't possess you if you sing this to him 'cause he'll run away with tears streaming down his face. I can picture him thinking "They keep singing that shit to me. Why won't anybody love me?" Let's face it, though; Those songs are still more creative than some pop songs. Then there's the preacher, whom I might have to ask for tips on how to scream so viscerally without ripping your throat from the inside out. This dude should start a christian metal band 'cause he's not far from pure guttural screaming. Luckly he has plenty of time to rest his tired voice because he stops his lecture every so often so the choir can sing their next big hit. It's 80% music, 20 % lecture about whatever. I think I've got to give them props for devotion. They get together 4 or 5 days a week to listen to this dude screaming about the devil. Then again, since most of the time is spent singing and dancing I'm pretty sure it's easy to enjoy the time they spend there.
