So as someone who was raised roman catholic with italian immigrant parents i'm soo confused as to what you guys are talking about. What you're telling me is there are churches.... with guitars and pedals and shit?

You know the familiar image of the heart <3 is what we have ingrained in our sub conscience from when we were apes and we only banged from behind... When you are procreating and you look down from behind that's the image you see...
Music is all about our most primal instincts, one of which is God and a higher power...
I always thought hearts looked like an upside down ass. Butt that's just me.

The band Ascend the Hill has an album where they just cover hymns in a post rockish sound, but still have the traditional melody pushing through. I think the album is just called Hymns... could easily be wrong. I don't really enjoy the singers voice, but that is it's own thing entirely. I sometimes get in funny conversations with people in my church regarding music. We just switched from not having an electric guitar to having one, and he also has a full pedal train 2. Lots of strymon, nothing noisier than a full drive 2. Somehow his using effects mattered to a few people. It was surprising to me. We all have ways we approach our spirituality with countless factors effecting every step along the way. The goal as I see it is just making powerful and impactful praise songs for as much of the congregation as possible. If it were just people like me in the church, there would be loads of fuzz. Fortunately it is a diverse community, so the music has to be much more neutral. No point in going to a church where everyone thinks exactly the same, so logically the music has to have many a stylistic compromise. Sorry for the ramble...

This is all I think of when it comes to worship music Write a normal rock song. Then change the word baby to Jesus and you will have hit worship song. And all black people have a bass guitar in their basement and can play it instinctively. One of the funniest South Park episodes.
