Rant on Growing up in a predominately Christian house hold:
1.How I view Christianity has changed over the years and that’s why I believe that going out into to the world and learning new things/getting an education is so important.
2. I use to be very faithful; praying everyday and night, reading the Bible etc… but I realized doing all of this never really resulted in anything. I felt constant guilt for enjoying the things I loved, especially music, struggled a lot b/c I really enjoy music as an art form and to think that it’s a “sin”.
3. I grew up going to church and from a young age I realized that the church environment was very toxic. I’d listen to people gossip about each other’s misfortunes, shame others for literally being human(labeling everything a sin), every single church I’ve been to the pastor is always significantly wealthier then the entire congregation and they worship them more than God himself. Church is suppose to be the house of the Lord, but I have felt a negative energy within its walls.
4.My mother calls herself a “Godly Woman” but she does not act as such. She uses it as an excuse to behave the way she does( that’s another issue). She actively does and says things that go against the word of God bc she’s a hypocrite.
5. While I do believe in divine power( I sort of teetering to agnostic) I’d rather find my spirituality on my own meaning I’d only build a religious relationship between me and said God.
6. From a historical standpoint, Christianity is root of evil in this world(I’m not saying that God/Jesus is evil, just the religion). Christianity is deeply rooted in colonialism and white supremacy. Christianity led to the massacre of thousands of Native American, it is the sole reason why many African countries are destabilized today, it was the “reassigning” for condemning Black/African American persons to years of slavery and racial prejudice/discrimination. It is the cause for violence against women,children, and LGBTQ/queer groups
7. Modern day Christianity is a white man’s religion.
In conclusion I still believe in a God but I will not bound my self to any religious denominations. If you are feeling confused about where you are spiritually, take the time to step away from it and find yourself and be who you are, life is too short live in the fear.
Thank you for read, I’d be happy to hear different opinions on this take. Open to discussion!

Chosen Undead is a metal band with a focus on creating sounds that are modern yet extremely versatile, often tipping the hat to a wide variety of heavy influences. From classic metal to metalcore and even elements of contemporary alternative, anything goes.
The five-piece band hails Hainburg, a quiet town near Frankfurt. Formed in 2024, the group blends the fast, heavy riffs of early metalcore with fresh, modern sounds that really bring something fresh to the mix. Each musician in the band is fond of a different heavy style, so they love to incorporate anything from melodic death, thrash, hard rock, to pure metalcore in their songs.
Recently, the band dropped one of their edgiest singles to date, which actually serves as a stunning example of their ability to combine different styles. "Karmic Justice" is the title of this song, and the track takes no prisoners! It opens with a powerful drum swoosh that leads straight into a heavy yet dynamic and balanced guitar riff. This riff serves as the backbone of the song, making it immediately recognizable and distinctive from the get-go. It gives the track its iconic quality right off the bat.
The vocals come in around 11 seconds after the intro riff. The aggressive delivery matches the intensity of the guitar, and the song is beefy and extremely powerful. The drums and bass act as a solid and relentless rhythm section, while the guitars provide a huge wall of sound that makes the track stand out in terms of sheer force. The vocals are strong enough to match all of that, and then some. They soar easily above the mix and provide guidance and definition, highlighting the dynamic changes in the arrangement and adding even more personality to the song.
There is also room for some melodic vocal parts, which bring a nice contrast to the arrangement and, in some ways, are reminiscent of early 2000s emocore. If you enjoy bands such as Hatebreed, Bullet For My Valentine, or Killswitch Engage, you'll definitely connect with the vibes of this one. However, this is not just a nostalgia trigger. The song still feels very contemporary, especially when it comes to the production, which is massive in every way. From the kick drum and the snare down to the balance in the guitars, everything hits just right.
There’s an amazing instrumental breakdown in the middle of the song, featuring a stellar guitar solo that showcases both technical skill and artistic prowess. Ultimately, this song stands out not just because it's heavy and powerful, but because the band provides dynamics and nuance. The arrangement is personal and diverse, shifting from expected heavy sections to more melodic parts and even technical flair in the bridge.
There’s just enough variety to make the track far more engaging than the average metalcore song that rides the same vibe from start to finish. The band has successfully captured its kaleidoscopic range of influences and infused it into their unique formula.
One of the pitfalls of modern metal music, in my opinion, is that it tends to be extremely clean in terms of production. Everything is super quantized, grid perfect, and the sounds can be a little manufactured. However, this is definitely not the case here. Chosen Undead managed to capture a sound that feels definitely more like musicians playing. Don't get me wrong, it is still a very punchy, crisp, and polished record, but polished doesn't have to mean aseptic or lifeless. In this case, Karmic Justice is an example of how to properly create a modern sounding piece of heavy music without overly relying on the producer's toolkit. It's really all about great songwriting and arrangement. The mix really works in context and it helps the song stand out, making Chosen Undead a perfect combination of early 2000s aesthetics and contemporary clarity when it comes to the actual sound of this release.
