My 13-year old listens to something that is basically screaming/yelling. Sounds like some of that Nazi-punk crap “music”. And it is Christian. (I guess!? At least it has Christian lyrics!). I joke with him about it - I can’t understand most of the words, but I imagine lyrics like “God is my Good Shepherd” lose their meaning when you yell them out at the top of your lungs in a gutteral primal scream!

Most of the stuff he listens to is pretty good though. He even has his old man listening to some of his Christian rock and roll.

>“Make a joyful noise unto the Lord”

Says nothing about being even technically correct (On Key, on tempo, etc)... In all, it is a invitation to make any kind of music/noise as praise. (That includes even what you wouldn’t consider music, such as rap, death-metal, etc.)
