I went to a Christian heavy metal concert this weekend(someone neglected to tell me that little detail). The music was alright for what it was, it just seemed weird. I am not Christian so I guess a lot was lost on me.

The main act was Disciple. The other groups were: You Before Me, Fireflight, and Decypher Down. They were all very talented.

I listen to a lot of Christian metal. The only thing different is the lyrics. I love music and i do not care what the style is, really.
Talent is talent and comes in all forms. The opinions of everyone are different.
Christian music can be just as heavy as a devil worshipping band But the lyrics praise the lord instead of the alternative.

often times, convinced. There are some bands that are of direction anti-God and anti-Christian. to illustrate, the band Deicide. they're adverse to faith mostly and Christianity particularly. although, no longer all metallic is evil. i love heavy metallic song. I have listened to it for 25 years now. one in all my prominent bands is Metallica (their previous albums from the 1980's). Dave Mustaine of Megadeth is a born again Christian. Like each and everything else, there is sweet and undesirable in song. yet heavy metallic receives singled out as being nefarious, because it has a smaller following, and is in many cases misunderstood. convinced, some rock and heavy metallic is satanic. yet genuinely no longer all of it is. There are also loads of Christian metallic bands, too. My prominent song is thrash metallic from the 1980's and early 1990's. I save issues in attitude. even if i love song, God comes first in my life.

It can be , sure. But Christian music, whatever form it takes, is message music, so that has to be the key thing.
Real heavy metal, as you call it, can simply just focus on the noise without dealing with that issue.
Christians using heavy metal for their message are a little more challenged to balance both parts of that.

Absolutely they can dude. The christian metal is the one genre in heavy metal industry that really have a good progression nowaday, many new bands born and they are so awesome in their music, like the bands that you said in this question. And the progression of christian metal music nowaday are so awesome, they bring to us some metal music in many kind of genre in metal, they play some hard rock, heavy metal, thrash metal, death metal even the black metal. Even many people thought that the christian metal bands are Not metal bands, but who care, all we need are some good bands to listen to.
Christian metal music are awesome to listen too, from the old school band like Petra, whiteheart, mass etc, then the next generation always born like the bands : stryper, guardian, etc. Then we will find again some bands like mortification, metanoia, vomoth etc as the next generation, then right now we will find some new bands as you said.
In christian metal music we can also find some brutal music, the band like mortification, this band play death metal music, hailing from aussie, they really got a huge name in usa and europe for christian metal music scene, behind this band we will find a guy named Rowe, this man is the owner of the record named Rowe Production, which always releases some cool christian metal bands. You can listen to their release named Australian Metal bands Compilation, in this compilation we will listen to some awesome metal bands which play in some brutal music. Check it out. OK.

It's just my opinion, but heavy metal whether it's Christian or not has such angry overtones that I don't think it should be called Christian regardless of the sugar-coated lyrics.

Christian Metal is just like regular metal but i think it can be misinterpreted by those who don't believe in it if that makes any sense at all...

Cool! Who played??
Yes it can, but it won't have the same negative influence on people...and believe me, it was not lost in you. It did something inside of you, you just don't know it yet.
God bless you!
