Re: Akacia

Good Christian prog is as welcome here as any other sub-genre or categorization. Neal Morse's latest solo albums (One and Testimony) are perhaps the most overtly Christian lyrically, but they're damn fine albums. I should be fired if I didn't add them to the Moon for their lyrical content.

We have a song by a Turkish band Siddhartha called "Om" - should that be disallowed due to the Buddhist reference?

Aural Moon is about music, and the appropriateness of the music is what counts. I generally do not believe in censorship, though I would draw the line at including any lyrics that are overtly hateful, racist, or pro-violence. If you disagree with that stance I hate you and will beat you up

Hope none of that sounds defensive - it wasn't intended to be...

oh yeah, I'll check out Akacia when I get a chance.
