Quotes:
"The average rock music lover will never have a chance to be impacted by our music if all these Christians keep calling us a christian band online and scaring them away. Posting that were playing 'Holy Tabernacle Christian Fellowship' on our facebook is a death sentence for us,
it alienates us from our potential or realized non-christian fans."
