ON October 6th a post on this site provoked a storm of comments, which flew back and forth  about the Christian metal band ForChristSake.

_{Western Sand are a four-piece band from Bournemouth who formed in 2008 and play their own style of southern hard rock, gaining a growing fanbase in the process. They released a new four track self-titled EP earlier this year and were recently announced as support for the Black Star Riders tour in the UK and Ireland. That includes the tour finale in The Limelight, Belfast on 15th December. The band consists of Tyler Hains on guitar and lead vocals, Jimmy Bradshaw on guitar, Nathan J. Kay on drums and Findlay Hotchkiss on bass. Lead singer Tyler recently answered a few questions for us.}
