I have heard some really really rich and heavy band that are not christian bands. I am trying to get convictions cd's. I have some fleshkiller and extol, but they are not heavy enough for me. I want something that is more rich.
Impending doom sounds so light to me, it's so light, i can't stand hearing it.
please help me.

Maybe give some examples of secular bands you enjoy. Might make it easier to nail down some options.

The only band I have been able to find who really is christian was Slaves Wages.
But if you can tell me some true christian metal bands. Convictions and fleshkiller are bad. I am not sure about extol either.
Slaves ages is not very heavy for me. I used to like things like Metallica and 5 finger death punch.
But I think God wants me to give up all the heavy metal.
If you have true believers, saved christian band.
CoreMetal maybe.

Hmm. Metallica and FFDP aren't really that heavy. Impending Doom is heavier than both.

Let's see if I can find some good stuff.

I tried them. But not what I am looking for. Not that type of vocals. My fit calmed down too.
What I like is rich rich music. Like a heavy guitar. Extol has some good music I like. But I sometimes miss this music I heard long time ago. I don't know he's name. It was so rich. I have always wanted more of it.

"Rich music" is a pretty vague statement.
Extol started out more of a blackened metal, their first few albums. I'm guessing you're talking about their later stuff where they changed their sound. I never did get into that stuff.
I'd never heard of Slaves Wage, had to look them up. Sounds a bit like power metal, or trying to be.

Heres an option

No, those two are too weak for me. It hurts.
I've no idea then. You said Impending Doon was 'too lite', which is nuts. Then you used Slaves Wage as an example, a power metal band, so i gave you two power metal bands that are heavier than SW, and you said they are too weak.
You said core bands. That's desthcore, like Impending Doom, or metalcore, which has a lot of screaming and some cleans mixed in. Possibly thrash, but most thrash bands have harsher vocals than Metallica.
And to my knowledge there is no 5fdp Christian equivalent. Though dad metal is not really my thing, so it may be out there and I just don't know it.
You never really did explain what you meant by rich. You obviously have a different idea of what heavy means than pretty much every metalhead. You aren't offering much oof a description other than heavy and rich (whatever that means), so you'll either have to explain more clearly or hope someone else has better luck helping you.
