Greetings everyone,
I am looking for music that is inspired by Atheism or Agnosticism. I am really moved by music and just want to listen to more artist like this. I'm very into metal too if there are more. I love All That Remains and their song "Indictment." It's awesome.
I also like songs like "Seems Uncertain" by 311. My favorite verse is this one:
"Your denomination should be a private thing. How about a spirit for all human beings. How could something well guided turn out to be divisive? Mostly wondering. It seems uncertain..."
This was the song that got me to move more to Agnosticism while listening to it.
Check it out. It's pretty calm and relaxing.
Thanks for your responses in advance! I'd love to listen to more artists!

I have posted 8 songs in the past two weeks which I tagged as either #FreethoughtSong and/or #AtheistSong. Two of the songs were metal (to which I also applied the tag #Metal), and two of them were hard/heavy rock (to which I also applied the tag #Rock.)
Ain't necessarily so ...... By muddy waters, I think
Just letting you all know. I'll listen to your songs little by little. Thank you for these suggestions!!
According to religious people, any song not about God or isn't a worship song, is unacceptable. Or its from heathens or....what the fuck-ever.
So ya might as well include Woody Guthrie, John Philips Sousa, Frank Sinatra, Glen Miller, ...and just about every song ever written.
Did someone say metal? \m/
"The passion of the Christ
The greatest of all lies"
Ooooh I looooooove ALL these!!! Metal <3 Oh I melted while listening to them. Thank you SOOOOOO much! I'm just able to listen to some of these.
I don't know if this qualifies. Patty's song are laced with religious references and overtones but I love her.
Look for Melody Sheep on Youtube, who has done some interesting astronomy/cosmology stuff. Not rock, but as a classical musician I like it.
Tim Minchin. He's a comedian but his stuff is still pretty deep. Speaks to me, hopefully speaks to you.
Beat me to it, love the Minch
I agree, Tim Minchin is awesome!
I love this song for that! I don't know if it's intended to be an Athiest/Agnostic song but if you listen to the lyrics I can't imagine that it's not about turning against religion. It's definitely not metal but the lyrics are great for athiests and agnostics.
I'll add this to my spotify. We need more of this,music can be like food, something that we can all agree with as humans.
I don't have any good recordings right now, but i just got an old metalcore / melodic death metal band of mine back together. Literally first practice in a year was tonight, lol. As soon as we get some decent recordings, i'll send em your way.
Rage Against the Machine: "In the Name Of". John Lennon's "Imagine". Two songs that come to mind for me.
