The exact same schoolyard game as "kill the guy with the ball" (aka "Smear The Queer"), only the name is changed when played at Catholic schools. A comical way of encouraging a bygone era of sectarian rivalry in Christiandom via youthful bravado. Especially popular in Irish communities. Has NOTHING to do with anti-LGBT bigotry.
Hey Bill, want to play Beat the Protestant with us?
Sure! Just make sure the mother superior doesn't see us rough housing.
An aspiring metal band out of Ontario that embodies anything intensity could be construed to be. The range of the vocalist is impressive and amazingly flawless performed live, the drummer couldn't possibly make better use of his double bass pedal, and the guitarists pull off intricuit and beautiful parts. There's nothing more demanding than their sound, and they have the off stage personalities to pull it off. They're all around talented kids with an amazing work ethic and over powering stage presence. Not to mention great lyrics.
People who call this music emo probably can't even begin to comprehend the lyrics.
Kids who so pretentiously consider themselves music connoisseurs would only be able to appreciate music like this if they had an eclectic taste. None the less, this band and every band deserves respect no matter what your opinion of their sound is.
"Protest The Hero sucked at the vagrant stage! What are those emos donig on warped tour?!"
"High voices don't mean emo, low voices mean average. Talk to me when you can hit those notes, pull off those riffs, and get stage presence and a record label to back you up."

Protest the Hero is a thrash metal/metalcore/post-harcore/punk band from Whitby, Ontario, Canada. They are made up of Rody Walker(vocals), Arif Mirabdolbaghi(bass, vocals), Luke Hoskin(lead guitar, vocals), Tim Millar(rhythm guitar, vocals) and Moe Carlson(drums). They are a very talented band, judging from the material in their latest release, Kezia. They are not very emo, although it does sound like it sometimes in their music.
Random Poser: This band sucks. It's just a bunch of screaming and junk. Panic! At the Disco and Fall Out Boy are way better.
Me: Poser... Protest the Hero is better than all the bands you listen to. Any GOOD, TALENTED MUSICIAN will tell you that.

Being called emo only by those who have limited or no knowledge about modern musical genres, Protest the Hero is an incredible metal band, however, not in the traditional sense as defined by most metal head fans of bands such as Dragonforce. Nobody is required to enjoy Protest the Hero, but a little respect is the least one could offer to one of the most musically talented groups to come out of Ontario in as long as I can remember.
Dragonforce fan: "Isn't Protest the Hero emo?"
Hunter: "Well they must be if they're selling black sweatshirts - right moron?"

Protestant Ratism is the less structured form of Ratism. It is believed that the Rat is the true Deity but after further investigation, it is found that the original Ratist Texts are not confidential and invalid. This is shown in the different terms used for a place of worship, for example, "The Church of Rat" and "Ratist House of Prayer". It is said that there are buildings for prayer but there is indeed not. The Ratists almost always pray at a home shrine or drawn picture.
The Protestant Ratists believe in true equality, this is shown in how the members all worship together. There are no ranks among the Protestant Ratists, the Mother Rat shows everyone the same amount of love and respect. We worship on the sacred days, Monday and Thursday for that is when the Mother Rat arose from the Cesspool.
I'm am apart of Protestant Ratism, deal with it.
An incredibly talented band from Whitby, Ontario, Canada.
And good fucking god, they are in no way emo. Modern emo is bland, unoriginal, whiny, commercialized shit. These guys deserve some fucking respect.
They are all incredibly talented at what they do. The guitarists can tap/shred at a very high level of playing standards, as well as being able to come up with some very catchy riffs.
The rhythm section comes up with some very intricate, unique ways to back up the songs, and the bassist can do more on his bass than most 'emo' guitarists can play on guitar. He also writes some very good lyrics.
The vocalist has a great range of singing and screaming as well as a great stage presence.
So to summarize: Kick ass band, nothing to do with emo
They don't even deserve a metalcore label because metalcore is again bland and uncreative. These guys play progressive/math metal.
Check out Fortress, the latest album from Protest the Hero. It is worth every pennie.
