I'm not normally one to listen to Christian music...

Orsorum

But I dragged out my old DC Talk "Supernatural" CD... wow. It has been a long time since I have heard contemporary music of such calibre.

Favorite Christian artists?

I do like Chevelle, but I don't consider them a "Christian" band. Creed... yeah, let's not go there.

lol, i like chevelle too, just saw them in concert as a matter of fact..good show.

but they do consider themselves "christian" in some way i havent yet discovered.

and creed, yeah i agree with you 🙂
 
i do have a couple of newsboys albums, they are pretty good. my son calls them "noisy" music. (he was only 4 at the time when he said that)
 
sorry, but Creed is awesome. Only one or two bad songs.

My favorite Christian band, though, is no longer around: Deliverance.


<--not a christian, but some of the best speed metal has a christian flavor.

excuse my ignorance, but what is speed metal?
 
I've given my opinion in another thread on this topic, but I'll do it again:

Third Day and Mercy Me are, simply, amazing bands. Very mainstream musically, but they don't compromise ANYTHING in lyrics. I have ALL the albums of both groups and never get tired of them.

😀

Ugh, the only large Christian radio station in Seattle is a "soccer mom" type music channel.

when you're online, if you have the bandwidth, check out Zradio. it's based in Orlando and their selection of music is pretty good. i listen to it at work a lot.
 
I like a lot of Christian metal, like Zao, Extol, Crutch, Tourniquet, and some of more socially accpetable like Newsboys and Audio Adrenaline. I saw the latter two in concert and they rocked hard.

EDIT: oh yeah, I forgot about Deliverence. They're pretty cool. And speed metal is just that; heavy metal that is very fast. Think early Metallica, or some Iron Maiden.

Wow, we have like 5 stations here where I live (SW Florida). One is more directed towards the younger crowd.

You can listen my local station online though: http://wayj.wayfm.com/
 
They are a bit preachy but I like Caedmon's Call.
Much more "main stream" is Jars Of Clay.
There are a few others that my wife has but I don't know their names.

The music is very good. Sometimes the lyrics can get preachy but sometimes they are quite profound and make me feel warm inside. Then I kick up my heals and DANCE!

I can't get used to Electric guitars in church. hehe. Not that I go all that often. I would actually enjoy going to a Christian mass but I laugh every time someone "raises their hands in glory". I'm not being anti-anything here, I know some are so against any kind of religion, that's not me but I think it's funny.

What a great album! It was more subtle than Jesus Freak.
I also like Newsboys and Stephen Curtis Chapman. There's a lot of good stuff there.

These days, I don't bother letting the "religious affiliation" of a band affect my thinking. Good music is good music, whether it's purely secular, Buddhist chants, or contemporary Christian.

They don't tell you what or who is playing.

Caedon's Call is great..so's Jars of Clay.

I think my personaly favorite is probably Avalon.

Point of Grace is pretty good too. Mercy Me, of course. Oh..and I really like Sonicflood.

so many...but I'm not gonna list them all. hehehe.
