what are some of your favorite christian hardcore bands? i believe the breakthrough of christianity in hardcore music is a massive milestone in the development of the music business.
some of my favorite christian bands include-
1. sleeping giant
2. the chariot
3. the blood reckoning
4. for today
5. plea for purging
(yes, i am a 15-year-old christian girl, and this is my first thread. please provide constructive criticism.)
walk by faith, not by sight.

I can't get into this "genre" because about 99.6% of the bands sound alike, beat their themes to death, point too many fingers or want me to die for being a nonbeliever.
The other 0.4% are okay.
/gross stereotype
The entire marketing decisions leading to the label of "being Christian" distresses me. Jesus would not approve.
I have seen too much.
I haven't seen enough.

I constantly find myself confused whenever the topic of Christian bands come up.
Honestly, wouldn't most bands be considered Christian since Christianity is the clearly dominant religion here?
I just don't understand the point... unless you're aiming for moral superiority.

I thought it was Anthony who started this thread for a
split second. Glad I was wrong.
I've been up for days, trying to find a way to write
this confession down
Seems every line I writes a mess,
at least this I'll admit

This is my house please come on in
It's time to cleanse yourself from sin
Get thee down upon your knees
'Cos non belief is a disease, Amen
Come all ye faithful, heed the bells
This trip could save you all from hell
Burning Crosses through the night
Come and join the holy fight, Amen
So You hear your shepherd calling
My wrath won't be denied
Don't stand there looking sheepish
Come and join the flock inside
Who says these people are insane
It's only brainwash, quite humane
A thousand channels take your pick
Another mystic lunatic, Amen
Think You can challenge me come on
I've seen 'em off one by one
Old Gallileo's long forgot
Though he was right and we were not, Amen
Deliver you from evil
That never was the plan
Those who fall for this one
Deserve the lousy hand
This twisted truth, this slight of hand
Has kept the devil in command
Beyond those gates up in the sky
Sign up now for apple pie, Amen

Alright, Craig...............
.....Show me some examples, bud.
That statement is not what 'Christianity' is about.
I could see that in Islamic hardcore.......but not Christian.

I completely agree with you, Dante. Pointing fingers & condemning people for having different beliefs is NOT what Christianity is about (or so I hear).
I can't imagine that if God were real he would like people acting so hateful, all in his/her name.
Unfortunately though, from my own experiences (so maybe it's not like this everywhere), the VAST majority of Christians I have come across have not been the loving, accepting kind of Christians that just want to spread the word and bring people to Christ and so on and so on.

August Burns Red is one of the only self-proclaimed "Christian" bands that I can still listen to since I've scrapped Christianity. They're good musicians and even better dudes at heart.
Even if they do have a few lyrics that "point too many fingers."
Regardless, a band's personal beliefs don't really mean that much to me.
I'd just rather not be preached to when I go to a show to listen to some tunes and have a good time.
I swear...I swear I'll find you
I'll keep on searching, searching till the end of time.  And if I can't survive without you by my side,
then wait for me, wait for me,
Wait on the other side... I'll be there.

Dante, you know what happens when you have a topic that gets on your nerves even though you know better than to generalize a gross stereotype based on a few people?
Yeah...

this. exactly this, is why i shy away from most christian band shows. don't
get me wrong, you look at my last fm, you'll see about 75% christian
bands. the only christian bands i've seen that shy away from preaching
are emery and anberlin.

It's not really a genre. They're just like all other hardcore bands if genres are based on musicianship.
Yeah sure, lyrically, they write about morals, and indirectly, about God. That doesn't mean they're shoving religion down your throat. It's just like writing about cutting your wrists, and writing about love. It's how they feel. And if they feel that strongly about God, then let them.
I'm not particularly religious (though most of the bands I listen to are religious), just thought I'd put that out there.

All they do is replace every bitch,baby, or friend with Jesus.
And for a minute it all stops.
But it won't last man.

^ Haha that was the first one I went to as well. As I recall they were telling everyone to go out and vote so we can get that f*cker out of the office.
Warped 06 was the next time I saw them and they did a new lecture for every song and that was when I knew.
