01.15.13 | Recs welcome. When I started getting into Christian rock, thought it would be pretty crappy cause all I heard was stuff like Reliant K... so many good Christian rock bands out there |
Atari
01.15.13 | THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH RELIENT K! |
MMX

patman1001

ButtsweatAndTears

TrstN01

01.15.13 | @ Atari85 I downloaded 5 score and 7 years ago and really disliked it...
|
Atari
01.15.13 | ugh u can't judge relient k based off that album alone. that album was really uninspired and all the songs sound the same. listen to mmmhhhmmm |
J0ckstrapsFTW
01.15.13 | Haste the day is missing |
ButtsweatAndTears
01.15.13 | I'll try 'mmmhhhmmm' out... Some of the stuff I listened to by them was absurdly catchy.. I was expecting catchiness out of '5 score' Never got it |
Emim
01.15.13 | Check pretty much any of my related lists |
Atari
01.15.13 | well the thing about 5 score is it tried too hard to be catchy which made it feel so uninspired. their other albums are just naturally more catchy. mmmhhhmmm and their newest album forget and not slow down are their most mature albums. |
GiaNXGX
01.15.13 | EXTOL |
Vespiion
01.15.13 | War of Ages.
ALL CONSUMING FIRE
BURN |
solongatlast
01.15.13 | does Talk Talk count? They're about as christian as mewithoutyou.
Sleeping at Last is great though.
the Chariot? .... |
toxin.
01.15.13 | lol Atari now I see what you were talking about
Forget And Not Slow Down is Relient K's best though
Mmhmm is close though iirc |
toxin.
01.15.13 | Switchfoot isn't bad either but they tend to be hit and miss per album |
Vespiion
01.15.13 | Switchfoot makes a lot of good songs, but I really haven't found their albums that consistent. Oh! Gravity, Stars, Meant to Live, This Is Home, and Dare You To Move are great. |
Ecnalzen
01.16.13 | Wolves At The Gate [2]
Haste The Day [2]
Life In Your Way
Those are all good 'christcore' bands, as you put it.
Some other good ones you could try out:
The Classic Crime (alt rock)
Dead Poetic (post-hardcore/rock)
Blindside (post-hardcore/rock)
Spoken (post hardcore)
Slick Shoes (typically pop punk, but they have a melodic hardcore punk style in some of their stuff too) |
ZombieParty
01.16.13 | Deathspell Omega |
Hyperion1001
01.16.13 | satan > jesus |
Atari
01.16.13 | war of ages all consuming fire actually rules too that's their best album |
Trebor.
01.16.13 | Immolation
They sing about Christ a lot |
pissbore
01.16.13 | gonna jam some satancore |

Emim
01.16.13 | Not on this list |
DeathsThread
01.16.13 | The Chariot |
DeathsThread
01.16.13 | Thrice |
MrElmo
01.16.13 | the ultimate christian band is black sabbath, fact. |
Masochist
01.16.13 | Ecnalzen has it right. He even included Life In Your Way and Blindside.
Let's see...August Burns Red is great. I happen to be a fan of Becoming the Archetype, too, but some people don't like them. And...oh! For Christian post-hardcore (of the Thrice variety), Beloved is a must. |
Ecnalzen
01.16.13 | @masochist I am not the most religious person, but dammit all, there are some damn good christian/faith based bands out there.
I could be wrong, but I don't think Thrice started incorporating faith based lyrics until Beggars and Major/Minor. Unless I just didn't notice it on earlier works.
I always forget Beloved falls in this category. They only have one full length album, but its def worth checking out. Also, House Of Heroes is another good alt rock band of the Christian persuasion. |
RogueNine
01.20.13 | I'm sure Emim has a list like this somewhere, but I'd like to hear his thoughts. |
