Nah. There are a lot of bad Christian rock/metal bands, but there are quite a few good ones too.

To name some I still come back to, even though I no longer identify as a Christian:

  • Skillet is an obvious one (not my thing anymore, especially everything after Awake, but can't call them bad)
  • Silent Planet
  • August Burns Red
  • Underoath (well, they used to be)
  • Fit For A King
  • Wolves At The Gate (though their lyrics can be too much on the nose)
  • Flyleaf (when Lacey Sturm was still on board)
  • Love & Death
  • Children 18:3

    I'm just going to tack a few more on here so I can find some of yours later, but I'd like to add:

    Nine Lashes, which are probably more overt than some

    Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, for the entirety of Don't You Fake It, and a few other songs

    Red

    Demon Hunter

    Switchfoot, don't @ me Dare You To Move is a banger

    Disciple

    Pillar

    Personally I still have a soft spot for Newsboys. Mostly just Shine, and Take Me To Your Leader. Those two still feel good.

    Initially I kinda liked Audio Adrenaline, but looking back with what we all know now about the impact of a car based society on the world, I gotta admit, "Chevette" didn't have an ounce of gospel in it, and was a much worse take on crappy cars that probably leaked toxic trash everywhere they went than Adam Sandler's "Ode to my Car".
