Skillet and Pillar

 

[Maggie893]

Here's R&R's current charts, check out their websites and listen to clips to see what you like or tune in to a Christian Rock Internet station like radiou.com. Personally I like Skillet, Thousand Foot Krutch, Sanctus Real and Switchfoot in addition to Pillar & Kutless. You also might like PAX217 even though they don't have anything on the charts at the moment.

[wgjones3]

I'm gonna rattle off some suggestions (specific albums are in parenthasis):

Third Day (Conspiracy No. 5), The Kry, Jars of Clay, London Calling (Not quite Christian but one of the guys who used to be in the band goes to my church and they play their New Sensation CD before youth group a lot), Todd Agnew, DC Talk (Jesus Freak), Jeremy Camp, Jennifer Knap, John Cox, Plumb (s/t), Strange Occurance (Another Day to Start Again).

Check over at Amazon.com or MusiChristian.com and they should have 30 second previews of the songs on most of these CDs. The London Calling one might be hard to come by though.

 

[Grl4Christ987]

If you like hard rock you'll like Zao(awesome band I just discovered today, yes yes I know sad). There's some other stuff too like more contemporary/alternative Rock like Building 429(the GREATEST band out right now, sides dc Talk) and more that I just can't think of right now.

 

[pro_odeh]

the christian rock band that has the best and most clear message of them all is Disciple! it's a bit hard rock, but they also have some easy songs.. more musical oriented i would like to suggest Thousand Foot Krutch, Kutless, Skillet, Switchfoot, Reliant K, Pillar, Audio Adrenaline, delirious, DC Talk.. and so on.. the best thing you can do is to go and check the charts somewhere, and listen to the songs, so you find the groups you like. But remember to look more in the lyrics than the music! personal experience.. good luck!

 

[ScottyD32]

thanks guys, much appreciated

 

[Trench777]

Don't know how "hardcore" you like your music, but some other bands you might like:

Wyrick (techno metal, EXCELLENT musical talent, Travis Wyrick now produces all Pillar's and Disciple's albums) {get Aggressive State of Christianity instead of Mental Floss, if you only get one album}

Disciple (old school "classic" metal, some say groove metal)

UnderOath (hardcore/scream)

As I Lay Dieing (hardcore/scream)

Tourniquet (speedish metal)

Demon Hunter (hardcore/speed)

Norma Jean (hardcore/scream)

Nodes of Ranvier (hardcore/scream)

Gears of Redemption (groove metal)

Travail (what my friend calls "ugly metal", heheh, but I LOVE them. Pity they broke up after only one album )

TwiceBorn (punk)

Stench (rapcore)

Judean RadioStatic ("dark", almost goth techno/electronica. Unreal musical skillz, a must have if you like obscure but outstanding Christian music.)

Laing (techno with distorted guitars, can't be classified as metal {imho}, but has metal undertones.)


Ok, that oughta keep your ears occupied for a while! I tossed in some "non-metal" groups, in case you are like me & have varied tastes.

GOD BLESS your quest for good Christian music!!

[Te_Adoro_68]

Thousand Foot Krutch (a lot like Kutless)
Seven Places (alternative)
Sanctus Real (like punk, except better.)
Jeremy Camp (maybe not all the way rock, but still awesome)
Building 429 (gets old fast, but great at the beginning)
Switchfoot (older stuff)
For All The Drifters (very unique style...I love it.)
