So i'm thinking that i should really stop listening to so much secular music, so i was wondering if any of you know any really awesome crazy emo or even screamo bands? Thanks <3Kar-uhh
I'm not really all that sure that if someone's a Christian, you can be emo since God gives you joy but what do I know. Delerious can sound emo, I think, sometimes.

That would be like saying you can't have a Christian punk band because the Sex Pistols sang all about anarchy.You can subscribe to the emo sound and not emulate the mindset.

You can go here for a good list of Christain bands:

Christian Rock (couldn't post an external link as it is my first post. This is at "dot net")Then click "artists" in the menu, This is an awesome resource for Christian Bands.

also in case you don't like filtering through all that stuff:

Pure Volume
(couldn't post link as it is my first post. This is at "dot com") This site has a good search for christian bands (some of the christian bands on there are not listed in the search cause it isn't in their genre discription)

and finally check out these bands:

Emo: Subseven, Skillet, Disciple, Chosen X, Blindside, 12 Stones

Hardcore: Project 86, Falling Up, Kids in the Way, East West

Screamo: Dead Poetic, Demon Hunter, Underoath, As I Lay Dying, Haste the Day, He is Legend, Living Sacrifice, Symphony in Peril

Most of these you can preview on Pure Volume

Hope you find what you're looking for.

I'll disagree with everything Karasu_Tengu put under the "Emo" list, but oh well.

Brandtson is great. Copeland is more like swoon rock, but I'd put them under "enjoyable".
I'm not going to categorize into emo/screamo/other but you may enjoy:
UnderOath, Mae, The Working Title, The Spirit That Guides Us, Puller, Crash Rickshaw, Roadside Monument, The Juliana Theory, Twothirtyeight, Stavesacre, mewithoutyou (which was already stated), The Beautiful Mistake, Stairwell, Vroom, Stretch Arm Strong, Element 101

ok. I'll stop.

Though I'm sure you'll agree that Six Feet Deep was much better. Your screen name is my favorite song that they did.

i couldn't ever really get into sixfeetdeep. maybe i heard the wrong songs, or maybe i'm just lame. :)
