I like classic hymns and country based songs.

As my avatar suggests, I'm a big fan of Five Iron Frenzy. To me, there's no better Christian band, just based on how earnestly and realistically they tackle tough but crucial subjects from doubt and struggles with faith to 'Christian' hypocrisy and hatred. Even their praise and worship songs avoid the usual corniness with a sly, humble sense of humor. I just find their lyrics to be a lot more relevant and resonant than a lot of what I hear on Christian radio...their last album 'Engine of a Million Plots' had amazing messages about keeping faith alive in times of crushing darkness and uncertainty, and it really helped me and my faith through a very turbulent time in my life. I can't say that about any other Christian band.

Other than that, I don't really listen to a lot of "Christian music" because...well, not a whole lot of it is very good, or is at least too cheeseball for my liking. I don't mind Hillsong or Audrey Assad, they can craft some good tunes, but usually any Christian artists I really dig are ones who crossed over into secular audiences in my preferred genres of punk rock (Five Iron, MxPx and a lot of the stuff on Tooth & Nail Records), ska (The O.C. Supertones, The Insyderz) or progressive rock (Neal Morse, Glass Hammer, Iona). I...have a varied assortment of musical preferences.

Non- Christian bands that are comprised of Christian members: The classic crime

I am sure there are plenty I am forgetting

If any of you want music suggestions I love the Christian music scene (mostly uncommon bands that are under-rated).

 

[scottdarrygriffiths]

Some of my favorites are Jeremy Camp, Blindside, P.O.D.,Switchfoot,Kutless,Third Day, Nichole Nordeman, and Anberlin.

 

[followthestar]

I like Christian rock like Skillet and RED, CCM like Danny Gokey, and sometimes rap like Lecrae. I have a hard time finding metal but i like Wolves At The Gate and Theocracy. (Most of the stuff on my phone is secular though)

 

[Journey.In.Grace]

I love Jeremy Camp. His recent album is just amazing, and spoke to me on a deep level.

 

[ForeverEternal]

My favorites include David Crowder Band, Hillsong, Relient K and sometimes Lecrae. I've tried listening to other bands/artists, but I just can't feel anything from them. Some of them feel like they're trying too hard to be cool. I like stuff similar to Relient K because they speak on an emotional level rather than trying to capture the "Cool" and "Hip" crowd.

Third day (rock)
Petra (80th rock - Three great albums -> Back to the street, On fire, This means war)
Bruce Moss (very bible inspired songs) https://thebloodofthelamb.com/video
The Franz family (bluegrass)
Citizens and saints
Christafari (worship reggae)

Still looking for more good Christian music.

I understand you like them. It's a bit of what I'm looking for. Christian music that even non Christians can like. "Normal" music with Christian lyrics (I haven't checked their lyrics yet, though).

I got that album now. It better be good or else .... !

Edit: Now I have listened to that album. I think it's great music. I wish though that the lyrics would be more centered in Jesus, God and faith. Even so, Christ is mentioned in one of the songs of the album, the Father is mentioned and so on.

I see you're into Christian rock, so I'd recommend bands like Newsboys, Casting Crowns, and Jars of Clay that are pretty similar to Third Day, and if you like Petra, check out Stryper, a Christian metal band from the 80s.

Thanks! I have looked those bands up on youtube, but none of them has really got me. Casting Crowns, I think I liked best.

Thousand Foot Krutch, Chris Tomlin, The Kry and FM Static.
