Ok. If you're a band right? An artist in your field. You play music that you like, that you feel suits you.

Why is it nessacary to then add 'Christian' in front of your classification? Are you scared the Pope is goingto think you're satanistic because your music videos involve blood and naked chicks? Scared that screaming like Satan about mutilation and killing people is going to get you judged and feared? It's bullshit.

What do you [moderately] astute forum-readers think?

christian bands suck in general, and none of them are "hardcore" ...they are all post modern hardcore... not true hardcore...

you want some good hardcore? go listen to Ceremony.

Slipknot is metal. It's not even close to being hardcore.

Let's not get our personal opinions get in the way when classifying bands, squire. :D Though I do agree, they suck. Big time.

actually slipknot is in the nu-metal genre...

howevarrr... i tend to be rather in the middle on these subjects...

I LOVE HARDCORE MUSIC, and its fans... i dont judge people... sooo.... ya

anyway... Christian music... to put it infront of a genre seems useless... if you are going to portray your religious beliefs in your music, that just changes the crowd you are appealing towards... not the musical genre itself

The only decent 'christian' band I listen to is Hawk Nelson. Even then, I disagree with a lot of their thoughts.
Their pretty good, though. [=
