Rap sucks.

Music is a matter of personal preference so go listen to your Linkin Park and quit spamming the thread.

rap is ok, but I'm not much for christian rap.  for the obvious reason of it being c-rap.

yeah, most of the quote un-quote christian music out there is just a normal song with the girl's name changed to "God" or "Jesus"

and that's just pretty pathetic...
Listen to Casting Crowns, You might just change your mind. Nichole Nordman, Neswboys, and MercyMe are good too.  :up:

Last time i checked its the members lounge NB and im still on topic as mm rightly points out theres nothing wrong with me disagreeing. Its something ur immensely familiar with as you seem to do in on any thread where someone passes an opinion!

Tempest hears what im saying as well!

Dead Celebrity Status. Not only is their music great to listen to, but they've got a real message to deliver (most of the time).

Gotta agree with lem0n on this one. Nothing wrong with posting one's opinion.

i actually am not a big fan of casting crowns. i didn't like their song Every Man even though tons of my friends did. i actually haven't listed to much by nichole nordman, so i can't "pass an opinion". newsboys aren't terrible. i like Stay Strong. MercyMe never really jumped out and grabbed me. Caedmon's Call though, they are good. very good. i especially like their last album, Overdressed.

i'm not saying there isn't good christian music out there, but if you turn the radio on to a christian station, 95% of the songs are puke...

Yea, well I guess that's right.

As for casting crowns. I didn't really like Every Man, but I do like:
Your love is extravigant
East from the West
Prayer for a friend
and some others that I forgot.

MercyMe is an ok band, but yea, I can find better.

Okay, lem0n, I concede. Continuing cluttering the thread with your useless posts and we shall all ignore them.

Yeah, Casting Crowns is way overplayed.

See, with Christian music, you need to avoid the stuff on the radio, because the only good band that gets lots of play is Kutless...and Skillet, Skillet is okay. But with Christian bands, the less play they get, the better they are (see TFK, Disciple, Falling Up as opposed to Casting Crowns, MercyMe and RelientK).

Some good Christian bands:

FALLING UP!!!!!!!! (experimental rock- they have not made a bad song- and I own every single one of their songs...except the unreleased ones- FANGS COMING MARCH 24th!)
Thousand Foot Krutch (nu-metal, rapcore- Phenomenon is their greatest album)
12 Stones (post-grunge ala 3 Doors Down, Creed and Nickelback- Anthem for the Underdog is a brilliant album, Potter's Field- not so much)
Disciple (hard rock, but a different tinge based on the album, some albums are metal sounding, some screamo, their latest is southern rock style)
Anberlin (alternative)
P.O.D. (nu-metal and a really cruddy latest album that doesn't do them justice...)
Skillet (depends on the album- Invincible is electronica, Collide is hardcore rock, Comatose is symph rock, the rest is not worth listening to).
Project 86 (ANARCHO-PUNK! and post-hardcore...)
Switchfoot! (uh...Switchfoot?)
The Fray (Piano Rock)
Lifehouse (Pop Rock)
Nevertheless (Indie Pop)
Paramore (uh...Paramore?)

And yeah, I know, Paramore, Lifehouse and The Fray are probably bands you've heard of. Yes, they are indeed Christian bands. Not too bad, eh?
