But there are those bands which put their faith in Jesus Christ at the forefront of the their music, and those are the bands that I wanted to poll. I picked what I thought were the 8 most popular bands from this faith, but left the "other" option just in case there are other choices. This list just deals with regular Metal bands, and not the Metalcore scene, which is heavily populated with Christian bands. So please don't pick "other" if your choice is a Metalcore band.
So, please pick your favorite, and tell us a little bit as to why.
For me, I have to go with Living Sacrifice. While Stryper is will always hold a place in my heart, Living Sacrifice is still my pick. Their albums are all solid releases filled with some brutal music and powerful lyrics. Even since their break up they're still noted as being a huge force is the Christian music scene.
Poll

I've been listening to Frost Like Ashes a bit the past few weeks. I am really digging their album Tophet. Also, a friend gave me an old tape of a band called Messiah Prophet which is not all that great, but it is nice to hear some really, really early Christian Metal.

Written by Bad English on 23.06.2009 at 00:33 I am not sure where you could get it. A friend of mine from church was huge into the early Christian Metal scene and he had a cassette of Pure Metal that he let me borrow. I imagine that searching online might rend some outcome.

Stryper. I'm not Christian but I am a singer for a band and when I here good vocals I see Stryper. The vocals are very high pitched "To Hell with the Devil" most thought about song for Stryper but the vocals are great in it.

Extol and Stryper are ok, but neither are what i would call favorites. I honestly don't see how the concept of Christian metal is and different of better than the concept of Satanic metal. But thats just me.

I'm not a christian, and there's only one christian band I've ever liked, and that's Believer. I would advise any fan of thrash/prog death metal to check these guys out! Actually,...here you go! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CXav_s2xqsE

Written by Brave on 28.10.2009 at 03:02 Well, Tom Araya is a christian, and he plays in Slayer! It is kind of hard to take their anti-religion lyrics seriously when the person singing them is religious, but I still love the music! I haven't heard a christian black metal band, but I'm sure they do exist... lol

Written by Brave on 28.10.2009 at 03:24 Yes, Tom Araya is Roman Catholic, which is a denomination of Christianity. I highly recommend you read this and learn a little bit more about what Christian Metal is before making ignorant comments like you do.
