Can you recommend any Indie Christian music?
Malkster:
I’m not looking to debate the merits of the Christian faith. That is a discussion for another place and time. And one I’m not particularly interested in at the best of times. I am however very tired of the Christian music I have in my library. I’d appreciate 3 or 4 recommendations from you, if you listen to this genre of music at all, that might be able to fill out my library a bit. Right now I have only some cuts from Sonic Flood and some other Hillsong stuff.
I’m looking for newer (last 3 years) and not necessarily mainstream.
Cheers.

Why yes!
Joy Electric.
Actually, I recommend JE to everyone I know (ask them... it gets annoying), Christian or not. I am not even religious myself, although that is something I've been thinking a lot about changing.
Anyway, the music: think totally awesome catchy indiepop tunes. Then think about recording them using nothing but a vintage analog monophonic synthesizer, a lot of multitracking, and an analog sequencer. No instruments! No samples! No MIDI! I don't know how Ronnie does it, but it's amazing.
Praeserpium Machinarum:
Lampshade
they are a danish shoegazer/mild noise rockband, and they are pretty christian from what I've heard.
Obstinate Esther
danish christian super low-fi thing, I think they sing in danish though.
Br. Danielson - Brother Is to Son
surrealism and christianity collide!
Bonnie 'prince' Billy - Master and Everyone is pretty christian I suppose.
So is Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds - No More Shall We Part, there are almost hymn-like songs on that one.

Remember how I said that Coldplay thread was the second worst thread ever? This is why.
Hm...
You might want to try the Vaselines, although they're definitely not from the last 3 years.
Also, you want to try the Misfits.

Now-defunct London band who started out kinda indie, went pop-punk, then went back to kinda indie-pop-rock again. Great stuff.
Good Question are great, I don't think they have a website yet unfortunately.
