Fun Stuff > BAND
Can you recommend any Indie Christian music?
1patheticloser:
I came to this thread to discuss Sufjan Stevens, as he seems to have the most non-offensive (to me at least) spiritual vibes I've heard in a long time. Also, isn't that Kanye West album supposed to have similarly open emotion about his relationship with god?
On another note, the reason I don't like most everything else in the "Christian Music" genre is because the lyrics "I love Jesus, He's so great" gets really old after being sung by thousands of people in tons of different genres, or sometimes, by the same people in different genres (DC Talk, I'm looking at you...well scowling really). And just because a lot of rap talks about nothing but killing people, "bitches" and money in ways I disagree with, I wouldn't come out and say I hate black people. So let's stop talking about hating Christianity, and get back to talking about hating Christian music..
Also, Vegetarian-Atheist, represent. You guys can eat all the meat you want. It ain't got souls.

I know that at least his album "Seven Swans" is very Christian. It is also very awesome.
Do the Hidden Cameras count as a Christian band?

ok, for one, you can't have a 1025x1281 res.
bib for tuna, they are just scroll bars, quit spazzing.
when i posted the image it looked great and didn't disrupt the thread at all, since i run at 1600x1200 and everyone else should also. hope this helps.

FAITH PLUS ONE. Seven Swans is awesome. As is Newsboys, which I feel sort of embarassed to admit. hah.
But, really, I agree with most people that a lot of Christian music is crap. Mostly "I love god." lyrics repeated ad nauseam.
(and in case anyone thinks I am because I defended it, I'm not Christian, just a spiritual guy (not the kind that says it to cop out of answering the "Do you believe in God? question. I believe in God, but that pretty much everybody is going to heaven, and we should just all be nice)).

lofin - make that image smaller, please. Pictures shouldn't put a horizontal scrollbar on your screen when you're working with a 1025x1281 resolution.

I have to agree with pretty much everything you said, man. Just... yeah. There's a lot of Christian music out there that really just annoys me (and I happen to be Christian myself), but there are some really awesome groups *coughNewsboyscough* to be found out there.
Also, it wasn't until this thread that I remembered that I actually have a greatest hits album by DC Talk. Man, I haven't listened to that in a long time.
