To all of you complaining about Christians needing their own genre... It's not a genre. It's simply a tag that is used to collect artists that deal with Christian themes lyrically and/or musically. Excuse us for wanting to easily discover new artists that share our faith. If you don't like it, don't listen to it. Simple as that. [2] To be clear, I'm an atheist, and I don't even listen to Christian rock.

What does it matter how it's tagged. Some of these bands are super awesome and skillet performs ''angels fall down'' and ''shout to the lord'' which are just amazing songs. And I'm 100% atheist, I don't even perceive those songs as about god but about something nice in general. Sure the ''oh looord oh loooordie you're everything'' sucks, but the songs are beautiful and harmless, they lift my mood just as good or even better as other songs :). Haters gonna hate.

Very true... From what I heard. I rarely listen to popular Christian rock groups. It's obviously an attempt to reach out to people. Some people like it, others don't. But as with all music, if you search, you will find groups that really stand out and are something special.

Why are so many Christian Rock artists derivative of secular ones? The Christian Rock industry kind of sucks because of that.

Yeah, funny. This tag is for you, dear atheists, to not being surprised when you'll be listening to a good song and notice that it's telling about religion. It may change your social status when your friends find out about this, remember ;) Anyway, Red is awesome.

So... it is basically rock by Christians? Surely it is just rock then. Is there a Hindu rock, Jewish rock or Muslim rock? Why categorise an artist into a completely different genre just because they believe in god and have Christian values. I mean, some of them, take Relient K or MxPx for example, don't talk about god enough for there music to be even considered that religious.
