Music that reaches out to today's mostly younger generation, and enables christians and non-christians to have something in common because they have similar tastes in
music. It is labeled rock for its sound, not lyrics (which explains why there is also christian
rap, pop, and punk music). It provides an escape from the profane and vulgar lyrics of secular rock music, and emphasizes everyday battles and temptations that we face.
Christian rock bands include Haste the
Day, Still Remains, Underoath,
Flee the Seen, THOUSAND FOOT KRUTCH, Chasing
Victory, Pillar, The Showdown, etc.
