    Underoath is a CHRISTIAN BAND??!!

    Well i was at church this morning and after the service let out i went into the christian music store. I looked at the top 10 rock albums and here it went (these are the artists not the album name)
    1. Chris Daughtry (Sorry if i spelled it wrong)
    2. Flyleaf
    3. Casting Crowns
    4. Underoath

    I was like WTF?! For of those who dont know they sing Desperate Times Desperate Measures. Keep in mind this song has a lot of screaming i was surprised. Did any else no this?

    EDIT: dont be hatin the christians!

    Yep, they sure are. I think it's funny how a lot of people don't consider Christian Rock artists as real rockers. They think just because they're classified as christian the music's no good.

    Oh, and Kutless is classified as christian rock as well. In case you didn't know.

    It just goes to show that Christian Rock isn't all as cliched as people believe. I've actually been waiting for more Flyleaf since I first heard "All Around Me".

    there are loads of Death Metal Christian and even Black Metal Christian bands out there. In your naivety you assume that because something is Metal it couldn't possibly have a positive message.

    Hey, just because he's Jewish doesn't mean he can't make Christian Rock songs. Let's not discriminate.

    Generally I don't like Christian Rock; most of what I've heard isn't all that good.. Like bands trying to use the "Christian" label to get more sales and stuff.

    However, I like the Underoath song in Rock Band, and I'm So Sick isn't bad. Oh, and Spirit in the Sky is catchy and fun to play in game.. But not something I'd listen to outside of Rock Band,

    If you take a second to look at the band's name, it's not a big surprise
