The best band ever and forever they will be the best band ever

2 Red Red is an American Christian alternative metal/alternative rock band from Nashville, Tennessee. The band was formed in 2002 by brothers Anthony Armstrong (guitarist) and Randy Armstrong (bassist), along with lead vocalist Michael Barnes.

My most favorite band of all time. These guys have talent, I went to one of their concerts last year and Anthony Armstrong sprayed a water bottle in the audience and it was awesome! These guys really do have true faith, and a good foundation. Not sure if they are rock or alternative/nu metal.

I still love skillet but honestly red is far better in almost every respect.

Red is the best band but were the heck is the red jumpsuit apparatus

Founded in 2000 by vocalist Tim Lambesis, the establishment of the band's first full lineup, which included drummer Jordan Mancino, occurred in 2001.

I may be wrong but I recall the band or singer or whatever only claimed to be Christian for fans

The lead vocalist hired a hit man to kill his wife, I have no respect for this band.

Chek demm out, they rock HIS name above!... :D

6 Demon Hunter Demon Hunter is an American Christian metal band from Seattle, Washington, started in 2000 by brothers Don Clark and Ryan Clark. Although the brothers created the band together, only Ryan remains, since Don left the band to take care of his family.

They're so bold and upfront about their faith and they've got an awesome sound.

They are true believer in god

7 Flyleaf Flyleaf is an American rock band formed in Bell County, Texas, in 2002. The band has charted on mainstream rock, Christian pop and Christian metal genres.

I truly think they are amazing! They really did save my life. It's not the same without Lacey but Lacey has gone solo and I can't wait to here m

Awesome band saved my life so many times I've Ben through so much and they got me through the worst I love yall wish yall still had lacey though

I love their songs, their amazing! But its true, its not the same without Lacey

I love flyleaf and skillet and red and tfk, amazing truely amazing!

8 Paramore Paramore is an American rock band from Franklin, Tennessee, formed in 2004. The band currently consists of lead vocalist Hayley Williams, guitarist Taylor York, and drummer Zac Farro.

If Paramore weren't already amazing enough, the fact that ALL the members of Paramore (Hayley, Jeremy, Taylor) are Christians, makes them even more amazing! In a few of their songs you can here little hints of their faith, without cramming Christianity down your throat, which I really appreciate. Paramore has helped me through a lot and still does, and even saved my life. This band is truly amazing and a strong inspiration to me!

Many people say that the changes they've made are a result of them leaving their faith, but that's not true! The member of Paramore are still devout Christians! Hayley Williams has a cross tattooed on her inner thigh for crying out loud! LOVE. THIS. BAND.

Paramore is my 3rd favorite band, the fact that they are Christians and they are influenced by their Christianity makes me relate to them even more, which makes me love them even more!

I love Paramore. If you don't really believe the members are Christians just listen to their song Part II all the way to the end.

These guys are my favorite band and have been since Sophomore year of high school (I'm a Sophomore in college now) and they've gotten me through so much before I knew Christ and after I came to Christ. Not only can I bang my head, but worship while I do it too!

They are the best of the best with really cool lyrics. Number one in my opinion. Back burner, Empire and so many more
