Christian Alternative Rock





HISTORY

Christian alternative rock has its roots in the early 1980s , as the earliest efforts at Christian Punk and New Wave Music were recorded by artists like Daniel Amos , Andy McCarroll And Moral Support , Undercover , The 77s , Adam Again , Quickflight , Youth Choir (later renamed The Choir ), Lifesavers Underground , The Altar Boys , Steve Taylor , David Edwards , and Vector . By the 1990s , many of these bands were being carried by independent labels, such as the growing Tooth & Nail Records , because their music tended to be more lyrically complex (and often more controversial) than mainstream Contemporary Christian Music .

The term "Christian" and "Alternative" are inherently contradictory and this musical style is a joke.
