Crush42 (2015-12-12 23:59:34)IDK, Alpaca, 'religious music' is a very broad label. I like P.O.D., Newsboys, Skillet and Flyleaf, all of whom could fall under such label.
SicSemperTyra (2015-12-13 00:04:26)^^I agree with you on the most part. I have heard a decent Christian Rock song though. Nothing to behold tbh.

Perfect_Chaos (2015-12-13 00:34:06)I've heard some amazing religious songs. I don't like country though.
Alpaca (2015-12-13 03:01:29)I can tolerate Skillet because while the themes are pretty obvious, it's still tolerable.
Twenty One Pilots members are both Christians and Tyler Joseph (who Id say personally is more Christian than Josh Dun lol) writes some of the songs with hidden Christian meanings but they're written in such a way that it could be interpreted however.
Ode to Sleep to me is about depression, which if kind of is, but it talks about how he's "pleading on his knees", "asked for forgiveness three times, same amount he denied", and finally "I'm afraid to tell you who I adore, who I am singing towards, metaphorically I'm a wh0re, and that's denial number four!" and in the Bible the term "wh0re" is sometimes used simply for a sinner. Still, it's not religious to me personally. Because I'm atheist.
There's also Doubt which says "Don't forget about me, even when I doubt you. I'm no good without you" which could be a Christian saying they're no good without Christ but to me it's my song stating my fear of my friends leaving me.
Then... "The Judge"
"You're the judge, oh no, set me free. I know my soul's freezing but hell's hot for good reason. So please, take me"... This one is harder to interpret in a nonreligious way and I don't know. With this one I pay more attention to lines I can relate very much to like "I'm not good with directions, and I hide behind my mouth. I'm a pro at imperfections, and I'm best friends with my doubts."
"I'm thinking, 'I probably should've stayed insure my house!'"
Then Polarize says things like "I wanted to be a better brother, better son." which the Internet says he means spiritually - as in, a brother in Christ, the son of Christ. To me I use it as my regrets to when I was mean to my [earthly] brother or my early mama.
The sign literally also says "Domingo en fuego" which is Spanish for "Sunday is on fire". And after that says "I think I lost my halo. I don't know where you are, you'll have to come and find me."... but to me I could again. At least interpret this part as regret for some bad actions. It doesn't have to connect to religion.
I don't believe in God.
Nemesis (2015-12-13 03:03:15)I've only listened to one Skillet song it was called Monsters or something
Alpaca (2015-12-13 03:06:24)it's just Monster
and that song is edgy af it's practically the Christian version of The Monster I Have Become by Three Days Grace
Alpaca (2015-12-13 03:25:59)There's this girl at my school who's Baptist but she's a weeaboo and likes Creepypastas too but like... guess her favorite band? Skillet.... Yeah... because her mom probably wouldn't let her listen to BOtDF or something...
TheIronMadden (2015-12-13 04:05:23)Apparently the song I linked is considered "downcore". However, could it possibly be "upcore"?
You won't see me here, but you might find me if you look in the right places.
Alpaca (2015-12-13 06:08:09)I misread Knife Party as "knife city" and was confused because knife city is a member of Anamanaguchi, a really good punk rock chiptune band.

Country and Religious are the worst music genres.
