I gotta check some of this stuff out. I love prog, and I love Contemporary Christian(Amy Grant, Chris Tomlin etc). So chances are good that I'll love this!

I listened before and checked out your bandcamp, I guess you don't have an album yet. Hyperlinking your video to make it easier for people to listen. https://youtu.be/InDvIJYKCbk By the way, I love quite a lot of Christian freak folk. And Lalo Schifrin's Rock Requiem is one of my favourite Christian themed albums. Edited by Logan - September 09 2017 at 04:40 |

I can see Neal Morse taking the cake for this ideal.
Amusingly enough, there's plenty of 'Christian' Death-Metal in existence. A bit laughable, might I say......... |

It's one of those albums that takes me back to another time, and that is probably the most "out there" track on the album (love the whole album-). I was once helping to put together a religious-themed playlist, and that plus Thomas Tallis' Lamentations for Jeremiah were two of my picks. There is so much great Christian-themed or inspired music through the ages. Christianity has, of course, been a massive inspiration for music, literature, and art and helped to shape Western culture generally. By the way, you mentioned Amy Grant, the first CD I bought for my wife was Amy Grant's My Father's Eyes, produced when Amy Grant was still a teenager (beautiful album). |

I can actually think of two Christian religious / devotional prog albums that I hold fairly dear, Wapassou's Messe en ré mineur and Jukka Gustavson's Yksin yhdessä...jaloa ylpeyttä yletän...ylevää nöyryyttä nousen. Both a pretty far cry from Neal Morse, though.

There's plenty of excellent religious music out there, so I certainly have no objection to progressive rock or any genre being spiritual in tone or subject matter, but it seems silly to suggest a new genre or subgenre based purely on lyrical content. I know a lot of people consider the variety and breadth of subgenres pedantic, but there are legitimate musical distinctions between each classification on this website, some of which are even still too broad (RIO/Avant, Progressive Electronic).

The finest CPR ever produced. The Trees Community - The Christ Tree. Noticed its in the archives. Good work by whomever fixed that. As beautiful as music gets:
I kind of collect 70's xtianpsych-folk - especially of the innocent-sounding but often apocalyptic and judgement day-oriented kind. Here's the masterful opening of season three of Leftovers (so much better than the resurrected Twin Peaks). The Good News Circle - I Wish We'd All Been Ready Loveliest doom-laden tune ever. Gotta love that deep bassline: -It is very unfortunate that everyone will associate the genre with cardiopulmonary resuscitation. How about you progressive christians change the C to an X as well? Voila! - you change from literally begging to be ridiculed to become awesome in an instant. |

Thanks for posting these. The second one I know from DC Talk. And for the record I spell Christmas just like that. No X. |

YESESIS, Up in the Appreciation forum we've got a Twelfth Night thread. TN were led on two studio albums and one live album by the sorely missed Geoff Mann, one of the best vocalists and lyricists with which the world at large is unfamiliar. After TN, Geoff fronted a couple namesake bands (A Geoff Mann Band, Eh! Geoff Mann Band) and one called The Bond, and also performed solo. These were all Christian prog/rock bands (The Bond was more straightforward). Here's a great song from Loud Symbols. an album by A Geoff Mann Band. |
