Just haven't heard any other that appealed to me.I doubt any other would, that I can think of off-hand. His music is the only Christian music that has ever appealed to me that was "music first." Most Christian music is "message first". Does that make sense?

"Regular" praise music won't have a five-minute instrumental section in a 20-minute song (or a 10-minute instrumental in a 30-minute song)
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.
Your praise band is cooler than mine.

Basically, the violinist and I are the only musicians in our band. Everyone else can play, if I write all their parts for them and we rehearse everything for weeks. The concept of ad-libbing or even just leaving something open-ended like "repeat until I signal for us to stop" genuinely baffles some of them. I thought we were getting better, so this summer I again tried a few things such as I described above; I thought maybe we were ready for it. We were not.
But Kotow is right .
Somehow this whole "praise music" thing struck me more as a protestant thing to do, but looks like there's this: https://catholicmetal.com

Winger would be better!
I've been digging into some 80's/90's christian rock recently, some of the better ones I've found are Idle Cure, Eden, and Sure Conviction. Idle Cure had some really good stuff.P.K. Mitchell released an album of pretty kick ass arrangements of old church hymns in the early to mid 90's. Like I said, it's old hymns so the christianity is going to be in your face, but he did a great job with them imo.
And I think you might have got Sure Conviction from one of my album posts ? Glad you liked them - pretty obscure stuff but I really liked the "Get Ready" album - the rest of their stuff didn't seem as good..
I like that the Christian music thread was started by the "chaotic ripper" I am agnostic but like plenty of Christian rock/metal , but there is a line where it gets too preachy. Just a few off the top of my headStryperHoly SoldierKing JamesMastedon (Elefante) and Elefante solo , although he sometimes crosses "the line".WhitecrossThe BraveWe've talked about Deliverance before Cozmo
Petra is a semi-progressive rock band that I would highly recommend.
