Nickleback is the only modern rock band I seem to care about much anymore. There are a few others but I seem to be growing further and further away from this style. I used to like almost all the ones on Alldats list but after a few spins I seem to get bored with them or something. Usually the problem is the vocals.

Something has really been happening in the secular scene though that I don't mind and actually quite like. Some metal band are incorporating more "modern elements" (like start stop guitar riffs) into their songs and I kinda dig that.

I have learned about TONS of bands through these forums, so I really appreciate them.

Same here, when I stumbled on to the CHM (about 3 years ago now). I had all of half-a-dozen, Christian rock/metal albums. I have fleshed my coolection out to well over 300 (approaching 400) Christian hard rock and metal artists. Nearly all of them I heard about first here at CHM (or the CMR).

I wish I had of had something like CHM when I first started getting back into Christian metal and rock. I took a few years off from Christian rock, and I had to search and search the web to find out about what was going on in Christian music.

I love a lot of modern rock bands. I also love me some good melodic metal, but I don't think I could really call myself a "metal-head" either. I'm just a rocker, and I am not going to let myself become bored with just one style....EVER! There are too many good rock & metal bands, so the current Christian music scene is a veritable buffet for me. And, for those that know me--I can put away a lot at a buffet!

Playing catch up is difficult--especially since there is always something new coming out, too.

That's why we all have to post when there's something new.
A good forum you make with all the members.
Each has something and together we share a lot of cool information about bands.

I've paid a small fortune for a couple of discs.
