Christian Rock: A Brand, Not A Genre: Christian Pop Rock Bands

Christian alternative rock is a form of alternative rock music that is lyrically grounded in a Christian worldview. Some critics have suggested that unlike CCM and older Christian rock, Christian alternative rock generally emphasizes musical style over lyrical content as a defining genre characteristic

While bands such as Switchfoot and Jars of Clay are household names, the artists who paved the way for their success by first introducing modern rock to Christian music are all but forgotten by the very industry they created. Now, they are telling their story from the beginning to the present day, with additional updates bringing the content into 2019 from its original 2009 release. This book isn't about where are they now, but who are they now as with frank and sometimes shocking openness the ones who went before talking about their lives and times... a time that is not yet past.
