Has any other album elevated Christian rock to a higher standard? This is one of my favorites, I really wanna hear more like it

Sadly most Christian rock sounds like Switchfoot and Jars of Clay, not that album
This album is so unbelievably based. I doubt there could be much more of this calibre.
Dead Artist Syndrome made the only good Christian goth album I know of.

A real shame. I don’t dislike folk or classical, but I really wish good Christian music existed in bulk outside those genres. Good Christian rock is few and far between
I actually like Creed
mewithoutyou and Hammock
hollowed ground by violent femmes is a very christian album but i would'nt call it as good as lift to experience's
Me too user.
U2 October and Joshua Tree have a lot of Christian themed lyrics, although they write about other topics and aren't in the CCM scene. They're pretty religious though.

In 2001 a Christian rock group had the #1 song in America
Oh god I hated this song
It's a catchy song with a good melody.
Low don’t make Christian rock albums but they are a Christian band that make great albums. Talk Talk as well.
I guess their music is more spiritual than anything.
isn't low mormon
i always did, too. honestly never understood the hate for them or nickleback. both of them just made standard radio-type rock. Good melodies, easy to digest, that sorta thing. And at the end of the day, what the fuck is wrong with that
Eh tomato, tomato
Talk Talk did, but it's so cryptic about it.
Yeah, so they’re not Christian.
if you want more Christian shoegaze, check out
Starflyer 59.
if you like post-hardcore, try out mewithoutYou.
Capitalism's homogenising effect is so strong that even when people attempt to give a list of products they HATE, they still produce a list basically identical to some other randomised skim of bands people LOVE, because fundamentally the people selected for polling will (a) have all listened to the same things, (b) have no standards, and (c) will base their decision on "This popular thing that people like, well I DIDN'T like it! It just wasn't for me!" which is a fundamentally massified and consumerized relationship to culture.
The people who hate Nickleback know that Hating Nickleback is an activity that you perform when you want your Facebook "Things I Like" biography to be more complete so people can know you're the kind of person who hates Nickleback, LOL their lyrics are so bad! The people who hate Creed know that CREED IS FOR PLEBS and I don't want to be a pleb. I only listen to sophisticated things, such as, Albums RYM And Scaruffi Tell Me Are Good.
Neat. Any idea where I can download a copy of that album? Seems rare.
