Fit For A King is phenomenal. Red is also good but I don’t consider it metal.

Red isn't heavy enough for me.

Skillet - not metal
Red - not metal
Thousand Foot Krutch - not metal
Demon Hunter - metal? maybe?
P.O.D - nu metal, is that really metal?
Disciple - great band, not metal
Stryper
Flyleaf - not metal
Creed - not metal, not good

So by default, Stryper is the best Christian metal band on your list. :D

Another one is “Like Moths to Flames”, but they actually talk about questioning God rather than preaching about.

I believe their first release was on Steve Taylor's Squint label after that I think they went more mainstream but you'd have to check me on that.

Go read the lyrics to After Forever.

They were certainly Christian-educated.
I definitely agree with this much more so than calling them a Christian band.

1. Stryper is better now than they were in the 80's. Their last 3 albums are pretty heavy and very, very good. Took my daughter to see them last May and they were great live.

2. The Christian metal scene right now is better than it has ever been. I've been writing mini-reviews for a while now and working with a couple of record labels on hyping product. I love the grass roots nature of what's going on right now and there's so many good bands, especially extreme metal.

As for my favorites, I love Phinehas and Impending Doom, Temple of Perdition, and Signum Regis quite a bit. Those are my favorites.
Interesting. I will have to check them out again. In the 80s the sort of had to cater to the commercial scene at the time writing power ballads.

Have you heard Lo-Ruhamah? Little-known band. Really heavy and extremely talented.

Saw these guys open up for Tool back in 2010. Put on a pretty unique show. It’s not metal, more of a dark folk, but definitely heavy. When I looked them up after the show I was surprised to find that the Christian imagery he sang about was sincere and not tongue in cheek. I mean, the were opening for Tool for ****’s sake. Guess the guy used to be a junkie, found god, and got clean. It’s the only modern Christian band, or band with Christian themes, that I can really stomach. Give it a listen if so inclined.
