List Of Christian Metal Artists
This is a list of Christian rock and metal artists, including artists that played Christian metal at some point in their careers. Christian metal, which is also known as white metal or heavenly metal, is heavy metal music with a Christian message. Christian metal is regarded more of a concept rather than a genre since it has no specific musical characteristics.

In the early 1990, the Australian death metal band Mortification rose to prominence within its country's underground metal scene. At the turn of the 21st century, P.O.D., with two platinum-selling albu ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
