The Christian punk/indie/whatever scene isn’t limited to the United States. I can think of relevant bands from literally every inhabited continent, which is a truly wonderful thing. Punk band Homonovux call Mexico home, specifically the Yucatan region. They’ve released two EPs since forming a few years ago. Their musical inspiration comes primarily from 90s punk rock (new school punk, skate punk, and a little bit of pop-punk too), but their lyrical inspiration is the message of salvation. This point is made very clear on their Bandcamp page (https://homonovux.bandcamp.com/… Continued →

Alternative/folk/pop duo Say-So comprised married couple Jim and Kim Thomas. They had actually been making music together for over a decade when their eponymous debut was released in 1997 for Organic Records. The album featured a fresh take on folksy, rootsy, alternative pop-rock that was ‘light’ enough to appeal to fans of CCM, yet unconventional enough to appeal to listeners with more alternative-leaning tastes. The band’s sound sat comfortably with artists like Sixpence None the Richer (especially their earlier material), Rich Young Ruler, and Five O’Clock People.… Continued →

Indie pop duo Bon Voyage was a collaboration of Jason Martin (Starflyer 59, and about a dozen others) and his wife Julie on vocals. The project was somewhat accurately described as “Starflyer with female vocals,” which is not inaccurate though not really complete either. Whereas SF59 added layers and layers of guitars and fuzz, Bon Voyage stripped things back to the pop essentials. Julie’s vocals are akin to Julee Cruise, most famous for her work on the Twin Peaks soundtracks. The band released three albums for BEC and/or Tooth and Nail, and we haven’t heard from them since 2008.… Continued →

Zane Vickery’s upcoming album, Interloper, is undeniably one of emotional weight. That reality doesn’t downplay the joy, hope, and healing that are just as prevalent. Vickery’s final single, “Sad Dads Club,” explores themes of personal shortcomings, trying to keep up with the Joneses, and going numb to the world – all while reflecting on childlike wonder and how in moments where we feel like we’re barely moving forward, God can carry us through to the finish line. Musically, it’s a bright, synth-laden indie track with modulated guitars, Vickery’s incredible trademark vocals, and a huge mid-song crescendo.… Continued →

Possession was a thrash metal band (with speed metal, black metal and death metal tendencies) from Kansas. They released one full-length album and 2 EPs in the mid-90s (as well as a 2-disc compilation of all recordings in 2020), and despite their innovative, genre-bending sound, managed to stay very underground. To evade a controversy with secular metal label Metal Merchant–and some alleged wrongdoing on the part of the label–Possession self-released their recordings, to much critical acclaim but to no commercial success. Ironically, what made them a listener’s and critic’s favorite, yet kept them in the underground, was precisely their unique take on extreme metal.… Continued →

This top-notch emo band came to us from Florida (members called both Tallahassee and Orlando home). They released two singles and two full-length albums in the short span between their formation in 1999, and calling it quits in 2006. But that’s not the full story. Forever Changed stood out from the seemingly limitless pack of faith-based emo bands in the late 90s/early 00s, in a number of ways. They were incredibly musical–complex arrangements, fitting production, and capable instrumentation. And their lyrics/songwriting skills matched the music. They were open and bold in expressing their faith, but achieved the rare feat of not sounding trite, preachy, or platitudinous.… Continued →

Legendary hardcore band Focal Point, from Northern California, is well-known not so much for the music they created (tragically), but for the groups that had their origin in the quintet. Training for Utopia, Demon Hunter, Nyves, and Low and Behold all trace their origins back to Focal Point at least in part. As important as those connections are, it’s a shame that too few actually remember the music of Focal Point, as it’s probably my favorite of all the aforementioned. They arrived on the scene late in the “new school hardcore” movement of the early 90s as hardcore was becomingly increasingly more metallic, and yet hadn’t fully shifted into metalcore, which would happen a year or two after Suffering of the Masses dropped.… Continued →

Velvet Blue Music Release emotionally Charged, nostalgic Short Film for the brand new song “909”, from Southern California Indie Rock legends, Starflyer 59 (Check it out below). This beautiful short film pulls to the front all the nostalgic longing felt in the song and lots of easter eggs for those of you paying attention. There is so much emotion felt in this this short film that I literally had tears streaming down my cheeks towards the end when the scenes drop into full color and the lead character finds meaning in his current life with his wife (and family).… Continued →

One of the elders of the Christian indie scene, John J. Thompson, has written a new book. Ballad of the Lost Dogs of East Nashville will be the third title from the author, and his first as a novel. Thompson had this to say about the book: This story is about how music brings a diverse community of characters together – after some profound personal and community tragedies – to accomplish something miraculous when they least expect it. It’s based upon people I have known and pieces of stories I have heard, and is set right here in the community I have called home for over 17 years.… Continued →

The guys in No Lost Cause are currently working on new music which will be the follow up to their fantastic ska-punk full length that came out 3 years ago, “Take 2”. That album was the perfect combination of punk rock, ska upbeats, hard hitting drumming, and plenty of “horns” to go around. It was just an all around fun record with plenty to please even the most skeptic of skeptics. So get SKAready for some new No Lost Cause coming at you very soon.… Continued →

Most of us first heard sintax.the.terrific as a member of hip-hop supergroup Deepspace5, a massive rap cypher featuring members of Mars Ill, Labklik, The Pride, and Ill Harmonics. The group’s debut hit stores in 2001 via Uprok Records (the hip-hop sublabel of Tooth & Nail Records). sintax’s first solo album released in 2006 for Illect Recordings, interestingly enough, run by the former head of the short-lived Uprok, Josh Niemyjski. That is, of course, if we don’t count his 2003 indie release. What’s cool about “Moonlighting” is the autobiographical take on being an independent Christian rapper by night, while being a real-life lawyer by day.… Continued →
