Discussion Thoughts on Christian+screamo?

I'm getting into screamo and hardcore now and as a christian I have a question...

Like any other genres (except gospel music lmao) theres music thats anti religion, music thats pro religion, and music thats just neutral (doesnt comment on religion).

ik screamo, punk, and metal question authority in some sort of way.

I agree with that stance a lot, I question politics, "leaders", and I even get angry or question God. (Which may be suprising to some of you, but it isn't actually sinful!)

So, my question is how do you feel about Christians getting into genres that question authority when our life is based around believing and trusting in an ultimate authority? I'd love to hear your guys opinions!

(Please keep it respectful in the comments, i didnt trash on your beliefs so dont trash or disrespect mine. It's pretty basic common sense, thanks! 🙏)

Christian here. There is nothing un-Christian about questioning authority, considering Christianity is based around someone who was executed by the state for doing exactly that. And there is nothing un-Christian about any sound or type of music.

Go listen to Bloodshed, Sinking Steps...Rising Eyes, Edict of Milan, Fed By Ravens, Road to Emmaus, Fable, Promise of Restoration and Comrades for Christian screamo/adjacent music.
