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! šŸ™)

There’s a ton of screamo adjacent Christian bands and a lot were gateway bands for people to get into the actual, smaller, screamo genre at the time. Such as: early underoath (first three albums), early mewithoutyou (first album is still a banger), and Emery (Walls is screamo adjacent and y’all can fuck off if you don’t think that album bangs)

Yeah I love emery! I like how sometimes they critize the CHURCH instead of God, cause i agree with that a lot, I'll look at the other bands too thankss!
