  • Christian rock is a genre of rock music with lyrics that pertain to Christian scripture, teachings, and ways of life.
  • Christian rock is a form of rock music played by bands where the musicians are openly Christian. The extent to which their lyrics are explicitly Christian varies between bands. In the 1970s, Larry Norman was a popular Christian rock musician who challenged a view held by some conservative Christians (predominantly fundamentalists) that rock music was anti-Christian. One of his songs, "Why Should the Devil Have All the Good Music?", summarized his attitude and his quest to pioneer Christian rock music.
  • Christian rock is a form of rock music played by bands whose members are Christians and who often focus the lyrics on matters concerned with the concept of the Christian faith. The extent to which their lyrics are explicitly Christian varies between bands. Much Christian rock has ties to the contemporary Christian music (CCM) scene, while other bands are independent. The Christian rock genre is most popular in the United States, although some Christian bands have worldwide popularity. Related subgenres of Christian music include Christian alternative rock, Christian metal, contemporary Christian music, Christian punk, and Christian hardcore.
  • Christian rock music, often shortened/combined to Cock music, is a genre of music that originated in 2007 when Jesus died on the cross because he was too cool for hisself. No really, though, some of the lyrics for Christian-Hardcore Metal can go like: "ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! Love God! BLLERHEHLHLEHH!" and then they puke all over the microphone and have to go to Walmart and buy a new one.

  • I'm an artist who's a Christian, because I don't write music to be evangelical. Now, if that happens, it happens.
