In this episode, we dive into each of our backgrounds and how we were introduced to the Christian alt rock world. We wrestle with hard-hitting questions like, how do you know which album to buy based on the cover art alone? If you can go just one minute without sin, can you go two? What was the best Christian album of the era and why was it Adam Again's Homeboys?
Bands discussed:
Eddie Murphy (really)
Tears For Fears
Petra
The Police
U2
Larry Norman
Anthrax
Guns & Roses
Dangerous Toys
Junkyard
Pixies
Steve Taylor
One Bad Pig
Crucified
Breakfast With Amy
The Throes
Adam Again
Daniel Amos
The Choir
God Gave Rock & Roll To You is a podcast exploring the Christian rock subculture of the late 20th century, hosted by Matt Beaton with co-hosts Doug Dickens and Tony Hormillosa.
We are friends who each grew up in a distinct version of this world, and we want to discuss what it was, where it came from, and what it turned into. We’ll be taking many side roads along the way, while listening to some of the best (and worst) music of the era..
