Description
In this first episode, we tackle the important questions like; Is backwards masking real? Do Catholics speak in tongues? Was Keith Green too preachy? Was it more punk rock to be in a Christian band than to be a punk? Is The Choir the Sex Pistols of Christian rock? Bands discussed: LSU Altar Boys U2 The Sundays The Choir Adam Again Daniel Amos Keith Green Steve Taylor Twisted Sister Radiohead Run DMC The Pixies Sunny Day Real Estate 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.. Please subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.
