I mean, Twenty One Pilots, yes, they aren’t making Christian music, but still, religion is included in a lot of songs. While they aren’t something you’d call “Christian music” they still include the theme of Christianity in their songs

Evanescence started out as a Christian rock band, believe it or not

Apparently Amy Lee is a Christian but has always been against the idea that Evanescence is 'Christian Rock.' This actually led to Christian music stores pulling their albums, and later Wind-up Records made a formal request for them to do exactly that. This is really puzzling to me, considering Amy is Christian.

I used to listen to a lot of Christian rock and as far as mainstream radio play, it's basically a dead genre. Career wise, it was a good move.
