Im not sure if ur kidding?

I love Day Of Fire and Maylene
but top 10 all ime probably not their in my top 10 personally

and Saint and Seventh Angel yes they would be

but Slayer is a joke right?

1. Deliverance
2. Vengeance Rising
3. Tourniquet
4. Ultimatum
5. Rob Rock
6. Whitecross
7. Believer
8. Extol
9. Mortification

Aside from Stryper who's far and away my favorite band
Here is my top 10

1 Barren Cross
2 Sacred Warrior
3 Whitecross
4 Deliverance
5 Tourniquet
6 Bride
7 Holy Soldier
8 Rob Rock
9 Believer
10 Vengeance Rising

And hated to leave them off: Living Sacrifice

Top 5:
Theocracy
Veni Domine
HB
Stryper
Lightmare

Adding 5 more would be too hard, as there would be more than 5 that are too close to call.  But the top 5 are pretty clear.

For me, in no particular order:

80's Petra, Savior Machine, Stryper, BloodGood, Deliverance, Saint, 80's Creed (German band), Barren Cross, Sacred Warrior, and Narnia.

Demon Hunter
Barren Cross
Holy Soldier
Saint
Stryper
Bloodgood
Deliverance
Rob Rock
Sacred Warrior
Whitecross

DivineFire are very good too.  Sadly, many people do not know about them.

6. Divinefire
7. Affector
8. Whisper From Heaven
9. Tourniquet
10. Indwelling

Thanks Devon!

Annihilator was by far my favourite band before I was a Christian.  I still think Jeff Waters is the best riff writer in metal.  When I stopped listening to them (after I felt like God wanted me to not listen to secular metal), Temple of Blood was the only Christian band that I've ever heard that comes close to them.  So I really appreciate the music you are creating.

1) Theocracy

2) Old Tourniquet ( first 4 )

.....after that...

3) The Crucified

4) The Unashamed

5) Old Bloodgood

6) Old Barren Cross

7) Old Saint

Old Bride

9) Pantorkrator

10) Crimson Moonlight

......3-10 is very subject to change.

Top 5:
1. Stryper
2. Theocracy
3. Petra
4. Liberty N Justice
5. Whitecross

My ten favorite Christian bands in alphabetical order:

In the other thread you stated I said Petra was metal due to my list here...

Again, reading a person's entire post before commenting usually solves a lot of problems.
If you read my whole post, you would have seen my comment "I know a couple of them aren't "metal"...but oh well" 

Apparently this was something you didn't do until you made the other thread.

So, I never said Petra was metal.

Here's the great thing though...it's my list. I can put whoever I want on it. Isn't that amazing
