If your favorite band 80's Metal Band is not listed at left, but would like to find a Christian alternative, contact us.

Another resource is http://www.heavensmetal.com. They have an exhausitve list of all (not just 80's) Christian Metal. However, the categories help you find the 80's Metal. Then you can search ebay or go to the band/s homepage. Also, wikipedia's' List_of_Christian_metal_bands lists all Christian metal bands and genre. On either of these sites, if you see the same genres as above, it is probably 80's Christian metal. Also, you can read reviews of Christian Metal , or view the 80's section of Chronological History of Christian Metal. Just to be sure, it s best to search youtube for the band and album name first though, if you want to keep it 80's. If you want to go beyond the 80's sound, you can broaden your horizons to all Christian Metal.

This is an open-source chart, meaning that it is a beginning, and is intended to be a collaborative effort accross Metaleros. In this first draft, the first column reminds me of the 2nd column -and only in the 80's and early 90's. Sure, bands change over time. If you would like to edit this chart, send me your edited copy.

Reviews

Attention Metaleros! Now is the time to send in your CD's if you want them reviewed on 80's Christian Metal.com. You can be one of the first reviews up on the new reviews page. Contact us to send us the Albums that you want us to review. Tell us what albums you want to send first. It is ok if it is new, it just needs to be 80's Christian Metal!

We also plan to have contests and awards. Let us know what you think the criteria for judging an 80's Christian Metal should be. Some of the more interesting criteria for album suggested so far are "machismo" and "shred quotient". Shred quotient is a calculated value, derived from multiplying the number of guitar solos by the length of the guitar solos, and then dividing by the number of songs, divided by average length of each song. This is the secret science of 80's Christian Metalology. 80's Christian Metalologist Dr. Robert Von Boanerges has created an 80's Christian Metal Lyric Generator, to open the wonder of writing 80's Christian Metal lyrics to all. Give it a try! You'll be smiling like the guy in the fur cape (member of Saint) in the photo at left.
