There are actually some VERY amazing Christian bands out there. Although some are quite bland.. And they give the genre a bad name.

Name some.
Here are a few, along with a favourite track.
MUTEMATH (Break the Same), Day of Fire (Lately), Paper Tongues (Rich and Poor), RED (Death of Me), Thousand Foot Krutch (Fire it Up, Already Home)

Bonus:
Tell me the difference between, "a Christian band" and "a band of Christians"
Christian bands are all about spreading the gospel, while a band of Christians are more about music (While they usually still do make a few songs concerning God).

Quote:
most musicians are probably either atheistic or agnostic, because people who are truly into organized religion will lyrically be influenced by their religion, but if that person isn't than they're probably just not that religious, most people i know who call themselves Christians are more in it for the image.
By "lyrically influenced", you mean like... They won't swear, and generally won't put out quite as many depressing songs? Then yes.
