I'll try to make a list soon.

Man i could make a list but i'm too lazy to think right now. All i know is i would want stuff like Stryper, Tourniquet, Deliverance, Believer, The Crucified, Mortification and Seventh Angel in there.

How about stuff from the early-to-mid 80's? Stuff like Philadelphia, Saint, Stryken, Emerald, Bloodgood, First Strike, Stryper, etc.?

I'm not too familiar with anything earlier than Stryper. I only know of stuff from like '89 on.

Woo, good topic but it will require some thought on my part... no way I can come up with 40 all time classics right off the top of my head.

Apart from Mortification, Believer, and Living Sacrifice, I didn't get into Christian metal til I became a Christian in late 2000. The only Christian metal I have from the 80's is a best of Stryper CD and a bunch of tapes that I try not to use (until I can afford the equipment to trasfer tape to CD). But I could do a box set from late 90 to now If that's alright (I'll get back to this later after I've had time to think about it).

I'll have to do this later,dont have time at work right now.

Blackieboy's track listing is sweet.

Ult's discs are gonna make most of us look pretty lame...but I made discs like this. Not comprehensive, but I really like them myself.

Disc One is actually pre-Christian hippie rock with spiritual themes. There was actually a lot of that until Christian rock got more specialized. Mostly obscure stuff, but I did work in songs by Bang, Stray, Sir Lord Baltimore, Wishbone Ash, etc. It's titled the "Psychedelic Old Testement".

Then two discs of classic Christian
Disc Two

1. Stryper- Intro/To Hell With the Devil
2. Rez Band- Military Man
3. Xalt- Piercing the Darkness
4. Stryper- The Way
5. Whitecross- He is the Rock
6. Saint- Times Wasting
7. Leviticus- Born Again
8. Narnia- Shadows from the Past
9. Laudemus- I Am
10. Barren Cross- Deadlock
11. Balance of Power- Seven Days to Nevermore
12. Saint- On the Street
13. Trouble- Heaven on My Mind

Disc Three

1. Deliverance- River Disturbance
2. Laudamus- Lost In Vain
3. Masquerade- Judas Kiss
4. Jacobs Dream- Scapegoat
5. Veni Domine- Healer's Face
6. Deliverance- Slay the Wicked
7. Jacobs Dream- The Warning
8. Laudamus- Salvation
9. Wisdom Call- Lost Generation
10. Narnia- Falling from the Throne
11. Jacobs Dream- Never Surrender
12.Deliverance- If We Faint Not
13.Veni Domine- Innner Circle
14. Trog Dawn- Fallen World

Masquerade and Trouble are borderline secular. Also my next disc will include "Open up my Eyes" from the secular band Teaze (1976).

Not a big fan of christian metal but, i do listen to some bands like stryper, ultimatum, trouble, vengeance rising, believer..etc.

My "Extreme" list could use some help. I'm sure bands like The
Showdown, Becoming the Archetype, Zao, Training for Utopia, etc. would
work well on there.
