They are not Christian-based themselves, but a select few of their songs have a Christian belief basis in them. But no...being an avid Nickelback listener myself, I can safely tell you they are NOT Christian-based.

I dont really know... Like The reason they changed their name from Burn the Priest is because their guitarist went Christian... But if you listen to the lyrics you might question that they are all Chrisian... In my mind I think that if the band lets the guitarist change the name to a Cristian name, That the rest of the band is cool with Christ... I'm in a band and they won't let me change them name unless their cool with it. So I'd say that they are probably Christians who like to get wild...

Here is what the band says:\n\nQuick aside: yes, the band has achieved a lot of their success on the Christian rock charts. Unlike a lot of mainstream groups who hide their spirituality, however, TFK remain nonchalant about it. "From a spiritual point of view, we're all Christian guys," says McNevan. "We would never want to hide that fact, but musically, we just want to play. We've been associated with gospel, with hip-hop/rock, with a lot of things. We don't preach. I mean, "Rawkfist" certainly proved that! I just write songs from my point of view, and we just want to spread hope and positivity."

Heartagrams- probably not good.\nWear black- sure, why not.\nRead dark poetry- depends on the content, topic, etc;\nListen to Death Metal- not good, but only because of the lyrics. They do have Christian metal.\nSpiked Jewelry- sure, spikes are spiffy!\nCrucifix as a necklace- sure, why not?\n\nThe Bible says: "All is permissible for me, but not all is helpful. All is permissible for me, but not all builds up. All is permissible for me, but I will not be brought under the power of anything." ~1 Corinthians 6:12, 10:23\n\nWhatever you do, do it in Jesus' name and for the glory of God. How you dress doesn't matter so much. But you have to be careful about what you are representing, and what you put in your head. There is nothing wrong with being a "Christian Goth", so long as you're a Christian first, and a Goth second. That goes for anything and everything else too.\n\nHope this helps, and God bless you!

Err... Christian Band?  I have to say my favorite is Phillips Craig and Dean, an "older" Contemp Christian Band.  Personally I have a personal thing against Christian Rock or Christian Rap.  I just dont really see it as worship when you have a guy on stage head banging, covered in long hair and tatoos, holding up the evil fingers and singing "Oh how I love Jesus".  You go to a "Soulstock" and all the kids there (who are usually between 12-16) bouncing around, screaming and shouting, just as high and drunk as they would be at the Metallica concert!  What levels dare we stoop to just to be accepted?!  \nBut what really just grind my gears is how the Christian music scene can put out music they claim as Christian when it really has nothing at all to do with God, Christ or his message.  One particular song I remember inparticular was a song with the lyrics "You are a Godsend" over and over and OVER AGAIN, it was a REALLY cruddy song, talking about an unmarried guy having "relations" with his girl.  I mean I REALLY dont have no SUPER conventions about that particularly but C'MON!!  I mean I go into a Christian Music store and there are "christian" CD's by big name Rap, Rock and Country artists?  It might not be the heavy stuff you'll find in the Metal section, but its still really not any good.  I say be hot or cold, bad or good, heavy or light, dont pussy around somewhere in the middle.

I personally Demon Hunter.  Their lyrics are kinda like poetry.  You kinda have to think about some of the lyrics to get the message, but don't worry they are Christian.\nhttp://www.christianrocklyrics.com/demonhunter.php

Hoobastank is entirely composed of white Christian males. However, it cannot be classifies as a Christian genre band. It is a Modern Rock/Alternative band.

I've noticed this too.  In fact it's a joke in our house.  We go to the stores to try to find "Christian products" knowing that they are there.  Even the employees have a hard time telling you where they are.  \n\nFYE has a variety of music, but when it comes to "Christian" CD's their selection is stuff from 20 years ago.  \n\nI went to a music store in Toledo, and they were playing music on the intercom.  When I asked what they were playing, the man said "IONA".  It was a Christian band from the UK!  He said he liked their Celtic style.  He told me that alot of people asked who the band was, and asked to buy the CD, because they like it too, not even knowing the band was Christian.\n\nSo to answer your question, it's a marketing strategy.  They promote who they want to promote.  Very few have the guts to put out a Christian product and promote it.

I am a Christian. I like good music, so that kind of leaves out country and rap.\n\nI have had several debates on music with fellow Christians that feel any music that is not praise music is a sin. However what I find funny is they are willing to watch secular tv. (including American Idol, go figure) If you feel convicted by a song don't listen to it. For example while I like both John Lennon's "Imagine" and the Stones "Sympathy for the Devil" I have felt convicted on both of them, so I don't.

Obviously they are either not good Christians or they do not agree that the music they are listening to is Satanic.\n\nI can not say which it is because I do not know which bands or musicians you are talking about, but the line is different for many people.

No they are not brothers Chad of Nickelback helped get Theory of a Deadman started with 604 records and Roadrunner records.  Chad and the bassist Mike also of Nickelback are brothers.

Yes, Hawk Nelson is a Christian group. A lot of their songs from their first album, "Letters to The President" have God or Jesus in them. Not so much on their second album ("Smile, It's The End of The World), but I've heard them talk... they're definitely Christian. They don't like it when people don't think they are because of the way they dress or because they're guys with piercings.
