As with any format, some of it is really good, and some is crap. MXPX is definitely at the forefront of the Christian punk industry, and deservedly so, but there are other bands that are top-notch as well. The audience that likes this music (mostly kids, but others as well - I'm 26) will continue to like this style of music. Whether or not a band preaches from the stage is up to them, but the music should come FIRST when you're doing a CONCERT. The lifestyle of a band can open one's mind to Christianity, but a relationship(s) with Christians is what is most important. All music carries a message. What's yours?
