Does anyone know wher i could fing a chart or list of music comparisons
from christian music to secular? or even, does anyone know a christian band
that might sound like nine inch nails. I have a friend who likes that group
or at least that type of music, so i want to find him a band that he will
like but have a message behind it....

Eh?! Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Klank death metal or
grindcore? That's -hardly- NINlike.

Yes, if you visit the Cross Rhythms Music homepage, there is a link at
the bottom of the first page to "Youth Wake Home Page" They are a
radio show in Dallas and they have a chart like that on their page.
Check it out!

Yeah you may wanna check out Mortal's first 2 albums Lusis and Fathom,
Argyle Park, Circle Of Dust, Aleixa (leans toward the techno side and
has female vocals but it rocks), Klank (dunno if this one is out yet
tho) and of course Chatterbox.

Alot of Christian bookstores have a conversion chart that lists
mainstream artists and the Xian artists that there fans may like

Funny one......

I have only heard ONE Christian band that sounds VERY close to Nine
Inch Nails (without the murdderous, sexual, abusing lyrics like NIN)
and they are called "Circle of Dust" and their latest album is
"Brainchild" (I believe).

Circle of Dust, aka Brainchild. You'll probably have to order it ( I
did ).

Argyle Park. I don't have the alblum, but I've heard some of their
stuff from various tribute alblums.

Aleixa.

Deitiphobia. They just disbanded. =( The plus side is, they are going
to re-release their earlier alblums.

Under Midnight. They have two alblums out - self titled, and "Void".
I think they disbanded after that, can't find anything on them at all
now.

Mortal. These guys are a techno/industrial/trance mix kinda thing.
The only album I would say to stay away from is "wake", it's a rather
dry pure alternative alblum. They can sound like NIN at times, but don't
always.

Also, try this W3 page: http://is.dal.ca/~carson/xii.html

Well, I'm not a big NIN fan, but either "Fathom" by Mortal or any thing
by Circle of Dust would be close.

Dust.

Of course you're joking. If you'd been serious, you would've said:

Carman.

Try Argyle Park or Circle of Dust. my non-Christian industrial/techno fan
friend swears by them, even though he knows they'er xian groups. "Pound for
pound, they're way better than Trent," he's said. YMMV.

I think Mortal's first album sounds like Skinny Puppy. Circle of Dust sounds
more like Nine Inch Nails.

actually, with all these jokes about Carman here, the scary thing is...

He just might "sound like Nine Inch Nails" on *one song* on his next
album. *shudder*

The closest I've seen is a Florida band called Skindot. However, don't
expect a very evangelical album here - they're just Christians doing the
kind of music they want to do.

If you're looking for general industrial bands that have a better message,
try:
Circle of Dust
Argyle Park (angry album - some would argue that it's not a positive
message at all)
Mortal
Deitiphobia
Under Midnight
Chatterbox
globalWAVEsystem

COD sounds a lot *less* like NIN than Mortal does. COD is a more like
a metal band.

Um.....No. IMO, The previous statement is not true. Mortal wishes
that _Lusis_ was even close to the worst crap that NIN has done.

Yeah, their message is better, but their sonics suck.
