![]() ![]() As far as your definition of "genre" goes, I find it erroneous. ![]() The actual wording of the AMG article is "Christian punk", as they are not disregarding their Christian rock characteristics. The question is whether they participate in the pop punk genre, as well. I, for one, know of no reason why they wouldn't be. Besides, no one here is trying to argue against Relient K being Christian rock. Completely disregarding professional reviews because they don't agree with you is completely illogical. Also, just because a site like AMG classifies them as pop/punk, that doesn't mean that's what they are.- WatchHawk 19:01, 22 April 2006 (UTC) I don't mean this to sound harsh, and I don't want to get into an edit war here, but your argument seems overly POV. Obviously, Relient K's songs are Christianity-themed, so it's completely wrong to call them anything other than what they are, which is Christian rock. And just because the sounds of songs of theirs sound like the style of "pop/punk" and "Christian punk" songs does not mean that's what they are the genre of a song is based on their lyrics and what they mean. The same goes with Relient K doing opening shows for and touring with secular bands. If I went and sat through an evolutionary teaching, that does not make me an evolutionist or change my faith. As Christians, our job is to get out of our little comfort zones and meet/talk/fellowship/share with all peoples of all types. I'm going to sound like a preacher here, but this is the only way to explain it.

As they slowly moved more mainstream, their style has become characteristically pop punk (see article). Check out the styles on the Anatomy of the Tongue in Cheek and Two Lefts reviews.- thegreentrilby 17:11, 17 March 2006 (UTC) For most of their existence they have been primarily Christian Rock, but they have always had an element of punk in thier style (esp. Please stop changing their Genre into something that it isn't unless you link me to an interview/article/discussion in which they clearly state their Genre as anything other than Christian rock.- WatchHawk 07:25, 16 March 2006 (UTC) Well, AMG classifies them as "punk-pop"-or, as it's more commonly called, pop punk. They are Christians, their lyrics are Christianity themed and usually are in direct communication/prayer to God. Shutters' in-depth look at the album as a whole so you get a firm grasp on the over-arching message of the release: stephenshutters.Relient K is not "CCM," "Christian punk," or "pop/punk." Relient K is and always has been Christian rock. On a deeper level however, it is one more piece in the two-album story that Matthew Thiessen and Relient K have been painting through their 2009 "Forget And Not Slow Down" and their 2013 "Collapsible Lung." As this is part of the second part of the story (which is much more dark and dwells on the dysfunctional side of romance), I highly encourage you to check out Stephen C. Whether Thiessen is painting a metaphorical or realistic personal experience is beyond our knowledge. I walked away from every good think that I had.Īs is quite obvious, the song is about a one-night stand and the remorse he feels, not only for doing it, but also for not pursing the girl afterwards and throwing her aside almost as a fallback girl for a "rainy day" that he waited to long on even though he really did like her ("never thought it'd hurt so bad to see you with another.").
