Nah. There are a lot of bad Christian rock/metal bands, but there are quite a few good ones too.

To name some:

Skillet is an obvious one (not my thing anymore, especially everything after Awake, but can't call them bad)
Silent Planet
August Burns Red
Underoath (until they weren't)
Fit For A King
Wolves At The Gate (though their lyrics can be too much on the nose)
Flyleaf (when Lacey Sturm was still on board)
Love & Death
Children 18:3

How did you literally forget Reliant K?

Personally I still have a soft spot for Newsboys. Mostly just Shine, and Take Me To Your Leader. Those two still feel good.

Initially I kinda liked Audio Adrenaline, but looking back with what we all know now about the impact of a car based society on the world, I gotta admit, "Chevette" didn't have an ounce of gospel in it, and was a much worse take on crappy cars that probably leaked toxic trash everywhere they went than Adam Sandler's "Ode to my Car".

Underoath (well, they used to be)

used to be good or used to be christian?

I'm just going to tack a few more on here so I can find some of yours later, but I'd like to add:

Nine Lashes, which are probably more overt than some

Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, for the entirety of Don't You Fake It, and a few other songs

Red

Demon Hunter

Switchfoot, don't @ me Dare You To Move is a banger

Disciple

Pillar

Disciple is probably more overt than Nine Lashes though, no?

DH I've gotten uncomfortable with since Exile.
