Zao was kinda Christian at some point I think? I like them

Yep. Especially Becoming the Archetype (first 4 albums), all of Death Therapy, and a lot of Project 86 (specifically their last double album Omni was getting very heavy for them).

Destroy the Runner, specifically like their album Saints.

There was a band called EastWest that had an album Hope in Anguish. Not sure I'd call it metal, and they were not accomplished high production, but it was still pretty good.

In spite of my issues with religion and my childhood, I still listen to most of those bands many many years later cause the music is just excellent, especially the first 3 I mentioned.

Demon Hunters still going and still good.

I don't particularly care if a band is Christian if the music is good. Firstly, a sizable chunk of the lyrics of bands I listen to are fictional or based on fiction; why be upset about one mythology and not any others? Secondly, I enjoy a lot of baroque music; good luck getting away from Christianity centered music there.

To be honest have not heard of most of those. But I do listen to 'Fit for a King' , 'Convictions' and 'Confessions of a Traitor'. I will take a look at the ones you mentioned

I used to, really enjoyed Demon Hunter, Seventh Avenue and a few other, but at some point I got bored of it and don't listen to it anymore unless it appears in my shuffle.

Fathomage makes pretty good stuff.

I have for years. All the bands you listed, As I Lay Dying (their albums all the way up to An Ocean Between. I listened to then after that too, but couldn't really call then Christian metal at that point), In the Midst of Lions, O Sleeper, and August Burns Red (not strictly a Christian metal band, but at least "Alternative").
