I have had many discussions with people that are Christians, or many Christians that are in a band, but do not consider their band a Christian band.  My discussions have left we me with one conclusion, that bands that have Christian members can be just as Christian or even more Christian than a band that labels themselves such.  Killing Years is an example of a fantastic hardcore band that does not label itself as Christian, however, getting to know the band members and how devoted they are to Christ and living a Christian lifestyle (to the best of their abilities), their faith comes through in their music, however, I must warn you, that their lyrics look at the darker side of trials and tribulations, and their is the occasional curse, which could be a stumbling block for some.

Killing Years is an awesome example of 90′s influenced hardcore, taking the lead from bands like Strongarm, Shai Hulud, and Six Feet Deep.  Killing Years does a fantastic job taking the influence from this time period of hardcore music and putting their own blood, sweat, and tears into it.  So….read on, the band has some great things to say about not labeling themselves a Christian band, what they think of the Christian scene, and where you can hear them.
