Christian punk is a surprisingly successful musical subculture and
a fascinating expression of American evangelicalism. Situating
Christian punk within the modern history of Christianity and the
rapidly changing culture of spirituality and secularity, this book
illustrates how Christian punk continues punk's autonomous and
oppositional creative practices, but from within a typically
traditional evangelical morality. Analyzing straight edge Christian
abstinence and punk-friendly churches, this book also focuses on
gender performance within a subculture dominated by young men in a
time of contested gender roles and ideologies. Critically-minded
and rich in ethnographic data and insider perspectives, Christian
Punk will engage scholars of contemporary evangelicalism, religion
and popular music, and punk and all its related subcultures.
