I forgot to include Sufjan Stevens in my ranking. He's below classic hymns but above Christian hardcore.

The difference is, this is what the second song's band sounds like (different song because that one isn't on YouTube): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wt4Z-3rwgQ0

...yes...but...you made this thread about the lyrics.

Parts of that remind me a little of warmed-over Augustine.

I can't believe I'm asking you this, but what are your thoughts on Ambrose?

Good sentiment, some cleverness in the lyrics, not appropriate for liturgical use.

By the way, the reason I asked you about Ambrose is that in his disputes with the Emperor Theodosius he was one of the first figures in recorded history to use what we'd today recognize as nonviolent civil disobedience tactics, and thus could be argued to have had proto-SJW tendencies (if you really wanted to make that argument. Which you shouldn't).

'Sing a New Church' sounds almost Unitarian.

It's a rather diverse genre with many subgenres and a diverse arrangement of influences, but fundamentally it's an offshoot of early punk music, early hardcore punk is just punk made faster and louder. It then kind of developed and evolved in all sorts of different directions. The name is actually an anachronistic misnomer, a lot of hardcore music isn't even all that "hard", (for example take my current namesake or this from one of the biggest hardcore bands out today.

This is the most succinct, accessible, and appealing definition of hardcore I've ever seen you give. Well done. I'm not being sarcastic.
