Or at least did it 20 years ago?

The reason I ask is because Long Island had a bunch of Christian (or Christian-adjacent like Skycamefalling) hardcore bands around the turn of the century, but it seems like an odd place demographically for that...Christian hardcore band members usually (at least at that time) meant evangelical but not really fundamentalist or conservative/really politically involved. At least no Catholics or northeastern WASP types, you could find a few mainline types in such bands (like here there was Lutherans) but not of flavor you'd associate with Long Island.

I don't knoe but it's Long Island, therefore, suburbs of NYC. So, its easier for those bands to become famous in a niche but federal-wide scene.

Long Island probably doesn't have that many evangelicals, but it's also like 3 and half congressional districts in population. You'd expect it to have enough to sustain a few Christian hardcore bands.
