The following is a list of Christian hardcore bands, organized alphabetically.
Christian hardcore is a subgenre of hardcore punk primarily distinguished by its lyrical focus on Christian themes and values, although former Burden of a Day guitarist Bryan Honhart has suggested that the genre also possesses sonic distinctions. Bands such as The Crucified, Focused, Focal Point, Zao and No Innocent Victim are considered progenitors of the movement. In recent years, Demon Hunter and The Chariot have gained considerable popularity among fans of the genre, while metalcore bands such as Underoath, As I Lay Dying, and Norma Jean have served as mainstream representatives of the genre.
This list consists of Christian bands that play hardcore punk or any hardcore punk subgenres.
