Relient K is well-known popular punk Christian Band. They have been a band for over 6 years, and have produced 6 albums. Their latest is MMHMM, in which the band says is their all time favorite. The band collected all the cheesy phrases and puns that they heard over time, and put them into their songs. They say that although they have recieved criticism for not including the word Jesus in their songs, they are still a Christian group. They say "We’re not trying to hide anything with the songs on this record, just to get what we feel out there, We’ve also found it to be the hardest thing in the world to say ‘Jesus’ in a song and not be cheesy, so we definitely have our own way of singing about spirituality. But in the end that’s who we are and what we believe in. We hope between that and the music, it connects with someone out there.” (courtesy of RelientK.com) I was actually was going to go to a concert by them tomorrow night, but plans fell through. I did see them in concert once, and it was so much fun! I really like the funny lyrics that are present in their songs.
