Prosper is terrible and isn't even close to being quality music like RATM.  No more recommending them, please.

OK, sure Prosper is terrible, but what about CR33 and E.SO

any sugestion for dream theater?

Bands like Dream Theater:   

Menahem (angels and shadows)
Darkwater (Calling The Earth to Witness)
Abstract Shadows(Symphony Of Hakel)
Oficina G3 (Depois da guerra or Al?m do que os olhos podem ver)
Souljourners (Mind Control)
Suspyre

A good alternative for A Day To Remember is Close your eyes. They are also a good alternative for comeback kid's non-christian stuff.

Suspyre
 

I think that abstract shadows comes the closest to dream theater in this list.   suspyre is great, but much faster then DT

I'm looking for a Christian female artist with the robust style of Bette Midler. Wind benieth my wings, has an extended vocal range that is similar to my own and I enjoy her raspy throaty tones. Thanks. D

I'm not too sure about providing a Alternative to Blink 182; They really had a style all their own, and Relient K (Let alone any band) doesnt really match that style of theirs. Just a thought.

Early EleventySeven

[lit]

How about Chaotic Dischord - early Ninety Pound Wuss & Vice Squad - Headnoise for punk? 

nice one northernwolf.

thanks sir king_of_fools admin. this really helps especially the people who ask me about Christian music.

i hope you update this from the latest artists or bands 'coz most of the bands aren't that new anymore.
thanks much!

If you're looking for some Blink 182 Christian Alternativen try:
Olivia The Band
The First album of FM Static - "What are you waiting for ?"
Last Kid Picked

good luck !!

Anyone got more on Eminem? I love his flow and rythm, haven't found anyone like him.
