Shamecore Records: The Epilogue

Where did this scene lead for the listeners and the musicians that invested their hearts into it?

We had two great conversations with people who have been interviewing numerous people within the scene, and how this scene impacted people (musicians and listeners) theologically and politically.

We talked with Mason Mennenga - host of the A People’s Theology podcast and The Black Shee Podcast.

I also talked with Professor Joel Harrison is Associate Professor of Religion at Northern Virginia Community College in Manassas, VA. He’s working on a book right now on Evangelical Political Identity and Underground Christian Punk, He looks at how leftist punk aesthetics were fully embraced in some circles and, thus, pushed evangelicalism in a progressive direction - like what Mason was sauing - and in others, "punk" was repurposed for more conservative political ends.

Here's the article about Mars Hill and Tooth & Nail bands.
