Thrice's Riley Breckenridge on Belief

(Filed under: Spirituality)

"We're definitely not a Christian band. We've never been into being preachy, never been into spreading any kind of word. It just came from [lead singer Dustin Kensrue] singing about issues that he was having--a lot of those were faith-based. Some people are turned off by that. Then there are a lot of people who are like, not even from a Christian standpoint, [and they say,] 'Dustin's lyrics have helped me start exploring why I'm here, what I'm doing here, justifying my existence and stuff.' I think that's a good thing. I'm not a Christian, and I'm not exactly sure what I believe in. But I do believe in looking for answers and being open to a lot of different things."

I used to think they were a Christian band and I'd tell people that... "I'm not a Christian but my favorite band is a Christian one"... now I feel kind of guilty somehow.

Oh well
