    Abstract

    This expansive introductory chapter offers a history of Christian punk, and its parent genres of secular punk and contemporary Christian music. The chapter critically engages with existing studies of punk, Christian music, and evangelical attitudes towards popular culture. The chapter also analyzes the emergence of a distinct discipline of punk studies, and “punkademic” scholars seeking to bring the do-it-yourself values of punk to academia. Keywords: Christianity; Contemporary Christian music; Cultural studies: Popular music; Punk
