THE [[Christian Rock]] band. Not technically the first, but the first to have a major impact on the culture. Formed in 1972 by Bob Hartman (who had himself just become a Christian at the time) and some friends of his from college, but best known for their work during [[The Eighties]]. Appropriately enough, their name is simply Greek for "rock".
 
Line 32:
* ''Back to the Rock'' (2010, as Classic Petra)
 
{{tropelistcreatortropes}}
* [[Album Title Drop]]: ''On Fire'' (shouted in the song "Hit You Where You Live"), ''Unseen Power'' (a short spoken track at the end), and ''Wake-Up Call'' (a line from "Sleeping Giant")
* [[As the Good Book Says...]]: Nearly every song contains some paraphrase of a Bible passage. And in case anyone don't get the reference, the reference was always printed above the lyrics in the liner notes. In one instance, lack of familiarity with [http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Romans+6:6&version=KJV Romans 6:6 in the King James Version] made it impossible to understand that the song is [[I Thought It Meant|not about a man killing his father]]. Never ones to shy away from controversy, these guys.
