Christian hardcore can serve as an unconventional form of religious community for young people who reject mainstream Christian congregations.[1]

Fans of Christian hardcore music are not exclusively believers in the Christian religion. Owing to innovation in the hardcore movement such as Extol, Nobody Special, Zao, Living Sacrifice, and the hardcore movement in general, the audience has become less exclusive.[citation needed]
