Unashamed (band)

Summary

Unashamed was a Christian hardcore punk band that became one of the founding bands in the Spirit-Filled HardCore movement. Their bold faith-based lyrics center around ideas directly lifted from the Bible and conservative morality. They released two albums on Tooth & Nail Records. After signing with Tooth & Nail, the band toured until their "final" show at Cornerstone Festival in 1998.[citation needed] In 2009, the band announced that they were reforming with many of their original line-up, and would begin touring hard into 2010.[1]
