Washington Philips and his heavily modified frankenzither that he may or may not have called a Manzarene:
Blind Willie Johnson:
Your argument is invalid.
Really, by the standards of Christian worship music, Gospel music is actually pretty listenable. I could actually put some other artists here, like Mahalia Jackson or the Blind Boys of Alabama or Aretha Franklin's forays into Gospel Music, or other artists like Sixpence none the Richer (a CCM group which wound up making it big with some vaguely sapphic music) and Nick Cave (who, at least in his heyday, was a devout Christian who just happened to sing some brutal songs), or Johnny Cash's or Elvis' requisite gospel tracks or The Pixies, who aren't really religious, but are obsessed with the more fucked up stuff in the Old Testament, but we have a 3-video per post limit.
Blind Willie Johnson was classic! There's a lot of good music in Gospel
Johnny Cash's Belshazzar. I like Luther Perkins' Esquire in this one
