Got any more?
I wish I could think of more but those are my favorites. Wait..I actually just remembered I have quite a few saved at my Myspace account.. I'll have to search through my friends list to find a few. I found some really good unknown bands there! These one mostly aren't metal, but more so rock or what not..and I don't like them any where near as much as what I already listed but they're good-ok.
Neal Morse (Good Progressive, think Dream Theaterish):
I believe Portnoy was drumming for them at some point.
I don't know if anyone would count them as metal but Fireflight is more so Pop Rock I think, I like them even though they're not metal. They have a great attitude, are solid in terms of a positive upfront Christian message, tackling issues like concerning abstinence, really cool I think:
.
I think it was the intro song for some tv show...The Bionic Woman I think?
I wasn't never too much into them but I believe Glass Hammer are Christian, and they're Progressive Rock..but maybe I just didn't hear songs I liked from them. I need to check them out at some point:

They're ok..
Fountain of Tears have some ok songs, but I feel like they have a lot of potential but never really reach it because of the kinda more relaxed less than spectacular song writing. They're more atmospheric, I have to be in a mood to hear them..or have some patience perhaps because they're not usually as fast or poignant as I want them to be.

They barely have anything posted online that you can hear but this one is from their first album, which is based on/is Edgar Allen Poe's the Raven. You get more of a sense of their musicianship from it because it's a spoken song/poetry, it has no singing, kinda weird:
