    In the upcoming episode of The Rumors Are True podcast, Jeff Bellew, a key figure in the Christian punk and hardcore music scenes, will be the featured guest. Known primarily for his work as a guitarist with legendary bands like The Crucified and Stavesacre, Bellew has made a significant impact on both underground music and alternative faith-based movements. Bellew's history is deeply rooted in the early hardcore punk scene of the 1980s. The Crucified, one of the pioneering Christian punk bands, challenged the status quo by blending aggressive, fast-paced music with messages of faith, rebellion, and introspection. Bellew joined the band after their early releases and contributed to their breakthrough album The Pillars of Humanity (1991), which gained both critical and cult status for its raw energy and message. After The Crucified disbanded, Bellew joined Stavesacre, a post-hardcore band that further pushed the boundaries of Christian rock. Known for a heavier, more melodic sound, Stavesacre gained a loyal following in the 90s and early 2000s with their introspective lyrics and atmospheric music. During his appearance on The Rumors Are True, Bellew will likely explore his musical journey—how he moved from the rawness of The Crucified to the more complex sounds of Stavesacre. He may also discuss how faith influenced his career, what it was like to be part of the Christian punk scene, and share stories from decades of performing, writing, and being part of groundbreaking bands. Expect a blend of personal reflections, behind-the-scenes moments, and insights into the lasting legacy of his work.
