I'm changing a phrase in the article: "[...]though they were especially active in the Christian metal genre some acts (such as Circle of Dust) were exclusively sold in general markets". Exclusively? Circle of Dust, at the very least, was sold in Christian music stores and through Christian music catalogs by the time I became a fan in 1999, which leads me to believe that this sentence is either false or that these artists weren't distributed directly to Christian establishments until they had their repertoires bought by other labels after R.E.X. went under. Either way, can we look into this more? –BrentonRyan 10 April 2009 —Preceding undated comment added 18:05, 10 April 2009 (UTC).[reply]

Check for yourself -- Billboard states that they are exclusively carried in mainstream markets, at least in 1995. To be clear, it's in the 4th column on page 40, under the Plankeye photo. "R.E.X.'s approach can be seen in the growing success of the industrial-rock ensemble Circle of Dust, which, while Christian in content, is marketed exclusively to the mainstream."
