Personally, I think at least some of the blandness is due to marketability. Mainstream Christian music has been owned by the same people as the rest of pop music for a while now, ever since Christian music proved it could be successful back in the 90s or so.

Some of the Christian bands I liked as a kid--Luna Halo and Earthsuit--were dropped from their labels for being too, well...weird. They weren't as marketable because they did their own thing and had their own style, so you couldn't put them in a column in a Christian magazine with the tag line "If you like Nickleback, then you'll like XYZ!" (Yes, they actually do this.)

Honestly I'm a Christian but I stopped listening to most Christian music several years ago because if I wanted to listen to Lady Gaga I'd listen to Lady Gaga, not a Christian pop star deliberately manufactured to sound like her because she's popular. There's still good Christian artists out there, but more and more I'm finding that the ones I like are either independent artists, have been around for long enough that they're more or less untouchable (Newsboys is the only one here that comes to mind for me) or somehow managed to crossover into mainstream music (Luna Halo, Skillet, Mat Kearney, etc)
