Yeah, normally I find heavily religious music to be pretty annoying, but somehow AR managed to pull it off and make it sound good. I love that song "Raining Revolution" on their first album.

The only thing that annoys me about AR is that they tried to sue the creators of the show "Arrested Development" for using the same phrase they used to name their band. It annoys me because (a) the term "arrested development" is a common phrase that's been around for ages, it's not like the band invented it, (b) the show had absolutely no connection to anything about the band so it's not like the show was trying to capitalize on the band in any way, and (c) because it made a band I like look like a bunch of jackasses.
