1. They're a Christian band
2. They don't actually suck
3. They're quite prolific, starting in the early 90's as lo-fi alternative rock, progessing to experimental hip-hop, and now an avant mixture of both.
4. They use verbatim Bible quotations for a lot of their lyrics. As in, their latest album's lyrics were Psalms 1-23. Today I downloaded their renditions of Exodus 1-16 off their blog, and they've also covered Genesis, some more of Psalms, and parts of Proverbs.
5. It's not a gimmick. The main guy does this cause he thinks that Jesus is cool, and Scripture is cool, and worship is cool, so he's setting it to music. And he's teaching his kids to worship through music. He has videos of it. It's pretty awesome.
6. I wish my parents let us form a family band and play worship songs in our basement.
