"When standing before God, he won't care about your sweet Prada scarf or Gucci shoes or whatever. It's a Christian reasoning for the name, we didn't name it to attempt at being fashionable or whatever." (Mike Hranica) |

- Christian Rock: Nowhere near as wholesome as one might think though.
- Large Ham: Mike seems to enjoy being one, espcially when he guest spotted on A Day To Remember's I'm Made Of Wax Larry music video.
- Lyrical Dissonance: In their more Christian-themed songs, reading the lyrics and listening to the hard music style can be slightly jarring.
- Metal Scream: As per Metalcore fashion, Mike employs this alot.
- One of Us: They're fans of The Office and the Zombie EP was based off of several zombie inspired works, especially The Zombie Survival Guide.
- Soprano and Gravel: Jeremy (soprano) Mike (gravel).
- Surprisingly Gentle Song: Louder Than Thunder, sung entirely by Jeremy.
- Zombie Apocalypse: The Zombie EP, naturally. The songs exercise every trope found in the genre.
