* BadassBaritone: Ryan's clean vocals can enter this territory. His speaking voice less so.

* Christian Alvestam (ex-Music/ScarSymmetry) - harsh and clean vocals on "Just Breathe" (''The World Is a Thorn'')

* IconicLogo: See opening paragraphs above.

* NotChristianRock: Subverted. Most fans don't know they're Christian (see ChristianRock above) until they look it up. This is justified, as they rode the fence for their first couple releases and only became labeled a Christian metal band after they became more open about their faith, yet the content of their lyrics and music did not change following this revelation. It also helps that Ryan often gives official explanations for their songs' meanings, many of which aren't inspired by anything religious in the first place.

* Richie Faulkner (Music/JudasPriest) - guitar on a yet to be named track (''Exile'')

* SomethingCompletelyDifferent: "Fading Away" sounds like something Music/AvengedSevenfold would sing.
** ''True Defiance'' features "Means to an End", an acoustic instrumental song.
*** "What is Left" from the deluxe edition of the same album wouldn't sound out of place on a Music/ThreeDaysGrace album.

* BaldOfAwesome: Ryan, who has sported a hairless head since the band's debut (see below).

* MohsScaleOfRockAndMetalHardness: Usually an 8, sometimes crossing into the range of 9. Their softer songs, however, drop down to around a 6.

* YoungerThanTheyLook: Ryan looked much older than he was for a good chunk of their career. He was only 23 when their debut album was released, but looked to be at least ten years older due to being completely bald and sporting a huge beard. This was exemplified when he became noticeably overweight around the ''World Is a Thorn'' through ''Extremist'' era. However, he lost a significant amount of weight circa ''Outlive'', becoming the fittest he'd ever been, and now in his 40s, he actually looks his age if not younger thanks to this.

*** "The World Is a Thorn" from ''The World Is a Thorn''.

* DarkerAndEdgier: With the exception of their debut and ''Peace'', they have one or two songs without any clean vocals per album:
** "Beheaded" from ''Summer of Darkness''.
** "Snap Your Fingers, Snap Your Neck" (Prong cover) from ''The Triptych''.
** "Storm the Gates of Hell" from ''Storm the Gates of Hell''.
** "The World Is a Thorn" from ''The World Is a Thorn''.
** "Crucifix" from ''True Defiance''.
** "Death" and "Cross to Bear" from ''Extremist''.
** "Jesus Wept" and "One Less" from ''Outlive''.
** "Ash" from ''War''.

* DarkerAndEdgier: With the exception of their debut and ''Peace'', they have one or two songs without clean vocals per album:

* DarkerAndEdgier: ''Storm the Gates of Hell'' is considered the darkest album of their early era, while ''War'' is this in comparison to the three albums before it.
