* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments: One for the fanbase, so a sort of meta-example. The band has managed to gain a devoted fanbase of people who aren't Christians or believers at all in addition to all their fans who are all united by their love of the band.

Trope cut per TRS.


* FaceOfTheBand: Trevor [=McNevan=]. While Joel Bruyere and Steve Augustine have been with the band for a long time (since 1999 and 2001, respectively), Trevor is the most recognizable member and he's the only founding member who is still with the band. It helps that he's made more than a few guest appearances on albums for other Christian bands, including popular groups like Music/DemonHunter and Music/TobyMac, along with lesser-known bands like Nine Lashes.

YMMV can't be played with.


* FirstInstallmentWins: Averted. While not necessarily disliked, the band's earliest albums, ''That's What People Do'' and ''Set it Off'' are nowhere near as popular as later albums such as ''Welcome to the Masquerade'' and ''The End Is Where We Begin''. More recent live shows don't feature much material from the two earliest albums, and those songs tend to have lower view counts on [=YouTube=].

Per TRS, this is YMMV

Added DiffLines:

* RefrainFromAssuming: "Be Somebody" is often called "I'm Just A Boy Inside A Man" thanks to the lyrics.

AAE is a knee-jerk and justifying ZCE. Moving the EIW example to the trope page.


* DorkAge: It's too early to tell, but ''Oxygen:Inhale'' seems to be becoming this. The follow up ''Exhale'' was better received though.
** Even so, ''Inhale'' is not without its fans. The album charted highly, and "Untraveled Road" is easily one of the band's most popular songs.
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness:
** In the mid-90s, Trevor had a little-known band (perhaps appropriately) called "Oddball", which could be considered the earliest iteration of Thousand Foot Krutch. Oddball released only one album, ''Shutterbug'', which sounds little like TFK, with considerably more acoustic work, a less polished production (as you might expect), and less vocal intensity from Trevor.
** Comparatively, the earliest "proper" Thousand Foot Krutch albums, ''That's What People Do'' and ''Set It Off'' tend to lean more heavily into the rap side of rap metal. Later albums would gradually incorporate less influence from rap and hip-hop, while leaning more into heavy metal.

* EvenBetterSequel: Or SurprisinglyImprovedSequel. ''Phenomenon'' is a bit of a departure from the first two albums and probably the band's breakout album, featuring some of the band's earliest hits. The albums to follow were just as, if not more successful, so it could be said that ''Phenomenon'' was where the band established its identity.
