It's not all that surprising to me. Some of our best music has long been Christian. "Christian Rock" is a strange anomaly.

Five Iron Frenzy is some of the best of third-wave ska, and they're an explicitly Christian band with Christian subject matter.

And, of course, Black Sabbath had Ozzy in the character of the devil and used Christian themes extensively.
