'maybe the most transgressive thing a rock band could do is to serve the Eucharist'

'Because in a secular age, transcendence is transgression. To write songs that yearn for something more – not in a vague, pie-in-the-sky way, but in a sacramental, earthy, no-ideas-but-in-things way – is to transgress the spirit of the times which demands there is no such thing as spirit.'

Joel Heng Hartse is writing in Christ and Pop Culture about Luxury, a band with three members - Lee Bozeman, and his guitarist and brother James Bozeman, and the band’s bassist, Chris Foley - who are all Orthodox priests. Luxury are '(a) a sincere, wounded rock band who sing about sex, death, and decadence, and also (b) a group of mostly bearded men who largely spend their time performing liturgies, administering sacraments, and providing pastoral care.'
