Lol, no. They could've done much worse to it.

It's not blasphemous, it just emphasizes the musical side of the prayer song and de-emphasizes it practical purpose as a pure chant/prayer.

As far as the casual listener outside of a church setting is concerned, there is no problem.

My Christian conscious wants me to apologize for my previous comment and say - if singing the Հայր Մեր like a bunch of dingbats works in helping maintain within these young people an Armenian-Christian identity then all the power to them...

But I still would not want to hear this tastelessness in Church.

While we are on the topic of Armenian spiritual music, the following three gems are by far my favorites:
