Rock & Pop > Christian Rock Rock & Pop

Not a lot of people know this...

Advantages: One of the top songs of the year
Disadvantages: Only one from an excellent album released in the charts by this awesome group

Sixpence none the richer's super hit "kiss me" is one of those rare songs which occasionally come along, and just stick in your mind. So where did this group suddenly spring from? I have been following them for a while now, and their roots are quite interesting. They have released a number of albums, and as far as I understand singles aswell. So why didn't we hear about them? Simple - they were all released into the Christian charts in America. ...
...songs, many of which I have heard played in churches. This is one of the rare occasions whereby a Christian artist released a single into the "normal" charts - and it achieved amazing success. Just goes to show that church music has come a long way from "onward Christian Soldier," and such... An excellent allround song, with a fresh original sound - and a message behind it than is unbeatable! ...

Review of Wonder What's Next - Chevelle

Go deeper - but how deep...

Advantages: Modern pop/ rock music.
Disadvantages: Christian messages may put some people off.

This is a more of a compilation CD, but with a difference. Whereas a compliation CD would normally take songs from a number of different albums etc and put them in one place, this CD actually has a number of Delirious songs that have actually been re-worked. An introduction to the band was actually given in a previous review, but for those of you who missed it then here is another introduction to them. For Ciao purposes, I am not looking back to ...
...coincidence. Delirious started life way back in the early 1990's in Littlehampton on the south coast of England, but were orginially known as the Cutting Edge band. This is because they lead worship at a local Christian youth setting that was held regularly, believe it or not called Cutting Edge. They wrote all their own stuff, which becoming more well known across the country. This then lead to them realising that they needed to change their image ...

Review of Deeper (The Definitive Worship Experience) - Delirious

Save me from my unhealthy lust of material things

Advantages: Some thought provoking lyrics and toe-tapping tracks
Disadvantages: Not the greatest Delirious? album, no instant classics

Overview Kingdom of Comfort is the last studio album produced by Delirious? prior to their disbandment later this year (2009) and the first without Stew on drums. History making on several levels, this is unfortunately not the best album ever produced by the boys from Littlehampton. Tracklisting 1. Kingdom of Comfort The title track of the album is heartfelt call to God requesting deliverance from the consumer society in ...
...creates in us. This track is one of the highlights of the album with lyrics that make you think about the way in which we in the West live in disregard of our spiritual lives and also our fellow man in poorer nations. I really like the way this track works up into a huge instrumental crescendo of ethereal vocals and organs over the lead vocals before the track just stops dead. Best lyric: 'I rob myself of innocence With the poison of indifference' ...
