The Exchange offers a new option for those looking for modern radio pop/rock. With a bouncy and energetic sound, on their latest effort Compass The Exchange tackle honest and personal topics through the lens of sound musicianship and vocals that aren't as over-polished and autotuned as many comparable projects.
The band excels at the big, anthemic pop sound, and songs like the leadoff "Sparks" and the rousing closer "Running Home" exemplify the best of this. The lyrics tackle familiar but commendable territory in the Christian realm, playing it safe without getting too caught up in the cliché. The band's sound could benefit from a bit of fine-tuning in terms of better finding their signature sound and diversifying their stylistic approach, but this collection of songs still merits a listen for fans of the genre.
The Bottom Line:
Pop/Rock fans should take note: they may discover a promising addition to their playlist.
