This cd is the best christian rock cd I have ever heard. The guitars crunch and the bass pounds and the drums tear apart your ears. I would buy this cd again if I lost it or broke. I highly recommend this cd to everyone. This vocals on this cd sent chills up and down my spine. Especially on the chorus of "Vow.
Flyleaf | Posted August-22-2007
A buzz began to circulate over Belton, Texas, quartet Flyleaf when the band's debut EP first made the rounds. Fronted by singer Lacey Mosley, the band generates an enormous sound that draws on elements of nu-metal, screamo, and alternative rock, with Mosley's sometimes ferocious/sometimes sweet vocals lending the group a distinctive edge. Expectation ran high for the band's first long-player, but, luckily, Flyleaf's self-titled debut full-length doesn't disappoint. Leading off with the album's first single, "I'm So Sick," the album states its business and continues from there. There are hooks and melodic elements woven skillfully into the thrash, ensuring that Flyleaf's songs won't fade away as easily as many by their alt-metal contemporaries. But don't let Mosley's sometimes charming voice lull you: she can scream like a banshee, and the band hits with as much muscle as anyone on the scene. Fans of the genre are encouraged to check this out.
It's interesting to finally hear a girl singing metal. I personally love it. The riffs are shattering, the lyrics are deep and often spiritual, yet it's monstrously heavy. And Lacey Mosley is incredibly unique. She will ease your mind one minute, then floor you with a viper-ish scream the next minute. Devastating riffs on "Fully Alive", "I'm So Sick" and "Cassie" (which talks about the Columbine shooting in the 90's), the latter also having some wicked drum and bass work. And "So I Thought", the closer, is one of the most genuinely moving songs I've ever heard. Unlike those whiney, annoying alternative ballads, this one has a gorgeous, heart-breaking melody and lyric that can bring one to tears. These guys are AWESOME. Hopefully they stick around for a while.
Define The Great Line | Posted August-22-2007
After overcoming some critical personal shakeups to produce 2004's excellent THEY'RE ONLY CHASING SAFETY, Florida's Underoath fulfilled the immense expectations set by that album--to transcend their audience's demands and still uphold their Christian metal roots--with 2006's DEFINE THE GREAT LINE. The Band undertakes this follow-up effort with such unbending ferocity that they leave most of their pop/screamo contemporaries in the dust. Vocalist Spencer Chamberlain removes himself from the sugary trappings of his brethren frontmen, gracing even his melodic passages with the angst and chaos that underline his more lungbusting turns. The band behind him has learned enough lessons from legitimate, vinyl-only, handmade-sleeve '90s screamo to make more learned listeners realize that these guys are as close to the real deal as anyone. Combining bracing melodies with unchecked aggression, Underoath may have made the defining album of the movement with DEFINE THE GREAT LINE.
Underoath construct dense, chaotic metalcore that emphasizes the struggle inherent in faith.
They flaunt their hard-rock prowess with flailing, bottom-heavy riffs throughout, while letting their punk rock and post-hardcore roots show.

"Christian's vocals successfully leap higher into the stratosphere than ever before and at times, the band get more intricate and mature than they've ever been."

Like contemporaries P.O.D. and Pillar, Skillet plays a bone-shaking, completely uncompromising brand of nu-metal that upon first glance offers very little indication of the group's evangelical Christian beliefs. Musically, the band plows some of the same ground as melodic neo-grunge groups such as Nickelback and Trapt, yet adds a conviction, raw energy, and experimental edge that takes its cue from earlier, more progressive bands such as Jane's Addiction, Nine Inch Nails, and Tool. Lead vocalist/bassist John Cooper's lyrics, though clearly faith-based, ironically represent some of the most chillingly direct and angst-driven songwriting this side of Nirvana. Backed by a mix of highly rhythmic de-tuned guitars, speed metal-style drum fills, and a plethora of spooky industrial-style samples, Cooper drives home his inspirational message with a tortured howl that equals any of his secular contemporaries.

Norma Jean not only deliver the goods on this album, they stuff metal in the face of people who think Christian music cant rock. It doesn't matter whether or not you are Christian.
