Another reflective album
Posted August 27, 2013
By NeilSteinwand,
Being a Jars fan since their first album in 1995, I bought their newest album automatically. Seeing the first two singles released, "After the Fight" and "Inland" were mid-tempo songs, I didn't expect any heavier stuff like "Revolution" or "Weapons"; the full album didn't surprise me there. The songs highlight Dan's voice and the music is multi-layered keyboard/guitar mixtures. After listening to the album three to four times, I realized I enjoy it, but not as much as "Long Fall" or "Who We Are". The first single "After the Fight" is my favorite song, but "Reckless Forgiver" has the most penetrating lyrics, reminding us of our God, who is among other things, a reckless forgiver (Lk 15). Jars of Clay fans will like it, but it may take a while to enjoy all of the nuances of the album. View All Music And Book Reviews By NeilSteinwand | View NeilSteinwand's Profile
