They're Back with a Bang!

Great choice in a new producer, in additional vocalists (Mac and Chris Daughtry sound great together), and in guest musicians (Robert Randolph).
I have been - as many of you have - so excited about hearing this cd. As a huge Third Day fan I love these guys and was hoping it would be something that would be back to "their sound" but offer something new at the same time... I was NOT disappointed.
I honestly think that Mac sounds better than ever. When I first heard "Call my Name" as the first single released my immediate thought was - he's hitting notes he hasn't in the past, stretching himself more. His vocals on this project really are stellar.
My second thought was that musically speaking the sound is more meaty.
The other songs did not change that observation either.
I love that there is everything from what can be a love song to God or a love song to a spouse, to a song that is a challenge to those around us (and ourselves), and then one ("This is Who I Am")that is simply an anthem we should all be singing to the world that as Christians we are just like them in so many ways - an honest picture of what we are. The difference? It plainly shares our hope in a Savior that makes the difference in us.
I don't want to ruin your perspective of it by reviewing every single song... just buy it, enjoy it, and then tell everyone you now to buy it!
Within the 13 songs on this cd there truly is a Revelation - in relating to what we are, who we are, and who we can be.
