| Anyone know anything about this band. They put out a cd in 2001 and another in 09 I think. There are a cuople of christian dealers that are selling them, but we all know how that is. I think three brothers are the band.
Thanks for the info!!!

| Ok, now I know why neither of you wanted to give a description of the music. I guess this description would fit just as well as any else.  | Quote: | | Fiercely original heavy rock with hints of grunge, metal, and prog. |
I would probably have a hard time arguing with that. Are these guys claiming to be a Christian group? I like the few songs that had samples for their second album. But I fear it is one of those albums that could go either way with me. I might get it and absolutely love it, or get burnt out on it really easy.

Think a hard rock distillation of Tool and Soundgarden and you're half-way there. AWESOME band. Their 2 CDs came out in 2001 and 2007. From what I understand they're still active, though painfully slowly so. As far as them being "Christian", I can't speak to it based on the lyrics, because neither booklet comes with them, but you can hear shades of faith in them when you listen, so I'd say "safe" at the very least, if not "Christian-friendly" if not subtly based around Christian faith. I highly recommend both CDs, both are excellent. |
