3 out of 5 stars Good CD   March 26, 2008
 1 out of 2 found this review helpful

If I had it to do over again I might pick up a different CD from this one. With that said it is a good CD, once again hitting on Christian principles of living out your faith in a genuine way. I was a little disappointed though, it seemed to me that they rehashed some of the themes from their old albulmns, and the songs sound a little stale. Nothing really struck me with "wow". I know they do what they do with much personal conviction, I guess I had a hard time seeing that this time around.


3 out of 5 stars Solid album by a great band   March 20, 2008
 3 out of 6 found this review helpful

This album is worth the money but not worth going out of your way for. Casting Crowns is an incredible band. They are hands down the second best band in Christian music. The best band is Leeland. This of course is opinion. There are some good songs on this album such as East to West and I Know You're There. However they are weighed out by songs like Prayer for a Friend and the title track (which was written on the way to the studio). You definitely know it's Mark and the Crowns from track 1 but they seem to have gotten softer and more southern. Maybe this appeals to some but it drives me away. If I wanted to listen to light pop I'd listen to Rebbecca St. J's. Buy the new Leeland album before this. They are the new face of Christian music.

I was really looking forward to getting this cd, but it definitely wasn't what I was expecting. There are a couple great songs on it, but most lyrics lack substance while seeming to try to tell you that they are imparting wisdom. Definitely music driven, but NOT lyric driven. Having said that the music is good, but I bought it for more than the tunes. If it were in a deep discount bargain bin I might buy it again, but probably not. Peace. ~~~mary

I love Casting Crowns. I have every CD. This one is wonderful, too. I love the harmonies, and the strong lead vocals. I play this CD everyday and sing along! It is uplifting.

I love Casting Crowns. This is another great CD. I don't like the "talking" parts that much. But I do like the song "East to West"
