I wouldn't necessarily say it was straight to the point, but nevertheless it was a good review.

I disagree - I think that this review revealed quite a bit more about the music (and the overall experience that the album offers) than quite a few of the reviews on this site do. Not to knock the review(er)s published here, but there are more informative ways to review an album than to simply provide a track-by-track run-through that reads: "track 1 opens with a steady drumbeat and ____ vocalist's strong voice in an insanely catchy chorus. Track 2 has the same great voice and heavy, yet catchy guitars. Track 3 offers more of the same, and switches it up a bit with an aggressive, yet melodic guitar riff." To me, that says little. This review, while brief, painted an incredible picture. Keep up the great work, Russ. It's wonderful to have you here.

You get me.

well done! good review revealing what is heard in the music, vocals, and lyrics each specifically. i'm not christian either... but i HAVE to agree that the passion some of the christian proclaimed bands put out in my mind is a catalyst for inspired profound tunes. thanks russ

yeah I loved this review . great job. it's above all very entertaining to read
