Reviewed by Robin Thompson

This album has been released and reviewed once already but I'm afraid that I don't share the opinions of those that have gone before! For me, it's another one of those albums where you think it's going to do something really fresh and different but then proves to be a pretty average affair. Shame, as it starts really well with a rivetting acapella intro. The next track, the overlong "Intimacy", is a standard gospel ballad but then "Worthy", a Celtic, dreamy song with a singable hook, suggests that this album might be something really worth listening too. It doesn't last though - the rest follows the pattern set by "Intimacy" of slow to mid-paced soul/gospel inspired songs. Whilst not bad songs in themselves, the arrangements seemed stuck in some muddy worship quagmire and contained far too many MOR clichés to encourage repeated listens.
