The pop-rock genre is becoming a very crowded arena these days, and this Tennessee quintet is the latest band to submit their entry to the marketplace. Nevertheless certainly have the support of the scene, with Relient K's Matthew Thiessen expressing, "Kudos to the band for having such a strong debut." The band has a great determination to succeed, in order to advance the Kingdom of God. As frontman Josh Pearson states, "There is something larger at stake. When you are dead album sales won't matter." Noble sentiments, but can the band deliver a suitable soundtrack? The musicianship is solid, the production slick and polished and the lyrics positive and uplifting. There are no obvious flaws with this record, although the production seems to occasionally lack soul and emotion.
