I've just recently gotten into these guys and they really surprised me. Lot's of classic sound with some Soundgarden and BLS mixed in yet they retain their own style. The second album, Folklore and Superstition is more melodic and they show a lot of maturity. Anyone else into them?

I've seen their name come up as recommendations on Amazon and checked out some clips. Sounded decent, but I wasn't blown away and thus hesitant to make a purchase.

I'm trying to be a little more selective with my spending these days. If I found a disc cheap enough I might give 'em a shot though.

Yeah, I had some trade at this cool little shop in town and got both discs for $10.

Yeah, I like them a lot. I wasn't blown away when I first heard them- I figured they would get lost amongst all the retro bands I listen to- but they have grown on me and I now consider them a standout. They just do what they do and do it well.

I had their first album but it didn't really trip my trigger so I traded it off.

Pretty decent band, not terrible but not that great either.

So, this band is all the rage now. I see the name everywhere. Read an interview with them in Sweden Rock Magazine. Didn't know the members were all Christians.

I didn't know that either, i'm glad they're not trying to shove their religion down people's throats. I got nothing against Christian rock(I like some Christian bands like Skillet), but some of those "Turn-Or-Burn" lyrics really "turn" me off(no pun intended) Bride is one of the worst offenders in that department IMO. Not the biggest fan of Deliverance or Rising Vengeance for that same reason.

I didn't care much for them untill I saw them at rock on the range. Really digged the southern fried rock live.
