Seventh Day Slumber:Take Everything
| Seventh Day Slumber returns with their 5th album, and this time they are taking a break from their own songs to bring us a Praise and Worship album. The band brings their unique sound to some P&W classics as well as a few lesser known songs. The first track (How Great Is Our God) brings the heavy guitars and strings from an orchestra together to give this familiar song a very unique sound. The same continues on the second track (Surrender); however, this may be the heaviest track on the album. For the rest of the album it seems to just tone down. The rest of the songs from here are acoustic and piano, with the occasional start or middle of the song with added electric. The song “Nothing But The Blood” isn’t your traditional hymn as most might think, but it does use some of it for the lyrics of the chorus. For their second album that was a little out of their element (being that there last album was done in Spanish) the guys nailed it. Though there is nothing really spectacular about this album, the guys do a good job on bringing their style to the P&W genre. If you’re a fan of SDS, then you’ll definitely want this in your collection. If you’re not much of a rock fan but like P&W, this album probably won’t be up to your liking (Listen before buying). I give it 3.5 stars out of 5 since they accomplished what they set out to do with the P&W, but came up short on the WOW factor.
Members: Joseph Rojas (vocals), Jeremy Holderfield (guitar), Joshua Schwartz (bass), Ray Fryoux (drums) |
