Dave Barnes: "Stories To Tell" Review

How many Christian artists do you know that give you a warm feeling inside, every time you listen to their music? Well for me, Dave Barnes is one of them! His enjoyable blend of pop, country, rock and soul, melded with his impassioned vocals and compelling messages are what fans have come to love about him. The GRAMMY® nominated singer songwriter is best known for his runaway single "God Gave Me You", which has sold over a million copies to date. Dave Barnes' sixth studio album, Stories To Tell, takes a new musical turn from his previous efforts. Birthed from his experience during his wife's pregnancy, Stories To Tell is a heartfelt 11-track album that encourages us to hold on to the special moments in our lives, because we never know what's around the corner.

Sent By Ravens: "Mean What You Say" Review

Are you searching for a unique Christian rock band? Well, I've got great news for you – look no further than Sent By Ravens! This five piece hardcore rock group formed in Hartsville, South Carolina where they recorded a few independent EPs. After being discovered by renowned label, Tooth & Nail Records, the band released their debut album Our Graceful Words in 2010. This effort reached #35 on the Billboard® Heatseekers chart, as the band became instantly admired for their soaring guitar melodies, aggressive vocals, and powerful lyrics. Now they return with their highly anticipated sophomore album, Mean What You Say, released on February 28th. Exploring the weight in the words we say, the band takes their driving modern rock sound to a whole new level, as they deliver a release that is far more polished than their debut.

MercyMe To Release "The Hurt and The Healer" on May 22nd!

MercyMe are set to release their new album, The Hurt and The Healer, on May 22nd! Be sure to check out the exclusive pre-sale packages at MercyMe.org! Here is the official press release:

NEWS SOURCE: The Media Collective

Nashville, TN....March 1, 2012.... With the most-added Billboard Christian AC single this week as well as the No. 2 Christian song on iTunes, the buzz for MercyMe's May 22nd release, The Hurt and The Healer, is rapidly escalating.

With an uninterrupted string of 23 #1 career singles, the award-winning and multi-platinum selling band sure seems to have another hit on their hands with the title track garnering a whopping 61 adds from AC, CHR and Inspo formats combined. In addition, the single even debuted at No. 28 on the AC-Monitored and No. 29 on the AC-Indicator charts its first week out.

Fireflight: "NOW" Review

It's been two years since the release of Fireflight's Grammy nominated album For Those Who Wait. While that album had some fist pumping rock tracks, it didn't quite deliver on the same level as their previous efforts. Thankfully, the female-fronted progressive rock act return on March 6th with their fourth studio project NOW. Packed with breathtaking vocals from Dawn Michele, hard hitting drums, soft ballads and thought provoking lyrics, NOW encourages listeners to move beyond their circumstances and take action in their own lives. But does this album live up to the hype created by the radio single? Let's find that out.
