Meh..., 2005-09-07
I like rock, and I also like some hard rock, but is this rock? br / br / There are some songs on here that shouldn't be considered rock. Yeah, maybe hip hop rock (like Linkin Park for instance). Personally I don't like "rock" artists that rap a lot in their music (like Toby Mac), although, some of it sounds good, I just don't find rapping in rock music to be that great. br / br / But honestly, the last bonus track is clearly a rap song. I like some rap music, but it isn't rock and further more, I don't even like the song as a "rap" song. This album is stating that it's Christian rock hits, but the last track isn't even rock. What's the deal with that? br / br / There are some good quality rock hits on here, like Audio Adrenaline, 12 Stones and Plus One (who used to be a "pop" band). br / br / Some of the songs on here sound almost the same or like something I have heard on the radio. FM Static? I have never heard of the band, and the song that they sing isn't even Christian. I mean, they're perhaps a Christian band, but what the song is all about is a girl named Katie who has a boyfriend who perhaps doesn't love her. It's all about teen love and stuff like that. I find the song to be rather annoying, musically. I don't understand why this is a hit? Why do people like this stuff? Seriously. br / br / My advice is to check out something different. Most of this sounds like mainstream rock music that the teenagers of this generation conform their lifestyle too. I don't mean to offend anyone who enjoys these artists personally. I like a few of these artists myself. I'm just disappointed with how Christian "Rock" music is going to these days...

X 2004, 2004-06-23
When 'X 2003' came out, I was fairly new to christian rock music, and very excited by it. I had heard several of the groups on '2003', and like them. First chance I got, I bought the cd, and it has been a jewel to my ever-growing collection of christian rock cds.pSo 'X 2004' had lots of appeal to me when it came out. Although it doesn't have as many songs as 'X 2003' (34 songs to 18, I wasn't very happy about that), but the music is still great. Some of the slower, or more boring styles of songs from 'X 2003' have been shaved away and the result is an even harder, edgier, and BETTER cd. Even if there aren't as many songs.
