After four full-length albums, accompanied by a handful of EPs, filled with electro-pop punk about the average teenager's dilemmas and a few songs of faith, Eleventyseven has dedicated an entire EP to just their faith. They've taken time-worn hymns and added their signature synth and youthfulness. It is a very tasteful marriage of traditional songs with a modern sound and is a perfect example that true worship does not have to have an organ in the background. The "Good Spells" EP is a must-have for a worshiper with an affinity for tech.

Hymns are so hot right now, and it seems like the goal of many an artist these days is to dust off the timeless songs of the faith and make them accessible to a new generation. But man, it'd be pretty difficult for any band to do that better than Eleventyseven's Good Spells, a collection of five hymns that are given a bright, upbeat electro-pop makeover without losing the songs' original melodies or heart. Equal parts soul and synth, this album is a celebration of these incredible songs that stands shoulder-to-shoulder with some of the best Christian pop out today. You've never heard "Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus", "Come Thou Fount" and "I Surrender All" like this before.
