In today's culture, it may be difficult to find a worship band that pushes the edge musically and lyrically, and yet is still worship at the core. With the platform of Ammunition Conference held annually in Modesto, California, WDF has a mission not only to be a band but a youth movement that shakes the nation with the presence and power of God. What started out as a simple vision to write original worship songs given by the pastor of Ammunition Conference, Jeremy Johnson, turned into a youth movement of worship and originality. “Our desire has simply been to see our city saved and a empower a generation to reach their cities for Christ,” says worship director of Worth Dying For and Ammunition, Christy Johnson, “Our music and creativity is the bi-product of that passion.”
Worth Dying For draws heavily on a theme that defines the band’s mission: Infiltrate, Destroy, Rebuild. Infiltrate every city with the gospel of Jesus Christ, destroy the works of the enemy, and rebuild today’s youth culture. This ministry is more creed than career, more mission than music. And the music, aggressive guitars, searing vocals and heart-provoking lyrics, speaks for itself.

We bought this album at the Ammo Conference and just to see the hearts transformed during worship and prayer was amazing. The kids just kept singing and stayed even after the event was over and didn't want to go home. It was deep and powerful. This is great to reach all ages and gives you a great arobic workout, lose pounds and your voice at the same time.
I am very impressed by the diverse types of music on this album. It starts off with a powerful rock anthem and includes some rap, pop-ish sounding songs and ends in more worshipful melodies. Every song seems like a genuine reflection on God's love and power, and overall I would say this is a beautifully crafted album. Worth Dying For has made a statement with this album that "christian music" should not be a watered down version of secular music, but that it should be a passionate relfection of the love and creativity God has blessed us with. I would LOVE to buy this album.

I felt this release definitely added a modern mix of diverse styles to the Christian music market. I enjoyed many of the songs and look forward to listening to it this week on NRT.
"Saviour" is the climax| Posted March 26, 2011
The whole album feels very died out, except for perhaps "Saviour". "Destroy" is okay, but it feels like preaching more than anything else. I wouldn't buy this album, as it is very monotone.

This is another band very similar to the whole Hillsong United movement. =| And the CD cover is very similar to Coldplay's "Viva La Vida"... Unoriginal!
