[MAIN REVIEW]
November 25th is a great day for fans of Jeremy Camp as his fifth studio album, Speaking Louder than Before, joins his 3 RIAA Gold albums on shelves across America. The album was recorded this past summer in Nashville, TN and was co-produced by Camp and Brown Bannister. I will try not to be bias on this review since I have been a Jeremy Camp fan since his debut album, Stay.
This new album grabbed me from the very beginning with the song, “Slow Down Time.” I absolutely loved the message of this song! He sings about wishing he could slow down time so that he could spend more time with God. This is such a cry that all of us should strive for. Thankfully the great message does not end with the first song but resonates throughout the whole album. Jeremy’s wife, Adie Camp, joins him for the songs, “Healing Hand of God,” and “Surrender.” They do a wonderful job singing together, especially on the song, “Surrender”. This song is truly anointed and a definite must listen.
The Christian music industry is a big industry and sometimes can pull people after the almighty dollar and sometimes that same dollar will pull a Godly artist away from their message, but one thing I love about Jeremy is that he has never sold out and he proves that in his new album. In fact along with this album he has produced video devotions that go along with each of the 12 songs. These videos will be an awesome resource to not only learn more about the song but could be used in Bible study as well.
Speaking of videos, the music video for the title track, “Speaking Louder Than Before,” will be coming soon. This is a great album and I am excited to see what it does for the kingdom of God. I found it to be very uplifting and an inspiration to me as I listened to it. I highly recommend this album to not only to Campers (Camp fans) but all others. Give this album a GO and you will not be disappointed.
CLOSING THOUGHTS
Jeremy has had great success with his other albums with over 3.5 million in album sales and I wish him nothing but huge success with this new album. It truly is an album that will be a great listen and also effective in ministry. My closing thought, GO OUT AND GET IT!
Rating: 9.2 out of 10 (92%, A-)
