Glorifying the Lord to a powerful rock rhythm
Posted August 19, 2009
By FrostyPastor,
It was a year ago at Revelation Generation in NJ that I first saw Skillet live. I knew their hits but was so jazzed by their live show which moved me to backtrack and find their earlier music. I'd have to say Comatose was my favorite (and really enjoyed the Live album and DVD).
I've been waiting for Awake and have enjoyed hearing Hero and Monster over the last months since their release - pre-ordered it as soon as I could. No disappointment! It is everything we've been waiting for.
The production is amazing on top of the writing, the playing and the singing. I hope there is the kind of crossover success that would bring this great music to a wider audience - no reason any number of these songs couldn't be mainstream hits.
The band still keeps their priorities straight - it's all an offering to the Lord and a proclamation of the Gospel.
I'm looking forward to the Awake tour coming to Philadelphia in October. View All Music And Book Reviews By FrostyPastor | View FrostyPastor's Profile
