Simply amazing

After streaming this album this morning, and having previously listened to 'Today Is The Day' many times over the last 2 years, I have to admit, that 'Real Life' is a big improvement. I'm not however, saying that 'Today Is The Day' needed much improvement, as in my opinion, it pushed the boundaries that the Christian worship genre had up to now. Lincoln Brewster's guitar work on 'Real Life' is simply stunning, and adds power to a group of songs that already have incredible meaning and strong lyrics. Lincoln's subtle guitar work behind the melodies gives the album something different to most other worship albums. However Lincoln's, not-so-subtle guitar solos within these songs, (and the shredding at the finale of two songs) adds something far different than really any other Christian worship album. For those who are fans of the Classic Rock genre, or the fast re-emerging Blues scene, they really have something to get very excited about - fusing worship songs with incredible, talented guitar work. Brewster's vocals on this album are far stronger than 'Today Is The Day', and his voice particularly sounds good on 'Amazing' and 'Real Life'. The entire album is refreshingly different, powerful and very uplifting. I, not only look forward to purchasing my copy of 'Real Life' when it's released, but also to hearing Lincoln's music for many, many years to come.
