    While way too slickly produced to appeal to fans of hard, hard music, this disc is super impressive. Mixing the sweeping production techniques of The Beatles (check out the strings in "Same Old Street Of Life") with the melodic John Elefante-like lead vocals (but mixed with harmonies that travel in a different but no less appealing path than the "Elefante imprint") and the feel-good rhythms of bands like The Rembrandts and you have a super radio friendly band that could take over Nashville. These boys from Sweden have even added a video to this enhanced CD. Brothers in God definitely live up to their acronym - they're B.I.G., but they're gonna be huge! For ordering info, write: BIG Communications, Hackspettsv 21, S-134 42 Gustavsberg, Sweden
