Here's the shortest record review to boot: "This tape is excellent," says Cliff Powell, the editor of Headbanging - Jesus Style. "The musicianship is excellent, the songs are excellent. Lyrically it is very strong, very spiritual and evangelical! Awesome! But there are a few (minor) problems. There are a few poppy songs, and they don't quite hit it ("When the Lord Comes Back," "Life with the Lord"). But mostly this tape is filled with great hooks that make you want to listen time and again. Also, on the live songs, the drums seem to be kind of 'Rat, tat, tat' sounding. Bad recording. Maybe the mikes were too far away. What can I say, though, besides: 'Get this tape.' It's really easy to get. Order it or something. The heavy songs are about as heavy as...Ratt."
