    pop metallo-fi

    This Pop Metal band cranks out some happy music with a simplistic, straight-ahead style and low to medium fidelity production. A profound break happens during the song "Jesus First" that has good things to say, but it sounds like a middle-age pastor delivering it instead of a Rock and Roll musicianary. "Put On The Armor" has a decent hook, but the vocals lack the production help to make the song rock. This band shows a lot of potential and approaches their music from a very worshipful and "let's minister" attitude. They must work well in youth group settings, etc. Robert Keehn's guitar playing is commendable. To order, send $6 (and make out checks/M.O.'s) to: Axiom Music Group, PO Box 14112, Louisville KY 40214-0112.
