    What's this? Keyboards? Drum loops? Sure enough, this ministry-oriented threesome has taken a dip in the electronica pool. Some songs, like "Deeper," draw the band into Eric Champion territory, but others, like "Dive Over In," slap a label on the band more befitting of bands as varied as Circle of Dust and Audio Adrenaline. The jump seems to be a good thing, because the record shows no signs of poserdom. In fact, the boys sound as comfortable here, if not more, than on their debut, with just as much passion and rawness. And leave it to those techno-gurus at Ardent to put a ton of cool enhanced stuff on here.
