The Clear
Live Stomach
Reviewed by Doug Van Pelt
Fans of scaterd-few's zany, reckless punk will probably like this CD of rabid tunes. Like me, though, most Christians will be so put off by the use of "coarse language" in a few places here, like "...you don't give a s***..." (in "Temptation"), that they won't give The Clear many repeated listenings. It's true, sometimes believers may strain at gnats (cussing) and swallow camels (greed, pride, hatred), but the use of "unwholesome words" in art is usually offensive to me. Most Christians buy Christian music because they want to be edified, not be brought down by hearing cuss words. The music here is done well. To order, send $15 to: Rad Rocker's Emporium, 370 Greentree Lane, Milan MI 48160.
