Album Reviews

I heard clips of a couple of their songs online, which I liked, and then I saw the CD for $8 or something and I bought it. I wish I could say I love this CD, because I like piano rock and these guys, being Christian, have a great message. The song lyrics are simple but so true, and some of them really spoke to me, but the truth is, I just can't listen to the music for that long. There are a few songs that I really do like, but the rest annoy me a little bit. It's just not one of those CDs that stays in my CD player for a long time. I was hoping I would learn to like it, because the lyrics are great, but their sound just hasn't completely grown on me.

 With the resurgence, and somewhat dullness of rock music, the Swift’s piano led resonance is reviving. Additionally the strong faith-based lyrics proudly proclaim and glorify the Word of God. The fun, bouncy touch of “Come On” is uplifting and spiritually motivating, “More Than Gold” is a ballad that speaks volumes about priorities, specifically making God’s Word a top priority. “Soften Your Heart,” a Keith Green remake, is done to perfection, summing up The Swift’s classic piano-rock sound.

The Swift debut is of the highest quality and originality, and a true blessing to the ear.

I went to a youth conference in January and the Swift were there. I had never heard of them before, but I realized I had heard one of their songs on the radio. They led worship and did a concert- they were awesome!! You can tell that they are really men of God and they don't want you to focus on them, but on God. After the conference I knew I had to get their album.
My favorites on the CD are Wake Up and Almost There. Wow....All the songs are great though!! I never skip any of them...the band is awesome!!! The lyrics are great and once I got the CD I couldn't stop listening to it...I highly recommend this to anyone!!!!!
