The Hope and the Glory

Issue publishedFebruary 2011 Artist Ian Yates

After bouncing up and down like a trampolinist, the needle on my cliché-ometer shot into the red when it heard, ‘Great is your power, great are your ways, great is your faithfulness, great is your name… We exalt you (repeat).’

Rise

Issue publishedFebruary 2011 Artist Riverdeep

The chances are that you have not yet heard of rock band Riverdeep, but this five-piece unit hope to change that with the release of their debut album Rise.

Everlasting God

Issue publishedFebruary 2011 Artist YFriday

Doing what it says on the tin, Everlasting God – The Very Best of YFriday seeks to capture the finest tracks released by the Newcastle four-piece since the band formed in 1994 as the house band for a Youth for Christ outreach event.

One Way Ticket

Issue publishedDecember 2010 Artist Bryn Haworth

When many Christian musicians are either too proud to acknowledge their faith or lack skills in describing anything else, this collection shows how to get it right.

The Lamb has Conquered

Issue publishedDecember 2010 Artist Mercy Vineyard, Southampton

Given this album’s title and artwork, I had resigned myself to reviewing another youth-orientated generic rock album filled with Hillsong-esque guitar anthems.

All I have needed

Issue publishedJanuary 2011 Artist Leah Mari

This is an interesting album. It is an attempt to rehabilitate a whole range of classic hymns. It isn’t that Leah Mari does anything particularly radical; what she does is take the old favourites and add her own musical twist.

Born Again

Issue publishedJanuary 2011 Artist Newsboys

You could say the Newsboys are the Sugababes of Christian music, albeit with hairier chests.

Glory to you

Issue publishedDecember 2010 Artist Various Artists

This is an album that does what it says on the tin. The quality of musicianship is everything you would expect with musicians like Nicki Rogers and Eoghan Heaslip involved and the songs are very much in the genre of today’s contemporary worship.

Not Guilty Anymore

Issue publishedJanuary 2011 Artist Aaron Keyes
