Staring at the Son
Artist: SonX
Label: Indie
Time: 12/51:50
SonX is a three-piece Gospel hard rock band from southern Wisconsin.They've
been together about four years. Their music, as they say, "has an in-your-face
approach to presenting the Gospel"--the songs are all very Christ-centered,
such as "People of the Night":
Jesus loves the people of the night
To take away the wrong and make it right
To bring them out of darkness into light
Jesus loves the people of the night
The music is made up of a mixture of styles, including metal, 70's rock,
and blues but leans toward the heavy end. The blues elements and the vocals
are weak; they should stay with the heavier side of their style.
The solo tracks work the best--the group ones seem to be poorly mixed;
they need to be farther back in the mix. The production is adequate. This
isn't a great album, but it is okay. There are sound bites on their
website--if you like your music heavy, give this site a visit and
judge for yourself.
