Hit: 5 Stars
UK Christian Rock band Delirious? are my favourite Gospel act, well until dc Talk come back (and that looks like it will be a loooong time!).
"Kingdom of comfort" finds their edgy U2/Radiohead sound amped up to the max; highly melodic rockers with enough sonic flourishes to give them individuality.
The opening title track opens deceptively downbeat and acoustic before kicking into high gear, with lyrics requesting salvation from the trappings of worldliness. The cheery "God is smiling" sounds very much like what Coldplay would do, highly melodic with driving guitars.
Lyrically, they tackle weighty topics on some songs; The upbeat "Stare the monster down" talks about a bout with cancer ("Eighteen weeks of chemo/Six doses of hell/A family bucket of pills a day/To make my father well"), while the sombre and atmospheric ballad "All God's children" was inspired by meeting prostitutes and their children during a visit to India.
The gently pulsing and chiming U2-esque "Love will find a way" is truly beautiful with lovely harmonies. The tender piano ballad "We give you praise" is a song of praise and worship to God. It starts off gentle, building to an exultant climax. "How sweet the name" is an almost hymnal piano ballad with a rocky coda featuring distorted vocals. The ballad "My soul sings" (laden with electronic flourishes) closes the CD in a worshipful choir mood.
My absolute favourite song is "Eagle rider", a simply awesome faintly Latin tinged Rocker with jangly guitars and metaphorical imagery about a flight on the wings of the Holy Spirit. Truly awesome!
It's always interesting to see Delirious? constantly pushing themselves outside of their comfort zone, lyrically and musically.
