CD Review : David Crowder Band's Remedy

This is truly a rare CD in the music world, phenomenal David Crowder has out done Himself with simple yet brilliantly powerful arrangements.

Taking worship music to a new level blending pop, dance , rock, and soulful ballads.

Songs like "Can You Feel It" make a energetic worship song or a dance club hit. The track "Everything Glorious" Is a catchy and funky worship song filled with layered guitars pulling of some great hammer on, pull off action for the verse then power cord sing a long Chorus of "You make everything glorious".

It's no wonder David Crowder* Band is currently tearing up the Christian music stations, Sirus Christian radio stations, and more. D.C.B. is enjoying a good solid non-stop touring schedule with this album. Featuring the band at several Festivals, and night club typ venues. This allowing the band to do Their true calling of outreach to the broken and abused to show them the love of Jesus Christ.

David Crowder and company share writing credits on nine of the ten tracks. "O, For A Thousand Tongues To Sing" is a traditional written by Charles Wesley, but Crowder takes it one step beyond the traditional Sunday Morning Methodist Hymn. Adding beautiful arrangements and layered guitars, violins, and keyboard.

Production values on the entire CD are amazing, though the credits boast being recorded in David's barn behind His House. Where He tinkers His songwriting skills in a modest self built recording studio.

Certainly an amazing CD that was compiled with love, and some amazing talent.

Most will be shocked to find the Motor City Madman Ted Nugent is a guest guitarist on several tracks. He adds a scorching solo on the song "We Won't Be Quiet".

Several other surprises You find in the liner notes is a website URL in the" thank you" section. It contains a link to a nifty newspaper/diary type website, after clicking on a few stories and such it takes You to a printable certificate called the "Good Reader Award". You print out the certificate and take it to the bands concerts to have it signed by the band so You can frame it on You wall and such. A very touching form of outreach on David Crowder's part.

If You read His biography online, You'll see David Crowder has a gift for bringing Youth, and Young adults to Worship Jesus with His catchy upbeat sing along style music, lyrics, and powerful voice. The title track "remedy" with haunting lyrics will catch anyones attention in any walk of life, while the chorus challenges and uplifts at the same time calling all to "Let Us be the Remedy" asking all who hears to reach out to the broken, and the abused to show them the love of Christ.

I highly recommend this CD to and Youth pastor, Praise, and Worship leader, any one wanting a CD great for all occasions to worship the spirit of God.

This Cd titled "Remedy" is a real change of pace for this reader, finaly a CD our whole family enjoys listening to together. With it's upbeat and rock tempos to suit My taste, powerful hooks and chorus to hold My wife and childrens attention long enuff fof some sing a long action together.
