BIOGRAPHY/REVIEW:
(http://www.fireflightrock.com/)
This is album is the stuff of legends. You can expect to hear catchy rock riffs laid down with a unique, enjoyable guitar tone. Dawn Richardson's singing is irreplaceable because her voice is a perfect fit for bright, edgy music. Her lyrics are inspiring and powerfully relevant to the hurt and the broken who look for hope and freedom in Christ from all the pain and uncontrolled behaviors in their lives. I liked almost every second of this album the first time I listened to it. Lyrically and musically this album has more hooks than a tackle box, and I'm certain this album is on its way to winning a Dove Award. There is no need for uncertainty; just go ahead and buy this album and see for yourself how good it is.Fireflight offers upbeat, rocking Christian music that combines sensible, positive lyrics with music you can feel and appreciate for its artistic quality. The songs vary in style, but all are great. Perfect for your ipod for the car or running, etc.The vocalist can really sing and the music rocks. One complaint I do have is that the guitar playing is just average. Where are the solos? This would be A much better CD if they did have a few rockin solos in the songs.I was looking for something else when I ran across FireFlight. I am often reluctant to buy Christian music because it appears to me that the message is often placed before the quality of the music. This is not the case here. Quality rock with a good message. It's almost strange to get an uplifting message when much of what is put out today is just the opposite. Great..Fireflight's first CD, The Healing of Harms, was very good. But Unbreakable rises to the level of being great. The music is tight and driving, with a crunchy post-grunge, alt-metal sound to it. If you like hard rock, this is your style. Fireflight has a sound similar to Flyleaf, minus the screaming vocals, and is comparable in quality to Red, another terrific Christian alt-rock band. The lead vocalist, Dawn Richardson, has an outstanding voice. She gives the songs a bit of a glam rock feel at times, but it all works very nicely. Let me tell you, this girl has pipes. She can flat-out sing! Soaring above the music at times, really fun to listen to. Fireflight is a Christian band, but they're not doing worship music and they don't get preachy. Even if you're not a religious person, it's nice to have some driving rock sound, fronted by a great female vocalist, with positive lyrics. No one is being urged to hurt themselves or anyone else on a Fireflight album. The message is to hang in there, because there is always hope and forgiveness(http://www.holymetalrob.com/)
