Probably the best (without exaggeration) Christian Rock album of all time...

By Jay Lord
Start to finish, this is the best christian rock album I have ever heard. The production, the engineering, and mostly, the MUSIC---it is a tapestry of fantastic thought and wonder and musicianship. Ric's vocals (miss ya Ric!) are as fine as they have ever been, and try not to sing along with him on "Over Me" and "Let It Go" as Gordon's underrated guitar licks form perfect counterpoint. Then there's the bass---wow. Tommy's lines are incredible throughout this record.
But...NONE of that would matter if the songs were terrible. They aren't. This album has the best Christian songs that have ever been penned, and they are executed perfectly. Brown Bannister got every bit of talent out of every person involved in this record, and turned it into a work of art.
In fact, this record is so good, it can stand up against lots of the secular music of the era. It's reverbs sound a bit dated, but, what record from the 90's doesn’t save for a few acoustic only albums.
Every song is amazing. This is our "go to" record when we want some inspiration. It'll make you Dance, cry, then laugh, then dance and cry and laugh all at the same time. But mostly it'll just make you want to listen again when you're done. It goes by too fast, and you'll wish there were more like it.
