Album Review - Love Riot

By -
Unlike Matt Price, The Newsboys have been around for ages.  Michael Tait took over recently and has done three or four albums with the Newsboys, and the most recent of these was Love Riot.  However, before Michael Tait, Peter Furler was the lead singer for the longest time, but then broke off.  The band still has some of the originals including Duncan Phillips (Drummer), and Jeff Frankenstein (keys) to name a couple.  They also have put out a couple of movies in the past several years including God's Not Dead, Do You Believe?, and God's Not Dead 2.

Review
The Modern Newsboys have quite a record of hits ranging from Gods Not Dead (Like a Lion), We Believe, and The hit that DC Talk sang all those years back, Jesus Freak.   This album also has a major hit on it and that one is Guilty.  When Micheal Tait first came on the scene he completely rocked the way that the newsboys sounded.  This album is the same as his previous albums with the group.  There are some overly repeated terms on this CD but not more then I care to hear.  There is also some amazing worship tracks on this CD as well, which helps the group with be constant with their sound.  Over all I give the newsboys a 4.5 on a 5 star scale.

My Favorite Tracks 
  1. Love Riot
  2. You Hold it all (Every Mountain)  
  3. Guilty

Pack Mentality: Season 2 Part 9

"I do not know.  I truly do not know."  Then an elongated silence followed ended by some rustling of the bushes by where they were.   Rick raced to the truck and grabbed his rifle and flashlight, and tossed Jackson's crossbow to him.  The two of them waited in anticipation for what was to come hoping that it was one of their wolves.  Then Ash came exploding through the bushes. _______________________________ "Thank God!" Rick erupted as he put his rifle down lightly because it was still loaded. "Don't let out a sigh of relief just yet." Ash panted, "Bramble and I might have found something, but we need to hurry.  We caught a strong scent, so whatever it was, may still be there.  Let's go!" Rick set out four reflectors around the campsite, and jumped into the driver's seat, while Jackson went into the passenger seat. The group took off, Ash leading the way at a steady jog while Rick and Jackson kept a safe distance.  Rick ...

New Year New Me - Blog Goals

As the ball dropped in NYC on December 31, I started to think of some ways to make both myself, and this blog better, and set this blog apart from other blogs.  Granted this is going to be hard so I started to do some brainstorming.  As I started to brainstorm, I came up with several ideas, but a lot of them are going to be really hard to achieve, especially on a students' budget.  I am going to star the ideas that I feel are more of a 3-year plan. After the initial list, I am going to break down each one for you all.  Be more approachable especially when I am going to different places. Stay up to date with my posts.  Post more about stuff that I am going through. Summer Series* Do some Vlogs on either Periscope, Youtube, or Facebook* Be more approachable especially when I am going to different places. Some of you who have been reading this blog know that I have been to several different places.  These places Range from local-ish places to Europe...

Pack Mentality Season 2 Part 11

Then-- Rick started to change.  The transition started with the eyes and then started to expand until he wound up with him being slightly bigger than Jackson, the eyes of his wolf-like form, slightly darker than Jacksons', Seeming to show the relationship between the two. The two of them trotted side-by-side, over to the scar-faced wolf and then, with a slight glint of pride the scared wolf said, "Welcome young Jackson.  Rick, do you promise to train Jackson in the ways of the wolf?" __________________________________ Rick stepped towards the Alpha, a glint of pride seemed to reflect off of his wolf like form and a spark of intent sparkled in his blaze orange eyes.   "I will, but not to the point where the monster takes over the man, Brandon ." Ricks' ears fell flat, and he let out a frustrated growl.  The alpha answered his challenge.  The two reared up and claws about the size of an eagle's talons retracted out of there paws, a glint of moonl...
