As someone who would be naturally sympathetic towards a christian world view, I still find it hard to listen to the kind of lyrics Craig describes. I think Craig would agree that none of the music made by christians i've been associated with fits this mold.

Jake,
Yes - and the sounds are lovely - no doubt. As a Jewish kid, I'll admit
- the lyrics are SO utterly unambiguous and are uniformly about Jesus as
my savior and my light - that every time I tune into the lyrics I feel a
little on the outside of this one. I'm wondering how others are hearing
it. I really do find the music gorgeous and agree with Jake - it's every
bit as good as Superdrag's finest sounds. I wish I didn't find the
lyrics to be a hurdle.
-craig
N.p. John Davis - s/t

Oh and does anyone else love the new solo John Davis (of Superdrag, not
Korn haha) album?
Girlfriend and I saw him the other nite in Cambridge MA and the show was
AMAZING. Better than the 2 times I saw the 'drag. His new stuff is mad
religious, but the album is MAD good and I can't see a lot of you on
this list not liking it. :)

think it is.
Take care, everyone
