This is the latest project from Michael Knott, patriarch of alternative Christian music, and his band. This is probably their best album yet. The lyrics are the most inspirational Michael has ever written, such as "Christ Saves" and "Grace." His struggle with alcoholism also comes through on songs like "Bad Disease" and "Gift Taker." A constant theme is the power of God's grace in his life. Production value is very high with the credit going to Knott himself as producer. Fans of edgy guitars and deep rich vocals should definitely give this one a listen.
