“Still Standing…”
Rock
11-Tracks
Nineteen Eighties Style Rock is alive and well in the band Sweet
Crystal’s
sound. The band’s music reminds me of groups such as; Journey, Kansas and Styxs. Their music is filled with guitar hooks and symphonic almost whimsical sounding keyboards. The band has gained much experience over the past
twenty five years of the group’s existence opening for such acts as, Bob
Segar, Nazareth, Foghat and Steppenwolf. It shows in the almost flawless
sound and production on this release.
The lyrics of the songs hold up their part also and are very strong and from the heart. With songs like, “Soliders
Of The Crown,” with lyrics talking about needing to stand strong in our faith in face of all the temptations this world throws at us. To the
song, “Messiah Song,” with lyrics telling about the life of Jesus from
His
miracle birth to His ascension into Heaven. The CD finishes up strong
with
a live cut of the song,” Stand Up & Shout” followed by two instrumentals,
“Looking Back” and “Ominicity.”
I can see why this band has been around for twenty five years. Their music is top notch and I wouldn’t be surprised,
God willing, to see them around another twenty five years. You owe it to
yourself to buy this CD and it would also make a nice gift for either a
saved or unsaved friend.
