If you liked the first release from this Christian/Latin/Pop band, then you won't be disappointed with their new release, Into Motion. Although not quite as Latin in feel as the last album, there's still plenty of the percussion and latin elements that kept everyone's toes tapping. Into Motion actually goes further lyrically with more substantial content. Where the first album was more of a straight forward worship album set to some amazing music, this album leans more toward traditional pop crafted songs with verse/chorus structure. Don't misunderstand, these are not fluffy radio tunes. Salvador is made up of some of the most talented and gifted musicians and songwriters around, regardless of genre. One standout cut to me is "Can't Keep It In" While not the meatiest track lyrically, it is still far superior to most anything on hit radio today. This song should be a hit. The influences are still strong: Santana, EW&F, Chicago, which is fabulous considering most of the members are under 30. If you are into real music, played by real musicians with a real message, check out Salvador. Christians will be blessed. Non-Christians will be impressed.

After buying Salvador's first album, and absolutely loving it, the anticipation of this album was overwhelming. On first listen, I was a bit disappointed. The powerful latin beat which permeated "Salvador" was not there. In all fairness to the band, on the second listen, I paid more attention to the meat of the songs, the lyrics. "Into Motion" is a more personal album, speaking more from the heart of the band, and to the heart of the listener. One can also sense their deepening devotion to God. After listening to this CD several times, I've changed my original rating from a 4 to a 5. GREAT!!

Oh man, you have absolutely got to get this CD. I got it just for the track "Can't Keep It In" and was astounded by how awesome all the other songs are. In my opinion, it's much better than Salvador's first album. The lyrics are more in-depth this time around, and they really make you think. Some tunes that stand out to me are "City on a Hill," "Can't Keep It In," "Mighty King of Love," and "Worthy". And then there's the incredible worship song "Psalm 3," which just makes me lift my hands every time I hear it. "Alegria" has a great upbeat groove that makes you want to jump up and down for God, even if you don't know what they're saying. This is an amazing band with a passion for Christ that shows in their music, and it's one to keep your eye on.

Spiritually uplifting. Sophisticated sound. I highly recommend this recording, as well as their "So Natural" CD.

What a pleasant surprise this CD was. I actually loved their first CD and I thought it could not get better than that! Well this CD is like a complement to the first. The lyrics are very good and the music excellent. Less latin influence than in their first CD, but still full of rhythm. I know people have very different tastes in music but I do not think you will regret it.

I loved their first CD and was pleasantly surprised that this one is just as great, if not better!!!! I played it for weeks straight and I keep going back to it. Plus, I'm checking for the next one!!!!
