5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for the whole family, July 26, 2010

It's hard to find great kid's music that's both fun to listen to and has rich content. So when I learned about Meet the Rizers, I was very pleased because we have very little children's music I'd consider great.

Meet the Rizers blew me away.

By taking nine passages from the Bible and setting them to music, Meet the Rizers allows children (and parents) to not only listen to some catchy, head bopping music, but to learn to memorize Scripture. It's very clever and I've got to commend them for it, particularly since it had to have been challenging to arrange the music for each verse. It's evident that a great deal of care has been taken with each song to make sure the integrity of the Scripture is maintained while not sacrificing musical quality.

A particular favorite of mine is Psalm 8:1. Because the psalms are mostly songs, it was fascinating for me to hear one set to music. And the arrangement works so well--it's fun to listen to and easy to memorize.

The only downside with this record: My 3-year-old daughter wants to listen to it ALL the time--which is a good problem to have, but it means I need to find more children's music of this caliber.

Meet the Rizers sets the bar high for future releases from the group and for kid-friendly music in general.

If you're looking for something for your next road trip, don't pass up this record.

5.0 out of 5 stars [MEET THE RIZERS] Parents, you'll enjoy this as much as (if not more than) your kids!, August 3, 2011

OK, the title is true for me because my son can't even walk and talk, let alone comprehend words that are sung (although, he probably does, and we just don't know it!). But I bought this specifically for his benefit so that he has some tools for Scripture memory when he grows up.

Let me tell you, this is great even for those of us who grew up in the church, memorizing Bible verses for Bible drills, Awana, VBS, etc. Admittedly, it took me a little time to get used to the "children's pop rock" style (hey, I'm an old man at almost-thirty!). But that's a very, very small thing that I got over quite quickly once I realized I started to memorize verses in a snap just by memorizing the song lyrics - what a concept!

The only disappointment is that this is the only album they have (that I know of - anyone care to tell me otherwise?), and the fact that it's only in MP3 format (again, anyone care to tell me otherwise?). I would gladly purchase a physical CD version of this debut effort - even multiple copies to give away as gifts.

I not only recommend this for you and your family, I IMPLORE YOU to purchase the whole album, and check out Seeds Family Worship/Jason Houser while you're at it. This is high-quality Christian music for believers ages 0 through 120!

I first heard about The Rizers on a Children's Ministry website. I ordered the CD within a few days. We were looking for music for the children's puppet team to use. This is fresh, FUN, upbeat music that the kids were completely excited about the first time they heard it. They are still excited about it! A fun way to memorize scripture!
