Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

More a showman than a recording artist, Carman continues to be one of Christian music's top-drawing concert acts--he sold out the 55,000-seat Houston Astrodome in 1997 by himself. His sense for the theatrical carries over in R.I.O.T.: Righteous Invasion of Truth, a 1996 release that proves to be quite entertaining. Catch the clever airline motif in "God Is Exalted," the hip-hop edge of "R.I.O.T.," or the B-52's-ish "No Monsters" and you will hear a man that keeps his musical boundaries open. Whether it's old-time gospel, rap, rock, or even the countryish "Step of Faith," with Ricky Skaggs, Carman and producers Brown Bannister and Tommy Sims yield a lively and worthwhile release. --Michael Lyttle

5.0 out of 5 stars Carman is awesome!, August 6, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Riot (Audio Cassette)

Carman is an awesome Chrisitan artist who doesn't try to veil the gospel message or water it down. In this day and age where it is not politically correct to talk about, much less sing about, the name of Jesus, it is refreshing to know that Carman has the backbone to boldly proclaim the Lordship of Jesus Christ! My wife and I, along with our three young sons, all love to listen to Carman and his music.
I thank God for Carman and appreciate both his humility and his openess to the Holy Spirit! Oh, and by the way, this CD rocks!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best of all, October 20, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: R.I.O.T.: Righteous Invasion of Truth (Audio CD)

This has to be one of, if not THE best Christian CD's on the market today. The songs are inspirational (Whiter than snow - my sins have been forgiven and forgotten by the Father and There is a God - Scientific evidence that God DOES exist). I've met Carman (volunteered on the RIOT tour). He is very concerned with lost souls in this world. His talent is Holy Spirit driven and, as an artist, he will continue to achieve great things for God's kingdom!! Praise His Holy Name!!!

Carman has always (from as early on as I can remember) sang a lot of songs that have stories to them. I think that's what's kept me listening to his music all this time-besides the most obvious fact that his music ALWAYS directly glorifies God, and he's got a good, strong voice. While I'm not into listening to his softer ballads most of the time, they're still uplifting and worth it to hear the creativity in his story-songs.
