Avalon Reborn cd Review,
By
This review is from: Reborn (Audio CD)
This is a great cd! This anointed group and cd, will encourage you and lift your spirit. This cd has relevant and good music. The lyrics are great! I also found the music entertaining and it keeps my attention. I like all the songs on this cd unlike other cds I have bought where I only liked one or two songs. You will be blessed. I don't get tired of listening to these songs! They are catchy and great songs by themselves. The songs have great messages. This cd has helped me grow closer to God, grow in my walk/relationship with God, and want to know God in a new way. This is a different sound for Avalon, and I don't know if Avalon will continue with this type of sound in the future. But it is a refreshing, change of pace from their last cds. The music is not too rocky in my opinion even if it sounds a little rockish from the song clips. The "Rockiness" (don't know if that is a word) does not overpower the music. The new members blend really well. Some of the past Avalon members left for various reasons. Jody McBrayer had to leave because of cardiac problems and Melissa Greene left because she felt God had called her to be a music minister and serve at a church. Every person of the current Avalon lineup has a great voice. These are some of the best voices I have heard of or seen anywhere, including cds, concerts, tv specials, etc... They are amazing voices. I do have one thing I wish was added to the cd. I do miss a ballad soulful type song sung by Janna like "When the Time Comes", "Can't Live a Day", "I Don't Want to Go", etc... But the song "Destined" on this cd comes really close. I highly and strongly recommend you buy this cd if you like Contemporary Christian music, or even just good music. This is an enjoyable cd. This is an A+ effort by Avalon. I give it five stars.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Reborn (Audio CD)
I have been a devoted Avalon fan since "In a Different Light." I've adjusted through the member changes, and somehow just kept loving Avalon more and more. I have to say my all time favorite is "Creed." So, I knew this CD would be different - and it is. My first reaction on hearing it was sadness. Don't get me wrong - If it would have had a different artist name on the cover I would have said it was a great CD. But for AVALON (my "pet" group) it was disappointing at first. I like the songs and I like the new "rockier" feel the other reviewers mentioned. However, I simply cannot get over losing the Jody/Janna dynamics - I guess that is what really made the group for me. Sadly, I am afraid the glory days are over for them. I will continue to be a fan (although a somewhat quieter fan) and will enjoy this CD, but it will not make my list of favorites.

A New Avalon,
This review is from: Reborn (Audio CD)
When I inserted the CD into the player I was prepared to hear something new. This is not your fathers Avalon. Compared to the early almost acoustic sound relying on tight harmonies between the singers I find this to be more of a rock feel. This is Avalon in a much more agressive tonal mode. They tight harmonies are there. The singers often trade off lines. The characteristic Avalon sound is present. But this album is one that almost seems to want to expand its audience to those who enjoy a more rock feel to their worship music. The final cut in the album is Holy which I think is destined to become a great worship anthem. If you like an edgy approach to the tonality of your worship music you will love this album. This is certainly Avalon with an edge. I highly recommend it.
