5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent 2nd Album by DecembeRadio, November 3, 2008

DecembeRadio is one of the best new "southern" rock bands to emerge in the last few years along with NEEDTOBREATHE, Grey Holiday, Jackson Waters and Remedy Drive, all favorites of mine. If you are in your 30's or older like me, then this Grammy nominated and Dove Award winning band (Best Rock Album 2006) will also remind you of playing air guitar (we didn't have Guitar Hero) along with legendary classic rock bands Lynyrd Skynyrd, Kansas, Boston, Bad Company, AC/DC and Kiss with their guitar crunching rock (think "All Right Now" by Free) and also their beautiful rock ballads (think "Waiting For A Girl Like You" by Foreigner).

Satisfied is an excellent 2nd album by a great rock band. I would welcome an opportunity to see this band live as the energy just resonates from every song. The opener Better Man is a great example of straight up rock with a great message. The next track, Satisfy Me is one of the best southern rock songs I've heard in the last 10 years. Amazing anthem and guitar work. Believer and For Your Glory are a couple more of the stand-out songs to me. Both are anthemic and personal and have excellent worship lyrics. Gasoline and Falling For You keep the rock going, and the album closes with the excellent ballad and hit song Find You Waiting. For me this album just misses my top 10 of 2008 and I score it 90% out of 100%, 4 1/2 stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars Southern fried christian rock, September 11, 2008

With their sophomore release "Satisfied", Decemberadio has managed to inject another dose of Southern Rock into Christian rock music. At times agressive, other times mellow, this album is chock full of tasty and thoroughly enjoyable Christian rock! The fast paced "Satisfy Me" is filled with a frenetic energy not found on many other albums, and decidedly Southern Rock like in tone. I Love It! You could easily hear many of the songs on this album played right along classics such as "Sweet Home Alabama", or even "Freebird". Fans of southern rock, will surely enjoy this album from start to finish.
Now, all this does not in the least detract from the message in the music. Their love of God is right up front, and unmistakeable, and quite refreshing. There are many Christian rock efforts that are less forthright in their message, but that is not the case with "Satisfied". It puts a smile on my face just thinking about the joy, passion, energy, and love presented in the music of Decemberadio.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good, but a little bit of a letdown after debut, March 17, 2009

Admittedly, I run the risk of sounding like a disgruntled "stuck in the past" listener when I compare this album to their self-titled debut. But my problem isn't that they changed their sound, it's that they changed their production values. The debut had a nice raw sound (not garage-style raw, but live-in-the-studio raw) that had a lot of life. This album sounds a little too slick and overproduced for my taste. There's no doubt these guys are incredibly talented. There are some really good songs on here that I imagine would sound great in a live setting, but they get buried beneath the radio-friendly mix. Which is ironic, because in an interview, the guys said they wanted to make songs that they could easily reproduce live. Apart from the Gospel choir on "Love Found Me" I think that honor goes to the first album hands-down.

I honestly don't have a problem with a band modifying their sound so that they don't make the same album time after time. But, when you've got a southern rock band that suddenly sounds grit-free, there's a problem.
