Absolutely blown away., September 6, 2004
This review is from: Space in Between Us (Audio CD)
This album is incredible. When I purchased this CD I had no clue how much God would touch my heart through listening to Building 429's music. Some of the songs were familiar, such as the title track. But the most amazing thing about this CD is the lyrics. Every song has powerful, moving lyrics that reach right into you and touch your heart. There will be at least one song on this album that describes EXACTLY what you've been feeling - I guarantee it. There's a good balance of upbeat and meditative songs, too. The band also has strong vocals. If you like bands like Switchfoot & Newsboys you will love Building 429.
My personal favorites are "Above it All" (track #2), "Shadow of Angels" (track #6), "No One Else Knows" (track #7; a deeply meditative, very touching piece), & "You Are Loved" (track #11). But it's so hard to pick any favorites because all the songs are wonderful. Typically a CD has one or two standout tracks with the rest falling behind in a mediocre fashion but not so with this CD. All the songs are equally wonderful, which is another thing that makes this album so unique.
If you're looking for music that will stretch you in your faith and force you to really look into yourself...then this is the CD for you. Highly, HIGHLY recommended!!

A Can't Miss From Start to Finish, February 21, 2005
This review is from: Space in Between Us (Audio CD)
Wow.
That about sums up Buliding 429's first full-length CD. A mainstream sound with insight and depth (can it be). These guys were blessed by GOD with incredible musical talents. They write thought provoking, praiseful lyrics with a sound almost anyone can find enjoyable. Vertical Horizon and Goo Goo Dolls immediately come to mind for sound alikes from the mainstream genre. They would sell millions of CD's if they spent their time singing about love lost etc.. None the less they should sell plenty to the ever growing CCM market. This is one of the few CD's I own which can be played start to finish without skipping a song. (However, I do find myself replaying several songs over and over again). Put on this CD and you will find yourself singing every song. Fans of the above mentioned bands should instantly put this on their must-listen-to list. Do yourself a favor and treat yourself to this CD.

One of the best ever CCR groups, June 20, 2005
This review is from: Space in Between Us (Audio CD)
This CD is really touching. The lyrics have touched me deeply personally due to some things happening in my life at the moment. Building 429 are a contemporary christian rock group that have some soft rock songs mixed with alt rock and a few heavier rock beats. Overall this CD is terrific and a must for any listener who has liked Across The Sky, Sky Harbour or Casting Crowns. The listener will be able to feel the emotion behind the lyrics and the beauty of the music will take you away. All the songs are melodic and easily sung too. All the songs were good but the absolute stand-outs for me were 'Glory Defined' the hit of this album followed by 'The Space Between Us', 'Back To Me, and lastly 'Never Look Away'.
It is the best to date CCR album I have listened too.
