5.0 out of 5 stars Even atheists will love it, March 19, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Tri-Danielson (Audio CD)

I have never bought a "Christian" album before, but the reviews of the Danielson Famile have been so intriguing that I couldn't help myself. The verdict? If there is a "God," he probably has a fantastic sense of humor. This album made me dance around the kitchen. The morality presented isn't shoved down the listener's throat-- indeed, I was overwhelmed by the band's new verse of "He's Got the Whole World In His Hand," in which Daniel sings, "He's got the junkies and the flunkies in his hand." Well, it sure made me feel better.

I discovered the Danielson Family by accident, and I haven't been the same since! This is so flat-out weird and original that I'm hard pressed to summarize it. Most of the people I know would not like it because it's so strange, and because Daniel Smith's falsetto vocals are not for the aurally challenged. However, I happen to like challenging music, and this music is certainly that! The spiritual message of the music never undermines the creativity and the sonic wonders that await the open minded listener here. In fact, the Christian underpinnings give it an extra "edge." Much of this music made me laugh, some of it really touched me, and all of it made me rub my eyes in disbelief at the stunning originality. "Rubbernecker," "Pottymouth" and "Lord Did You Hear Harrison" are just totally entertaining pieces of music, Christian or not. And for those of you reading this, their album "Tell Another Joke at the Chopping Block" is even more remarkable. So praise the lord if you want, but definitely praise this fearless, endlessly imaginative group, who I recommend heartily, but ONLY to those who like odd, edgy, original rock music. You've been warned!

Smart, sassy, well-directed, and a powerhouse of Christianity.. in a very unique way... Danielson Famile never ceases to amaze me... you HAVE to hear the PottyMouth song, it is soo cool.
