5.0 out of 5 stars A MASTERPIECE, January 7, 2006

By	Danny - See all my reviews

INTRO: For a long time I was turned off my popular Christian music. Even though I'm 25, I tend to lean toward the old, traditional hymns rather than the new, contemporary style. I've always thought the old hymns had more "substance" than the "you, you, you" of contemporary worship. I'm talking about the vaguely worded songs with the artist's beautiful face taking up the entire cover--the type of songs that you could play on public radio and not know who the artist is singing about.

REVIEW: I told a friend the way I felt about Christian music and she recommended to me Shane & Shane's "Psalms". One year later, it has to be one of my Top 20 albums of all time (all genres of music). First of all, "Psalms" is a collection of songs inspired by various books of the Bible, especially the Book of Psalms, so the lyrics are rich and artistic. Shane & Shane pretty much took a couple of guitars and picked out some verses that express the original writer's message. Shane & Shane sing like they are genuinely pouring out their souls before the LORD. As musicians, their guitars are swift and clean while their voices complement each other. The album flows from one song to the next, making it difficult to find a place to stop. The best part is that I find myself focusing on GOD's character (just like the traditional hymns) instead of be-bopping to a catchy tune.

The idea behind "Psalms" is really simple, but the outcome is quite magnificent. I would highly recommend it to anyone who's frustrated with popular Christian music or just looking for a great worship album for encouragement.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the greatest Christian CDs ever, September 23, 2006

By	Stevan Henning (Mebane, North Carolina) - See all my reviews

I was introduced to Shane and Shane about two years ago, and at first, it was a little hard to get used to their style. Once I sat down,however, and started listening to the words to their music, I was challenged and blessed spiritually. In my opinion there is very little Christian music out there that can compare, lyrically speaking, to this album.

Another great part of this CD is AMAZING guitar playing. I have been playing the guitar for many years, leading worship in church for about five or six of them. Shane and Shane frequently do stuff that just causes my jaw to drop.

Buy this CD, it is definitely worth it...

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally, quality worship music, May 23, 2005

By	lefty_5 - See all my reviews

Shane and Shane have created an intelligent, musically stunning, and heartfelt look into the Psalms. This is some of the only good Christian music that is out there right now. The guitar rhythms and screaming vocals create a sound like none other.
