Editorial Reviews

Product Description

In the six short years since the band formed in a dingy dorm room in Wichita, Kansas, Pillar has become a rock force to be reckoned with. And while the band has earned its fair share of accolades and admiration, Pillar is ready to set the record straight with their latest The Reckoning.

3.0 out of 5 stars A Listenable Step Backwards From Where Do We Go From Here, October 6, 2006
By Sky (New York) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)      
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Where Do We Go From Here? Apparently backwards.

The Reckoning is a bit above average compared to some of the more generic Nu Metal plaguing the Rock radio airways these days, but The Reckoning is far below the high standard that Pillar set with their 2004 release Where Do We Go From Here.

Gone are song after song of unique sounding, head bobbin', melodic, kick-ass, hard rock gems like Frontline, Dirty Little Secret, Underneath It All and Bring Me Down. Gone are standout tracks with intricate beats, intricate guitarwork and anthem choruses that you can sing along to.

In are songs where some you can't even tell the track has changed, the guitarwork is mediocre, and they mostly sound like all the other Nu Metal on the radio.

Pillar does indeed put together a listenable 13 songs. But "listenable" versus their last release's "rockin'" classification is a downgrade. Rob Beckley's singing in is mostly clear on The Reckoning and you can understand almost every word. However, in a shift from the last release, Rob uses an angry growl redundantly on the first 5 songs that seems really out of place.

The Reckoning is just absent of a really standout track, while Where Do We Go From Here was full of them. So all in all, The Reckoning is a disappointment for me...an average effort.

If you're new to Pillar, be sure to pick up Where Do We Go From Here with (or instead of) The Reckoning. Where Do We Go From Here Pillar fans will probably see what I mean; devoted fans will just give me a NO vote.

4.0 out of 5 stars Underrated, December 31, 2008
I don't know why people like this CD so much less than Where Do We Go From Here and For the Love of the Game. It's consistent and has some real standouts: "Awake," "When Tomorrow Comes," "Tragedy," and "Resolution." This is just as good as any of their other CDs, but it's sadly overlooked.

5.0 out of 5 stars Church with Pillar, March 16, 2009
I just recently moved to Oklahoma and started a new Church because I met a nice girl who cut my hair and she invited us to her Church, but the really awesome part is her husband is the new drummer for Pillar. I attend LifeChurch.TV and I have only purchased this CD of Pillar's but after experiencing what I did this last Sunday when Rob performed in the live band there at the Church it was a truly amazing, and gave me a new feeling for God! He has changed my opinion of his music too because I wasn't very happy with this CD, but after listening to him sing at the church it got me to purchase For Love of the Game, and I can't wait to get it and listen to it! He is an amazing Christian and so is the rest of his band. I definitely recommend Pillar for your Alternative Christan Music listening needs.
