 | Tending Both Sides (CD) By: Ethereal
Availability: Usually Ships in 24 Hours... Label: Ethereal Music |
Bluegrass, rock, world, and pop styles make up this unique yet refreshing album, Tending Both Sides. In an effort to simply make good and enjoyable music that conveys Truth and inspires thought, Ethereal teamed up with some friends to ensure that those things would be true of their second full length project. In a day when Truth is underrated and independent music seldom heard, Ethereal hopes this project will be an authentic source to obtain both. Our Comment Average Customer Review: 4.42857142857 out of 5 Rating: 5 Review By: keely This is a WONDERFUL cd....from the opening seconds til the end. Soulful and passionate- a gorgeous expression of praise. Rating: 5 Review By: Josh This is powerful music created by great musicians who have a unique and original sound. Their lyrics are full of rich theological truth, and combinding that with the bands musical abilities keeps them playing in my house all the time ... Rating: 2 Review By: I love Ethereal, but this album is mainly a recreation of their first album, which in my opinion, is stellar, and should have remained untouched. I believe they were trying to make the songs sound more full, more professional, but now it sounds like a 2nd rate pop album. I wish Ethereal remained true to its raw sound that originally set them apart. I was disappointed to only get a few new songs on the purchase too. I do not mean to be negative, because Changed the Same is one of my favorite albums of all time - & I'm simply offering my opinion on Tending Both Sides. It's the simple arrangements that do not distract from the powerful God-centered message of Ethereal that I love. Rating: 4 Review By: I am a follower of Ethereal, from the "early days" and I absolutely love their sound! I too wish there had been more new songs, but love the new CD just the same! For the newbies, who don't own the first cd ~ you will be wanting more after you listen to Tending Both Sides! Rating: 5 Review By: michelle this is a tremendous CD -- loved it from start to finish! Rating: 5 Review By: Nancy Love this album! From the first strains of haunting violin to the jungle drums in "The Places We'll Go" every song surprises and delights. Connie Skellie could sing "Happy Birthday" and I could listen to her all day, not to mention her truly unique violin riffs. Great vocals throughout--different on each song, from Stokes Skellie's pure tones in two songs that are pure worship, "We Will Sing," and "Great is the Lord" to Corey Nolen's earthy "Coming Round," and throughout you get Ethereal's signature blow- you-away harmonies. Ethereal makes great music, and for people like me who want meaty, meaningful lyrics, you definitely get your money's worth there too. These songs are written and sung by wonderful musicians whose passion is the gospel--you don't want to miss this CD. p.s. check out their website for the meaning of the album title--it's worth the read. Rating: 5 Review By: Dan Presley I can't get enough of this awesome CD. It's one of the most unique CD's, I have ever heard. Every song on here is wonderful and awesome. Hope this one does very well. |
