I've mentioned my appreciation of Christian music a few times here and there, but I think some clarification is in order. When I talk about good Christian music, I mean passionate stuff like Namur and Isolation Years or 16 Horsepower and even the Louvin Brothers. It's important to note that except for the latter, all of these acts consider themselves musicians first, Christians second. The mission is to make music, not necessarily spread the gospel, though inevitably their convictions are reflected in the music. Want an example of what not to do? Listen to today's mp3 from Ella Rouge. This is exactly the kind of empty, vapid music that gives Christian rock such a horrid name. If the Holy Spirit moves you in profound ways, the music should reflect that. Hiring a gospel choir to double the final chorus is no substitute for real emotion. The first couple songs on their record aren't so bad - overproduced and generic yeah, but listenable. I probably wouldn't change the channel if they came on the radio. But this song? Terrible. Painful even. Download at your own risk. Some trivia: The band features the vocals of one Ludwig Andersson, son of Benny from Abba. Though technically proficient in every way, I feel his talents could be put to much better use.
Ella Rouge - Manhattan
The Rajaton and Sinfonia Lahti (one of Finland's best-known symphonies) will release their Abba tribute collaboration on November 1. The title of the record will be very straightforward: "Rajaton sings Abba with Sinfonia Lahti"
Pitchfork on the latest from Radio Dept.: http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/record-reviews/r/radio-dept/pet-grief.shtml
Why do reviewers still feel the need to reference Abba when discussing Swedish music? Can we please put an end to this?
