NFN Review :
Caspar and his band are back with 14 new tracks on this latest release. With great guitar rhythms and solos, plus the added bonus of bass, violin, and driving drum beats, there’s much to admire. ‘Change is Coming; starts things off, and what a start it is, too! The music pounds from the speakers, while Caspar and Renae Truex take the vocals. ‘Flat or Round’ looks at conspiracy theories like “is the earth round?” and other deceits of the world. In answer, Caspar sings; “Jesus said, only believe (in Him); Don’t be deceived.” The track ends with a trademark McCloud solo, as good as anything he’s produced previously. Rock praise is the feel of the mid-paced ‘There’s Nothing You Can’t Do,’ while ‘The Watchers’ speeds things up again, with a distinctly 90’s sounding composition. There’s a definite message to beware of corruption in our world on ‘Anomalies’. Warning of things like our air and water being altered, as well as the use ill-use of nano-techonolgy – the song tells that “When Christ returns; He’ll unleash His fury and His wrath; They will see all this time they chose the wrong path; Their torment will never cease in hell; For globalists it won’t end well.” This was a favourite of mine, and sees both guitar and violin providing great sounds. Just when you think that things can’t get any better, the band treats us to the more melodic ‘Warriors of Prayer.’ It’s one of those songs that drives along, with a great chorus that you’ll soon be singing along to. After listening to Caspar and his band over the last few years, it’s wrong to compare the overall sound to anyone else. They’ve certainly got their own, very distinctive sound. Who would think that a violin would work so well with a guitar led rock band? Caspar McCloud Band do just that, and it’s a joy to hear. Never more so, than on the terrific track ‘Strange Fire,’ were the musical marriage comes to the fore once more. Lyrically, as always, Caspar gives you both thoughts to consider, and hope in Jesus, the way, the truth, and the life. The latter is succinctly packaged in the acoustic title track. Harmonies are spot-on, and delicately sung. Similarly, the closing ‘Wedding Song’ is performed in a finely produced style. It goes without saying that this is not just “another” rock album. 10/10.
