Ahhh, the 90s! What a decade of great music. Truth be told, though this is the decade of my formative years, and therefore my favorite overall decade of Christian music, I’ve put off making this list. Well, better said, I’ve delayed finishing this list for a long time. Many a […]

25 Years Later: Audio Adrenaline, “bloOm”
So—Let’s get the obvious out of the way—how in the world can this album already be twenty-five years old?! It seems like just yesterday I would have been enjoying the sweet sounds of “Never Gonna Be as Big as Jesus” on the radio, rocking out to the delicious riffs of […]
“20 Years Later: Revisiting Audio Adrenaline’s ‘bloOm’ and Newsboys’ ‘Take Me To Your Leader'”
The consumption of music has changed immensely in 20 years. In early 1996, I remember hearing new music from Audio Adrenaline and Newsboys in tiny snippets on their new websites on the internet–which was a surreal and entirely new way of hearing music at the time. I remember hearing how […]
“An Open Letter To Mark Stuart and the Audio A Camp,” by Alex Caldwell
The wholesale lineup changes that Audio Adrenaline has foisted on their fan base in the last few years are frustrating and contribute to the cynicism that many feel towards the music industry (Christian and secular branches alike). It’s been done too many times and a line has to be drawn here. Now, […]
10 Years Later: Audio Adrenaline, “Until My Heart Caves In”
It’s certainly hard to believe that a decade has passed since Audio Adrenaline released what would end up being their final studio album. Until My Heart Caves In was a bittersweet record, as it showcased even less of lead singer Mark Stuart’s vocals than the previous album had (Worldwide), with guitarist Tyler Burkum filling […]
“Christian Music Dream Teams” by John DiBiase
Left to right: Kevin Max, Dave Ghazarian, Jared Byers, Will McGinniss, Jason Walker Well, the cat’s out of the bag! We had been keeping the lid on the recent leaked Audio Adrenaline news at the request of the band, but apparently not everyone around the web got that memo. So with the news […]
We Recommend: Audio Adrenaline, “Some Kind of Zombie”
It’s hard to believe that it has been 14 years since Audio Adrenaline released their hardest rock effort, Some Kind of Zombie. With all of the great music that Mark Stuart and company released over the years, Zombie seems to be a forgotten jewel. After a recent listen (actually two), I was reminded how great the album […]
10 Years Later: Audio Adrenaline, “Hit Parade”
For some time now, I’ve debated on launching this new blog section that will take aim at revisiting music that released ten years ago. It’s interesting to see how much things can change in the world and in life in just a decade and music is a good example of […]
“Gone, But Not Forgotten” by John DiBiase
I know with a music site like this one, it’s crucial to keep up with what’s new each week when things hit retail and online music stores, etc. But the truth is, there is already lots of fantastic music that can be “new” to you that has been out for […]
We Recommend: Audio Adrenaline, “LIFT”
Late last week, while my iTunes library was on shuffle, a selection from Audio Adrenaline‘s catalog came on, and it caused me to stop the random play and just listen to one Audio A album after another. When I got to the pop/rock band’s more mature 2001 effort, LIFT, I was reminded […]
