Electric Revival.

An early 90's rockband from the United Kingdom.
Electric Revival released two CDs:
- Changing Everything (1993
- Learning To Drow (1994)

The CDs of Electric Revival are only released by the band and hard to find.
I wonder how this band sounds.
Has anyone ever listened to music of this band?
Does anyone know where to find samples?

I searched for more information and found a review.

Two years after messrs Sherrington, Allder and Smith turned
turned their backs on previous lives with The River Thieves and 33AD
to plough a new furrow in the Spirit-inspired pasture that is electric Revival. Here it is, their
Here it is their longingly awaited first album. It's an album awash with so many
potential singles (I counted seven of its 10 tracks in that category)
that instead of 'Learning To Drown' it could quite conceivably have
carried the audaciously impertinent 'Greatest Hits' title. There are
certainly few, if any, misses. It's an album as highly emotionally
charged as you'd expect from The Electric Revival, nothing tugging at
the heart strings more than the rousing "Resurrection" (which reduced
me to tears recalling Calvary and everything JC did -and thankfully
still does - for miserable sinners like me) and the very fitting "Call
My Name" finale. Perhaps a little surprisingly, there's also an
impressive melodic element in "Beautiful" and others, showing a
thoughtful and poignant side to a band whose sound is most synonymous
with the word power. The driving rhythms of Darren Allder's bass and an
energetically tight display from sticks man Andy Smith form a solid and
dependable back line, providing the perfect platform for the ever
gregarious Tim Sherrington to grind out some of the most engagingly
familiar guitar riffs in UK Christendom. This dazzling debut will have
every Christian music venue in the country (and a fair share of secular
ones) clamouring for a TER gig, from the smallest of youth groups to
the spectacle of Greenbelt. You won't be alone in taking the plunge
with 'Learning To Drown'.

Never heard of them, but you can buy it at

I found a note that said it had a U2 or The Alarm feel to it.

Now that Electric Revival has my interest I order this CD to listen how this band sounds.
When I don't like it I always can trade or sell it.

Never heard them, or even of them.
Let us know what you think of it Yvonne.
