Great album! Lots of old hymns done in Newsboys style and a new song (title track) which is incredibly good. Anyone else got this gem?

I bought it but got it new for $5 at a discount Christian store around Black Friday. I like it, but it isn't a big player for me.

For me all those old hymns in Newboy style are not very interesting.
I'm sure others love this.

I love the old hymns, and I really like the current vocalist in Newsboys. He's got a real nice tone to the way he sings. It's win win for me

I dig each incarnation of Newsboys. My favorite was obviously the earlier days when they were wild and experimenting with different sounds. My least fav is all the cookie cutter Praise and Worship albums... they're good, but sound much like everyone elses P&W albums. That's why I'm a little hesitant on snatching up this latest album.
I think since the band has changed SO many line-ups and sounds, that they should've changed their names at each phase... like "Newsboys 1.0" "Newsboys 2.0" "Newsboys 2.5" and so on.

I lost interest in Newsboys when furler left the band. I played the album once and didn't like it. Just the same old 're-invention' of the hymns.
