New GX Project Coming 2015

Good title!  'Raze'!

I am a GX/X-Sinner fan. I did the world premier of 'Train Wreck' from the last GX album on my radio show & even did an interview with Glen Thomas. It was great, but I seriously doubt I'll be playing a song called 'She's Got Balls'. And yes, I'm an AC/DC fan as well, but I wouldn't play their stuff on a Christian show either. I am interested in hearing the new album though.

I agree with you Kelly.

If it is better than the last one then I will be interested. The first one was the better of the two. Something missing from the second one, I never play it anymore. Curious to hear some tunes from this before I preorder it blindly like I did the last one.

Preorders now available for those interested. I would like to hear more samples first. And when you go to the website it is very outdated, it has the "new song" Train Wreck.

As I said at the CMR, I think some of Rex's Christian fans may be a little alienated by his refusal and attitude he cops when asked about lyric sheets.  While it is his business what he records, he is still counting on fans of X-Sinner to support this.  At least share the lyrics in a PDF for those that order as his vocal style isn't the easiest to understand.  Heck, I can understand Brian Johnson and he's definitely not doing music to glorify Jesus.  AC/DC gives the lyrics to their songs.

Don't know what to think about Rex refusing to send the fans of GX a PDF of the lyrics.
I agree with Kelly too.

Maybe the song in question is about a girl who likes soccer? My prom date played on the soccer team when I was in high school. She definitely had (soccer) balls.



Or maybe it is about a girl jumping on balls

Hmm. wonder what the song 'Just Got Screwed" is about? Starting to look more like an AC/DC album I kinda think fans looking for "Christian" lyrics will be sorely disappointed and maybe even shocked... This could turn out to be the the best AC/DC album AC/DC didn't make..but with no lyrics available  time will tell...I noticed on their facebook they are calling themselves a mainstream band (I guess they are like stryper...a mainstream band with a christian in the band..sorry guys, I couldn't resist) anyway, looking forward to hearing it...

My issue isn't the lyrics its the songs themselves. The first release was awesome but there wasn't anything memorable about the second one. That's why I want to hear it before blindly buying it like the last one.

GX Project could lose a lot of their fans if the lyrics when from more Christian in nature to are switched to definite mainstream if some of these songs are about what they would seem to be by the song titles.

I hope GX Project will soon post some samples of their 3 album.
I'm curious about the songs.

Yes, me too. I feel like I got burned on the last album. I preordered it on iTunes and it was a clunker. I just assumed it would be as good or better than the first and it wasn't.

We've to wait patiently MikeInFla.

This will certainly be a "listen before you buy" album for me.

As mentioned on CMR, "She's Got Balls" isn't an ACDC cover song. I assume the title is referring to a girl being tough. Just Got Screwed is about being ripped off, I am sure a lot of people use that term, without even realizing what it means, like saying something "sucks".

I don't know what the lyrics are about, but I think the titles were picked on purpose to be provocative. That's Rex. Honestly, if Rex wrote Christian lyrics, he would probably sell about 5 of these, and is trying to get music from a Christian perspective in the hands of people that wouldn't normally listen to it in the first place. Not trying to defend his actions, just stating a reality.

I have no problem with that approach at all. My problem with the last one is that the songs were not as memorable as the first album which was fantastic. So I blindly bought the second one without hearing a single tune (other than Train Wreck) assuming it would be just as good. It wasn't and I played it a few times and never again. So for me anyway I am waiting on some more samples to be released before buying something that may only get played a time or two and then put away on a shelf to collect dust.

Rex said in an interview recently that old Zion fans would be happy with the new album.

You are welcome at CHM NoOneIsHere.

That must be very good news. I'm an old Zion fan.

Welcome NOIH! I am still hoping for some samples of the songs. Will give those a listen then decide if I will get it or not.

That's promising news.

Thanks guys....

He also told me directly that he avoids the "higher Udo -like vocals " and goes a lot lower.

So I don't really know how the 2 statements work together, but I am anxious to find out.

His vocal range on the last X-Sinner and previous 2 GX Project releases have been much more like Udo from Accept than what we were used to with Zion or "Peace Treaty".  I am hoping that this means that he is dropping back to what we loved to start with.  He was a lot easier to understand when he sang in a lower tone.
