Hmm...
Their FB page refers to them as Christian "beautycore" The beauty part is right, although I'm not convinced of the "core" part. They're actually pretty good, but men being men I imagine their fanbase could just as likely be tone deaf and their CDs would still sell.

I am guessing they are embracing the "core" title based solely on the minute use of growl vocals and breakdowns without solos.
If they could put in some guitar solos, they come off as more metal than "core". I would definitely buy a full album by these kids if I knew where to get it. I like them better than Flyleaf or Fireflight. The vocals are clear and pleasant to listen to and the message is upfront. The band is tight to be so young.

They have both a 6 song EP and a full length that you can download from Amazon and iTunes.

I bought their CD direct from their site a couple months back when I mentioned them here. Clearly, I like them since I buy so few albums. I should hope they are tight since they are sisters!

I must have missed your thread. I wish I had seen it, as I would have bought their stuff then. I am definitely impressed.

It was buried in the thread about good but mostly unknown bands. I went trolling through reverbnation and found them and several others I added to that thread as well (and a lot I didn't).

Well, I take that back. I only mentioned Drive Thru Society in that thread. I just invited Gary to like GFM and at least one other female fronted band I'd found near the same time via FB.

Found them completely by accident when they were responding on Seventh Day Slumber's FB page. I've been playing them on Amazon music at work. I especially dig this song:

I just listened to that yesterday (from the link on your facebook page). I dig the song as well.

I only have one of their songs, from a compilation album several years ago now, but I've watched several of their videos. I like their stuff. Love that their faith is lyrically evident like someone mentioned.
