Some of you may remember a band called Five Iron Frenzy. They were a Christian alternative band that featured some cool brass parts. Unfortunately, they broke up after not becoming all that successful but for those of us that listened to them, they still rock. 38th Parallel is like this but double or triple that. Because as far as I know, they only have one CD, Turn the Tides. This CD is chock full of great lyrics and an overall well done rock sound. There are so many great songs on this CD that I can't really name all of it but say that you have to listen to all of it. Some of them deal with trying to attain God, some about how it feels once you've done that, and some about how it feels to be away from your Lord and Savior and have to come humbly to him on your face. Sound-wise, it's a bit of POD and Pillar combined with a lot deeper message. For some reason, those other bands sometimes sound like their lyrics are kind of tertiary. That is certainly not so for 38th. Anyway, check it out, no excuse not to.
