I know there was some confusion last round about the bands, so this time I'm going to do a short bio for both artists...You may remember Mourning September from the song "April Dreams" that I featured a while back. "Glorietta" is a nice alternative rock song about how God will never leave us.If you haven't heard of Norma Jean, they are a Christian metal/hardcore band from Atlanta, Georgia. Brutal volume. However, in the song "Memphis Will Be Laid To Waste", Norma Jean has Aaron Weiss of mewithoutYou do a special guest appearance.

Family Force 5 "Never Let Me Go"
2008-02-17 04:33:00 As promised, here's my review of Family Force 5's newest music video, "Never Let Me Go", which debuted yesterday on TVU Music Television:To be totally honest, when the video ended, I was disappointed. Before you stop reading, let me explain. I was expecting something like "Love Addict" or "Kountry Gentleman". You know, raw crunk-rock. The animal-headed-humanoids just wasn't what I was expecting.However, since yesterday, I've decided that the video really was pretty cool. The song is one of my all-time favorites, the funky camera trick was pretty cool, and what I thought was a deep moral point was really Family Force 5 being their usual random selves. And the last last twenty seconds are just awesome. All told, I'd give it 4 1/2 out of 5 stars.Now that you know what I think, it's time for you to tell me what you thought. Please, leave a comment with your 2 cents. Tell me I'm wrong. Tell me it's "2 kwl and ff5 = g8t". Just say something! :o)The Free Christian Music Blog
Free Children 18:3 Song
2008-02-17 02:44:00 Phrases like Christians, Home-schoolers, siblings, rockers, Gothic-looking, and Minnesotan can all be applied nicely to a lot of bands. But there's only one band that's all 6 at the same time. That band is Children 18:3.Children 18:3 is offering their new song "LCM" as a free download over at AbsolutePunk.net. The song is from their brand new self-titled CD, and is a bit hard to describe. Not as catchy as "You Know We're All So Fond of Dying". But still, it's a good song.-Download "LCM" at AbsolutePunk-(And if you can't get enough Children 18:3, you can check out another free song from them here!)The Free Christian Music Blog More About: Song

2008-02-15 20:50:00 Free music from FreeFuge.com today. They have a page on their website specially for free music, and to be blunt, it's awesome. It looks like the selection is a mix of songs from FreeGotee.com and FreeMvS.com, with a little Sparrow Records thrown in. Of course, that's not saying much unless you know which bands are on which labels. So, I'll explain the selection.It feature's Ayiesha Woods' "Happy", Bethany Dillon's "Top of the World", Britt Nicole's current single "Set The World On Fire", Family Force 5's "Supersonic", John Reuben's catchy "Good Evening", Relient K's "More Than Useless", Sanctus Real's number one hit "Don't Give Up", the southern rock "Temptation Come My Way" from The Showdown.
