Audio adrenaline!!!

Have you all heard that audio adrenaline is back? Though the line up is much different, the only original member is the bassist, will. One of the new members, you may recognize from dc talk. I'm excited for the return of the band, i saw them on their farewell tour back in 07

When everyone changes except for one member at once, I really don't think they can carry on the name. That name stood for so much, it had a specific genre, but beyond that was a specific attitude that no one else could match. I'm not opposed to bands growing and evolving, I am against bands changing drastically. It would be like if all the members of Def Leppard were changed for the members of Boston. While they could learn all the songs and play them, it wouldn't be the same band. But this is all my opinion.

And it's a good opinion, i think they should have a new name, though it's not for us to decide, at least they have will, and mark stuart's still writing music for them

So do they play all the old AA songs ? What does their new stuff sound like is it similer to AA with all the heavy guitar work ? I would love to hear them can you post a concert tour listing ?

If Will is the only original member in the current line-up, I can't help but think they should have gone with a different name and developed their own unique sound/style. I'm guessing the record company had more than a little to do with them keeping with the AA moniker. They're sure to sell tons of units as AA (well, at least tons more than if they had renamed themselves), and the bottom line is all that counts to the labels. They'll probably sell thousands and thousands more CDs as AA than they would under a different name, even if they promoted themselves as "featuring Will from AA". If someone from DC Talk is in there, they could just as well as promoted themselves as DC Talk, I guess. Same principal.

Don't think I have ever heard of them. Wish them the best though.

Ah, my search to see if we have an Audio Adrenaline thread on these forums has proven fruitful!

My CD copy of Bloom comes in the mail soon, and I plan on purchasing Lift. Good times!

Just listened to the first 4 tracks of Until My Heart Caves In. What a special band. Evidence that rock can be used for praise and worship without sacrificing a single ounce of quality.

I've personally never listened to Audio Adrenaline, but I remember them from the "Golden Age of Christian Rock". They were big in this non-denominational church I was attending for a while when I was in the 9th grade.

I think that the best period for Christian music was the late 90s and very early 00s. Although I may have missed a lot because I haven't kept up with what has been coming out since everything went the screamo route after Underoath hit it big.
