Artist Of The Week - Anchor & Braille

It's been about three years since we've gotten an album from Anchor & Braille, the indie side project of Anberlin's Stephen Christian, but this week, on July 31st, the band's sophomore album will be released. The Quiet Life is a collection of haunting melodies and catchy percussion, certainly a maturation of sound since 2009's Felt. The Quiet Life is available now in stores and online through Tooth & Nail Records.

Artist: The Letter Black
Album: Breaking The Silence EP
Release Date: 9/22/09
Label: Tooth and Nail Records
The Letter Black is a 5 - piece rock band from Uniontown, Pennsylvania (fifth member of the band not featured on cover) . They are female - fronted along the likes of Fireflight and Flyleaf. They will be on tour this fall on the Awake & Alive Tour with Skillet and Hawk Nelson. Breaking The Silence opens with "Moving On" a song about forgiveness. It does come off bitter some though, but does state "I forgave you and now I'm moving on". The next track is titled "Hanging On By A Thread". It is a great rock song about always hanging on to God no matter what. The album's style changes to more of an acoustic pop song on "Best Of Me" which is very surprising. It is still a good track in my opinion though. "Collapse" features some great bass and guitar and is a little reminiscent "Hanging On By A Thread". It states that we can't live without Jesus as our Saviour and has a very strong message. "All Of Me" is probably the hardest rocker on the album. It opens with murky sounding bass and is sort of dark. "Perfect" opens with a great guitar riff. It has more of a jazzy sound to the verses than breaks into a hard rocking chorus . It talks about how Jesus is perfect and will always love us and be with us. This is a great introduction to The Letter Black. All I can do is just wait for the day of the full length debut from them early next year!
Album Highlights: Hanging On By A Thread, Best Of Me, Perfect
Rating: 8/10 Great intro for The Letter Black! Their full length debut is coming in early 2010.
