As one of the hardest-working bands in Christian music, deserve a break. Since their 2000 debut, the Latin pop/rock powerhouse has been toiling tirelessly across the country, playing hundreds of dates a year and wowing audiences and critics alike with its unique mix of worshipful lyrics and a sonic melting pot that would make modern-day proud. Despite the recognition and a couple of radio hits, a breakthrough album still eludes them. , 's sixth attempt at one, sees the Latin brothers scaling things back a bit -- it's easily their most low-key effort yet. It's a more demure approach, perhaps reflective of frontman ' new lot in life -- his marriage to Christian pop singer and her pregnancy with the couple's first child while the album was being recorded. With his bachelorhood behind him, it's almost as if now sounds older and wiser, but don't mistake this for an energy slump or musical complacency: is still rife with deft musicianship and rhythmic urgency -- remain faith-based music's version of and by way of and one-off world music beasts . The only thing they do different here is entertain their adult contemporary side more pronouncedly, as evidenced in the poignant title track or the almost ethereal When not balladeering or offering straightforward pop anthems, stick to what they do best, namely, explosive, edge-of-your-seat aural fiestas, but the life of the party isn't only the horns, the searing guitar solos, or the percussive breakdowns, but the songwriting as well, which happens to be some of the group's most thoughtful thus far. It all amounts to another strong effort from these mainstays of the Christian touring circuit -- more toned-down, yes, but coming from a band that doesn't really know how to make a bad album, that's not necessarily a bad thing. ~ Andree Farias
