I Am Empire- Kings
This past summer, Tooth & Nail signed a band called I Am Empire to their roster. I had been familiar with the band for about a year prior to that and knew they would have some serious potential on a label like this one, so I was excited. This week their debut released at last, and I was very interested to give it a few listens.
I Am Empire’s sound is one filled with heavy guitars and deep...
Here's the deal.

Welcome to 2011...
Hey, everybody. I know it’s kind of been 2011 for about a month now, but I just wanted announce some updates that are being made to Christian Rock OBSESSION.

But here are...

At first, this list started out as a top ten list. Then I realized there was no way I could summarize my favorite songs of last year with only a ten point list—it was going to have to be bigger. A lot bigger. So here I give you… my favorite forty songs of 2010 (in order).
1. Number One Gun- “Forest”
2. House of Heroes- “Love Is For The Middle Class”

UPdate 1/5
