Synopsis

Album Description
Small-town sensation Half Past Forever have finally broken onto the national scene with their new album. The draw for new listeners will no doubt be American Idol phenom, Chris Sligh, but don't be surprised to find his equally astonishing flair for songwriting and production. Even if the songs here weren't already his own, Chris's smooth control and distinctive, urgent ownership would make you believe he was spinning these wonders out of thin air. Backed by accomplished guitarists Adam Fisher and Cole Edmonson, Chris's gifts have the platform they've needed to let loose and shine.

CD Reviews

It's More Than Just The Hair
Flap Jackson | State Road, NC | 01/10/2008
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Since I started getting into the phenomenon known as American Idol back when Carrie Underwood was singing, I had major trouble picking somebody I liked. I only liked Carrie because she looked better than Bo Bice, she also had the better name. The next season wasn't much better, Chris Daughtry was OK, but most of his songs were unknown to me.



Then, this past season came, from his audition Chris Sligh had me hooked with his sense of humour and unique voice. He sang MuteMath, and covered the legend that is dc Talk. However, America wasn't sold, he was voted off early. However, he's back with his hometown band, and he bring his vocals, and his approach to music with him, but keeps his love for God. The result is one of the best debuts in a long time.



"Hero", "Know" "In A Moment", are just of few of the amazing highlights off this album. Let's face it, there is little originality in the world of Christian pop and rock these days. To cure your summer music blues, to find something refreshing and original, look no further, you found it.

"Came across this by accident when I was looking to see what Chris Sligh was doing since AI. I had just heard Blake's CD and was a bit dissappointed by I love love this cd I listen to it a couple of times a day. If you like Chris Daughtry's CD this is a must buy."
