After decades of shaking the roof off of arenas around the world and rocking our socks off, Michael Sweet is back with his latest solo album, Him. Taking an unexpected turn in his own career, but not in today's world of Christian music, Sweet's latest release is a work of classic hymns. In a market saturated with artists giving their own take on the book that sits next to Bibles in pews across the world, could Sweet offer us a raucous dive into it or is this simply another bland repetition of the songs of yesteryear?
The first thing to be noticed are Sweet's undeniable vocals. He probably carries one of the most recognizable voices in Christian music. The one disappointment was the fact that you don't hear him soar up to the highest of high notes that we're familiar with hearing with Stryper. It's very evident that Sweet is into and feeling what he's singing. However, the experience feels a little hollow when you're expecting him to blow you out of the water with something vocally and it just doesn't happen....
