Passion - Our Love Is Loud

Its hard to go wrong on a worship-oriented release that features Chris Tomlin, Charlie Hall, and David Crowder. That's why this Passion concert CD is a slam-dunk winner. It's accessible rock music performed in an electric, live environment, with a vertical lyrical focus. Tomlin's penchant for excelling in a concert setting is once again defined through his energetic delivery of "The Famous One" as well as covers of "God of Wonders" and Delirious's "My Glorious." Hall's quieter "Prepare the Way" and "Sweep Me Away" provide welcome relief from the high-energy release openers. Crowder rings true with his trademark "Our Love Is Loud" and a delightful reworking of the hymn "Come Thou Fount." Appropriately enough, the release ends with Tomlin's "Dance in the River," a rocker that is steeped in U2 soundalike guitars, culling just enough influence from the Edge to ignite the crowd into a frenzy. --Michael Lyttle Amazon.com

Perfect Mix of Crowder and Tomlin

Our Love is Loud is the first of the Passion Cd's that I have listened to, but I am very familiar with Crowder and Tomlin. In fact, they are two of my favorite worship bands along with Sonic Flood. This CD has all of the great worship songs I am familiar with like "Come thou Fount" and "My Glorious" done in unique and new ways. I would highly recommend this CD to anyone who likes Chris Tomlin or the David Crowder Band as you become a fan of every song on the CD after a few times through. You will find yourself rocking out to God wherever you are. April 1, 2005

awesome worship

ive listened to many worship bands and everything passion has to offer as of now, but this album has to be the greatest worship album ive ever heard. If its not the best than its tied for first with their other album, ancient hymns; modern and new!!! If you love passion you will also love Chris Tomlin, especially "Not to Us", and "Arriving". Also check out "Watermark" December 4, 2004

Tuning In To Jesus.

The Passion tour is one of the best, perhaps the best, concert to occur in Christian music. Out of all the Passion albums out there, OUR LOVE IS LOUD comes very close to being the best Passion album produced. The songs on the album I enjoy singing most are:

"Here I Am To Worship"

"Famous One"

"Our Love is Loud" (the title track, duh)

"Come Thou Fount"

"God of Wonders"

On most albums (even Christian praise and worship ones) there's usually a few songs that I totally skip over when I listen to the cd. I can't say that about OUR LOVE IS LOUD because even the songs that I am not most drawn to are songs that are still great to listen to. Complement this album with SACRED REVOLUTION and you have some of the best praise music being written and sung in the past three years. October 15, 2004

The best worship album I have ever heard

I have listened to alot of worship albums, and this one is the best one I have heard. Sound quality is great, and the songs are awesome. It's a live performance, and that's one of the reasons why I think it's as good as it is. This album is a recording of a very real, very intense, and ever enormous worship time. It sounds like literally thousands of people attended the concert, and that means literally thousands of people were worshiping God while this was being recorded. My point is it's real. It's not worship songs that were recorded for the sake of sounding good. No, the artists and people involved were actually worshiping God when this was recorded. And upon listening, the feeling and the "passion" produced can be heard, and felt. If you like to worship God, and you are searching for a means to do so, buy this album. I'm sure it wont dissapoint you. Thank you. June 3, 2003

Better than One Day

I love all the Passion cds, however this is my favorite. The voices, the worship, the passion, you can just feel His presence listening to this disc. I encourage both Christians and non-Christians to buy it. The Passion Worship Band rocks and their Love Is Loud! April 27, 2003
