The band I loathe with a passion of this ilk has to be Nickelback - pure evil. LOL, I agree. Although I still like HYRM

aren't lifehouse a christian group? the genre tends to overlap quite heavily with this sort of music, i find... Checked wikipedia but not obviously...same as The Fray. Although a lot of Americans go to Church so yes there isn't the same big deal about a group being Christian there.

eh, i'm probably thinking of someone else then. i do have a very evangelical friend who listens to lifehouse and a lot of christian rock, so i may simply have come to assume that they are christian just because he listens to them

Hmmm, I know Creed were very Christian - although they've now split and it turns out that the lead singer's into drugs and groupies. Evanescence were targeted for the Christian market but rejected it when they saw the grass was greener (ie absolutely massive record sales). P.O.D who had a top 20 hit called 'Alive' (which was quite good actually ) are also Christian, although they are much heavier musically.

It sounds like generic American soft rock fare to me... i.e. NOT VERY GOOD... to be honest i'm surprised there's still a decent market for it

Finally got their album and it's fairly good. It is too generic but Isaac's voice and the piano is exceptional. My choice of next single would be the upbeat angsty 'Little House' but 'Over My Head (Cable Car)' would do fine.

It is - am I wrong in finding Isaac (the lead singer) a bit doable?
