String Quartet Tribute to Relient K

From the Artist
Relient K drove Christian rock into the fast lane with their pop-punk hooks and teasing teenage attitude. Leader Matt Theissen’s songs mix youthful, stand-up-and-be-counted defiance, with a knowing, lyrical maturity that puts the accent on faith. Smart-guy vocals snarl over a surge of guitar power, propelled by a rhythm section that knows when to hit the gas, and when to coast with the melody. Hot-wired to the heart and soul, Relient K is a free-spirited foursome of true believers.

Product Description
The String Quartet Tribute to Relient K turns rousing teenage confession into energetic chamber punk. Inspired by Relient’s buoyant pop hooks and rockin’ spiritual vibe, violin and viola let loose on the school’s out exuberance of "Sadie Hawkins Dance", while soulful cello brings it down to the emotional basics on "Getting In to You". Relient K set to strings – theme songs that celebrate the power of faith… and the freedom of rock.

Customer Reviews:

Great for Relient K fans.......2007-05-29

This CD has very well done string quartet recreations of Relient K's big hit songs.I would highly recommend it as a good addition to a Relient K fan's collection or for someone who enjoys variety as well. It is also a good way to bring the amazing music of Relient K to someone who likes strings.

Incredible!.......2007-02-19

Coming from a big fan of Relient K I had high standards for making a tribute album. This nailed it perfectly! I love the sounds of cellos and violens and when put to Relient K music makes a combination worthy of great approval.

Hmmm...Interesting.......2006-04-14

I have never been a huge fan of "classical" music that includes violins and such, but my brother bought this CD and I was very interested. I am a big fan of Relient K but would I like this string quartet? I did! They make the music of Relient K so relaxing and soothing. Anyone who has a taste for Relient K will like this.

The String Quartet did a wonderful job on playing their songs on other instruments and it sounds perfect and identical to the song. They even add a little extra "oomph" into the music that makes you more attracted to it. So I will say again, If you like Relient K, you will like this.

great songs.......2006-03-17

If Benjamin ever reads these reviews again, he should know that if you were to ask Relient K if they even like the song "My Girlfriend", they would say they hate it. That is why wouldn't be on a tribute cd. You can't make it a tribute with a song that they hate. I know this because of an exlusive interview where this topic came up...

Anyways, to the rest of the CD. I am very pleased with the selection of these songs. I am a long time fan of Relient K, and just about all of my favorite songs are included in this cd, so I think's pretty good.

It's basically a 'Greatest Hits' .......2005-11-26

This is awesome it has good songs from relient ranging from their first release to now. i rate it five star. and for anyone who says its missing a good song... if youre really a relient k fan, you'd have all the CDs anyways... like me... so what if im a nerd...
