5 out of 5 stars Brilliant.......2006-04-19

I had fun with some of the songs in my song-by-song blow-by-blow list below. Be not deceived, however. Kevin Max could very well be the next Sting or Peter Gabriel. I honestly cannot think of another artist with such a gap between talent and popularity. Hands down the man is underrated in every way. What is the deal??

This is my favorite Kevin Max album. Lyrically I feel it is his best, and the musical diversity is brilliant.

1. SEEK: Great upbeat number, rocks!
2. 21ST CENTURY DARLINGS: Kevin Max fronting the Mars Volta. THE most brilliant musicscape I've ever heard coming from a Christian (or "post-christian", whatever) artist.
3. IRISH HYMN: Visceral, may be my favorite on the disc.
4. STRANDED 72.5: "Oh my love..you're changing every day...in every possible wa-ay...."
5. GOLDEN: Another visceral and stirring ballad.
6. HALLELUJAH: My least favorite cover of this, a la the Doo Wop stylized vocals in the background. His live version in concert should have been included instead as a "live" track.
7. TO THE DEARLY DEPARTED: Mesmerizing and gut-wrenching lyrically.

Caviat - The album is, in typical Kmax style, ahead of the curve musically. However, it still relates to you, which I found not true of Peter Gabriel's music overall time and time again.

5 out of 5 stars Short but great.......2005-07-19

This EP is wonderful. I wish it was a full album as the songs here are great but you have to wonder if he had enough songs for an album but chose instead to only offer up the best. Either way, this EP is better I think than Stereotype Be. The songs seem to be more melodic taking you on a journey together as well as individually than Stereotype Be. I hated dc Talk breaking up and I still hope and pray that they reunite and put out many more albums but it's good to see Kevin succeeding in reaching out and challenging himself to produce better music.

5 out of 5 stars between the fence and the universe.......2005-06-22

This is a solid EP. Criticizm towards Kevin Max regarding whether or not he's still a Christian, and towards his music is ridiculous to me. The beauty of Kevin's music is that he doesn't put his message right out there in the open.

DC Talk breaking up was the best thing that ever happened to Kevin Max. TobyMac is a travesty to music and christianity. And tait is mediocre at best. Kevin Max plays real music. He plays with real emotion and sings about real life things. If you're a christian who can't handle that, then please go listen to Toby Mac talk about what a huge party christianity is.

We should all be thanking people like kevin max for bringing some legitimacy back into Christian music, not bashing him for doing so.

1 out of 5 stars Is KMAX still a Christian.......2005-06-12

I've wondered for the last several years whether KMAX was a Christian. His interviews and songs being the source of this curiousity. In regards to his latest, I'd read the lyrics before purchasing this album. It's ok to "go out of the box" but don't leave the Faith while doing so. lilmacumd@yahoo.com

5 out of 5 stars Priceless Talent!.......2005-05-22

I found the "Between the Fence and the Universe" CD to be a most excellent experience! Somebody give this guy a Grammy already. Here's how I rate each song:
1. SEEK: encouraging and uplifting.
2. 21ST CENTURY DARLINGS: totally rocks!
3. IRISH HYMN: Beatle-flavored inspiration.
4. STRANDED 72.5: groovy guitars and melodic vocals.
5. GOLDEN: beautiful, endearing lyrics blended into a timeless tune. Title speaks for itself!
6. HALLELUJAH: haunting and tearfully sweet ballad.
7. TO THE DEARLY DEPARTED: stirring and hopeful rhthmns.

I only wish there were more than seven songs recorded on this CD. If you loved the "Stereotype Be" CD, you won't regret this sohomore experience!
