PILLAR
For the Love of the Game (Essential)
[3 stars]
Contemporary Christian music and ’80s era metal might seem like strange bedfellows, but one listen to Pillar’s For the Love of the Game will erase those notions.
While the CD awakens memories of a musical time gone by, it also pays homage to the world of contemporary Christian music. The members of Pillar are unabashedly unashamed of their place in the faith-based music industry, and they aren’t afraid to wear their faith on their sleeves as they call on listeners to do the same.
Pillar and producer Travis Wyrick (Disciple) have created an album that could generate plenty of hits for radio and will have you singing along loudly while pumping your fist in the air.
