Title: Sounding Gong & Clanging Cymbal
Product review: Lincoln Brewster's self-titled CD is strong on volume and short on inspiration. If making a joyful noise is the minimal standard for Christian music, then Brewster is adequate. However, "Everbody Praise the Lord" is embarrassingly passionless. It's as if Brewster is praising God from somewhere in his head rather than in his heart. His affected vocals, "I thank the Lord for the smile that he's put on my face; I thank the Lord for his Grace" sounds more like a high school football cheer than an inspirational connection with Deity. "Spin" is a bouncy little number, but really gives me no feeling of love of God. Brewster's music is the sounding gong and clanging cymbal, saying the right words but without heart or feeling, soulless. Taxi!
