MP3 Last Day - Happy Medium
12 MP3 Songs
ROCK: Modern Rock, POP: New Wave
Details:
Last Day’s challenge and their goal is to get everyone, but especially young people involved in worshiping and praising God through music and thereby experiencing God in a whole new way. Another hope of Last Day would be to influence other young musicians to consider sharing their musical talents for the glorification of God instead of turning to secular music.
Last Day was formed in 2001 and as with most bands has seen the normal ebb and flow of band members. The present lineup in Last Day consists of Andy Henry who plays multiple instruments, but primarily confines his talents to guitar, keyboard and backing vocals for the band. Lead guitarist with his superb guitar picking skills is John Brockmeier and he also lends his voice to backing vocals. Matt Jackson is also a skillful guitar player on both acoustic and electric and the band’s distinctive sound stems from his powerful lead vocals. The newest addition to the band is our bassist, Joe Tabeling. Then, last but certainly not least, supplying the driving beat of the band, is our rockin’ drummer, Nathan Lubbers.
From their roots as leaders of their church’s youth group band, the members of Last Day have progressed to exciting crowds throughout the US. In 2005, they self-released a full length CD entitled ‘Astray’ with such crowd pleasers as “Eternity” and “Circles”. In March 2006, they released what promises to be their most successful project to date, another full length CD entitled “Happy Medium” produced by Rick Andress of Fox Studios, Cincinnati.
Last Day is not about putting on a concert or show, their mission is to write and perform music that helps lift your heart, mind and soul to God. Where ever possible they display their lyrics so people can worship right along with them. Their sets consist of their own original songs with thoughtful and meaningful lyrics along with powerful rock music and a few favorite cover songs because they truly want everyone involved in their shows. So, where there is apparently a place for screamo and metal bands in Christian rock, Last Day is neither. Nor do they sit around the campfire singing ‘Kumbaya’- well, hardly ever. Seems like Last Day is a ‘happy medium’ with their own unique sound and that is basically, solid rock. So crank up your CD player, plop in Happy Medium and start rocking along because Last Day is coming… Are you ready?

A good test for me when listening to a CD is whether I can listen to it several times through without always hitting the skip to the next track button. This release passed that little test with flying colors!
The band''s music is a mixture of several different styles including; Rock, Modern Rock, Pop Punk, and some Modern Worship.
Whatever style you want to classify it under the main point is that the song''s feature great lyrics that are set against a backdrop of simmering guitars and riveting drum beats.
On top of that add lead vocals that wrap themselves around each song fitting as snugly as a well-fitted wet suit does on a diver.
With all of that said the lyrics still grab your attention with their heartfelt sentiments and thoughts. Many different subjects are dealt with from Salvation and God''s Grace to feeling lost in your faith.
While most of the songs on the CD have an upbeat tempo you''ll also find two ballads.
The first is the guitar ballad, "A Simple Cry," a song about getting back in harmony with God. The second is the piano ballad, "Calling In The Night," a really powerful song that deals with overcoming times in your life when everything seems hopeless.
This is a well done effort from the band and one that you shouldn''t let pass you by.
