Big Church Day Out
A Christian music festival (also known as a Jesus music festival or simply a Jesus festival) is a music festival held by the Christian community, in support of performers of Christian music. The festivals are characterized by more than just music; many feature motivational speakers and evangelists, and include seminars on Christian spiritual and missions topics, service, and evangelism. They are often viewed as evangelical tools, and small festivals can draw 10 times the crowd of traditional revival meetings. While the central theme of a Christian festival is Jesus Christ, the core appeal of a Christian music festival remains the artists and their music. Critics point out that the dichotomy of business and religious interests can be problematic for Christian festivals. In similar ways as the Christian music industry in general, festivals can be drawn away from their central theme and gravitate toward commercialization and mainstream acts in an attempt to draw crowds.

Audio Lessonover?
''Audio Lessonover?'' is the fourth studio album by the Christian rock band Delirious?, released in August 2001. It gathered considerably less critical acclaim than previous Delirious? albums, both musically and in its lack of overtly Christian lyrics.

Background, writing and recording Following the more experimental music of '' Mezzamorphis'' and '' Glo'', Delirious aimed for a "stripped-down" pop sound on their new album, influenced by, among others, Coldplay, Radiohead, and the Manic Street Preachers. Many of the songs were recorded semi-live in the studio, giving the album a raw feel. Chuck Zwicky (former engineer for Prince and Semisonic) was brought in to oversee production of the album. According to Stu G, Zwicky was very influential in the recording of t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
