Inpop Records
Genre: Pop/Rock
Style: Girl rock band, cross between Black Eyed Peas, Barlow Girls, and TobyMac
World View:
"Here's to the one's who don't give up." "Get your hands up." "Today's your day/ So c'mon bring it on." "You need that boy like a bowling ball dropped on your head/ Which means not at all." These are just some of the lines from the songs in Beauty From Pain. Although Superchic[k] is a Christian artist, they do not openly sing about God. The closest they get is "...And let somebody know that the Most High cares...", "Cuz the days we are given are gifts from above...", and "...You will bring beauty from my pain..." Who is this unknown deity Superchic[k] is singing about? These terms, Most High, You, and [gifts from] above, can be used in almost any religion, but they do say in their "I would like to thank..." paragraphs that they thank God and "Jesus, my Lord and Savior" for the blessings of recording another album. Yes, that's nice, but Nickelback says the same thing and they are a secular group that I do not recommend. Superchic[k]'s songs are mainly about relationships that didn't make it. Many music groups and singers come from the same angle and many of them are secular. Why do "Christian" artists need to sound like the world? Yes, you may sell more albums, but does it have any Biblical truths, any meat, that Christians can sink their teeth into? You be the judge.
Overall Quality:
If you like pop/rock music with okay lyricks, this is your CD. Tricia, the lead vocals, has a whiney rock voice in the songs Anthem (Track 1), Bowling Ball (3), Wishes (5), It's On (7), and Suddenly (8), but she also has an incredible singing voice in Beauty From Pain (6) and We Live (10). This the type of music that you can get energized to. So, if you need a boost, pop in the CD, and start jammin'.
