Superchic[k]

With an iPod full of great releases this summer in Gospel & Christian music, we've selected just a few to whet your appetite for the coming weeks.

The chick-fronted rockers made their debut in 2001 with Karaoke Superstar. Seven years later they’re still going strong with their usual dose of self-esteem-building, synthesized brand of punky pop-rock. But the band again delivers a couple of surprises, including some impressive guitar riffs. Lending some contrast, their Imogen Heap knock-off “Breathe” is quite lovely, if unoriginal. The classical sound of “Crawl (Carry Me Through)” and a symphonic version of “Stand in the Rain” (which first appeared on their 2005 album Beauty from Pain) provide quieter moments.
