I always seem to get to review the groups that I've never really listened to, to review, but I like that so much because it gives me the opportunity to try out new music, and share it with friends!
In listening to five o'clock people, I realized that there are so many groups out there that are worth listening to and this is one of them.
Some songs on The Nothing Venture sound like the newest "Jars of Clay approach" to music, but with a quieter side, then in other songs they have this celtic bluegrass thing going for them. The strings and percussion put a nice twist to the music and at times you just feel like closing your eyes.
My favorite songs on The Nothing Venture were "Remain," "Living Water," "Sorry," "Blame," and "Now I Sing." In "Remain" the strings play a big part of the song. It's as if the voices and strings are chasing each other. "Living Water" has some very nice harmonizing in it and I really like the lyrics as well as the way it opens with strings and then percussion. "Now I Sing" has such a rhythm to this song. It's catchy and it had me singing to it.
The only problem that I had with this album was that it could've used more bass, but five o'clock people have very simple voices that reach out. I sensed this in each and every song. So until next time... keep your flame burning bright so that it will penetrate the darkness.
