#12. Sanctus Real
The Dream

Release Date: September 16, 2014
Even though the band's sound has changed over the years, slowing down from their energetic debut, to the more CCM-friendly releases we've seen recently, it's hard not to be excited about The Dream. Let's be honest; fans of their earlier albums have changed in the last 18 years too. One thing that's stayed the same though? Their powerful message, and ultimately, that's what really matters.
        - John "Flip" Choquette

I've loved following Sanctus Real since their fast pop rock (label) debut back in 2002. While the past two albums have catered a bit more to the CCM pop radio crowd for my tastes, the promise of The Dream being a little more like older Sanctus Real has this original fan excited. Regardless, it's encouraging that this band is even still making new music in a time when bands barely stick it out past their debut!
        - John DiBiase

They've become a staple in the CCM market. Personally, it feels like their past few albums have detoured from the sound that captured many fans, but I still hold out some crazy hope. In no way do I want to hear a repeat of one of their past recordings, but something of that caliber is definitely desirable.
