FFH's new album is acoustic-driven pop and rock. There's catchy pop songs ("You Found Me", "It's A Good Day") there's soaring ballads ("Ready To Fly") and quieter reflective numbers ("Follow Love"). However, it does edge into twee-ness at times, which is a shame (Jeromy Deibler even sings "you might think this song is a little trite"). But this isn't a bad album at all. The fact is FFH are a bigtime CCM unit in the States and have even contributed to a US Coca-Cola advert. They do what they do excellently and when their stated goal is to reach as many people for Jesus as they can, it's impossible not to respect and support what the band is doing.
