We Set Fire - Deliverance EP
Raw metalcore from California

Shapes Stars Make - These Mountains Are Safe
Shapes Stars Make are a three piece band that some may call indie rock and others may say it's post-rock. No matter the label, the music is what's important. Just pop in their second album and right away you'll find it's impossible not to be moved on some level.

The Access - The Time Has Come
As my final review for the end of a decade I'll revisit a missed worship album that deserves attention. The Access released their debut in 2008 and they are worth checking out if you are a fan of other worship bands like Casting Crowns and Leeland. The Access do their part in making music that stands out from their contemporaries.
