Product description Raze ~ Power .com With prerelease hype reaching a fevered pitch, Raze's Power faces a mountain of great expectations. Billboard and Christian retail outlets promised that this debut release would be the "next big thing" in contemporary Christian music. Is it? Well, let's just say the potential is there for this diversified foursome, especially after the No. 1 single "Always and Forever." Sure-fire hits include the Eurodisco-sounding "All Around the World," the laid-back pop ballads "Place in My Heart" and "My Everything," and the groove-laden "In the Name." But while Raze charts a course virtually new to the CCM genre, one has to wonder how distinct they'll sound in the CD bins next to the Backstreet Boys and other dance-pop favorites of the day. Yes, Raze's spiritual convictions underlie the nonstop jams on Power, but the jury's out on whether or not the music will matter. --Michael Lyttle
