As they are a Christian band, I wish I liked Narnia more than I do. Their first album bored me, while the second was a definite improvement, without being anything wonderful. This next effort is about the same; steady rock, with some good guitar riffs and occasional speed (like with probably the best song, "Walking The Wire"), and lyrics that have Christian flavour, without any avert preaching (Jesus' name is never mentioned).
Other highlights include "The Witch & The Lion", and the almost ten minute conclusion, the dramatic "Trapped In This Age". Seeing Aslan on the front of each release is pretty impressive too - there's certainly something about him.
I'll stick with Narnia, as I do want some more Christian music in my collection, but I wish they could do something... I don't know... more dynamic.
