Album Review: Jars Of Clay - Redemption Songs

American Christian rock band Jars Of Clay released their seventh album "Redemption Songs" on 22 March 2005. It was released by Essential Records. "Redemption Songs" is a collection of reinvented hymns and spiritual songs. As part of a church community that believed passionately the blessing of understanding the story of redemption through early church songs and ancient hymns, Jars Of Clay found themselves a part of a growing renaissance, one that inspired them to write new songs using the rich hymn texts as the foundation. This renaissance was the beginning of Redemption Songs, a blend of familiar hymns, spirituals, and ancient texts.
