Although the "Music" itself sounds great, really does, nice and "Hard Driving" with excellent Vocals, Vocal Harmonies, Killer Rhythms and Song "Hooks" etc,. Just that there's virtually "nothing" in their Lyrical content on this Recording that "to me" even sounded as if it'd be speaking of "anything to do w/ God etc", in fact the songs typically sound "Relational only, as in man-woman" etc? And especially the "It's not ME it's YOU" song, sounds pretty darned "MAD" at a "partner" and basically "Ridiculing" them! I could be wrong, I'm only human myself, but this CD was NOT the "Uplifting in a ROCK and powerful way" Christian recording I "thought" it was going to be, and only in THAT regard am I disappointed, there's nothing in these songs to "sperarate them as a Christian band from a purely Secular/Worldly band.Read full review
I bought this cd for my daughter on her birthday. She had found songs by Skillet in YouTube and we both have enjoyed listening to them. My daughters smile when she opened this was one I’ll never forget. The songs are awesome and I love listening to them. When I’m in a bad mood, Monster is one of my favorites to belt out. If I want a slow song, it’s not me, it’s you or don’t wake me, is what I will listen too. I look forward to buying more cds and enjoying this music :)

This isn't the first Skillet album I've ever listened to but it's the first I bought & the one that made me go back & buy their previous releases! I love the range of emotion found in this album, they go from 'ticked off rock' in the songs "It's Not Me It's You" & "Should've When You Could've" to passionate pleas in "Hero" to showing a softer side in "Lucy". Their sound is epic & the lyrics do not dissapoint!If you are a Skillet fan or just a rock/ metal fan this is defintely one for your collection!
If you love heavy metal/ Hard rock music but of the gosphel christian kind with up lifting lyrics about the good in life and God You will love to git this cd and all there cds. I Love when females play in hard rock bands. Skillet has 2 females a drummer with alot of spunk, and rythm guitar / key boardsist who could play with the best of em in any band out there. I really love the use of the back ground female vocals. Great sound! Use of different guitar harmonys on alot of there cds, makes this bad a must buy!!! A+++
My Granddaughter and I LOVE this CD. This will be the sixth or seventh time purchasing "Awake".
