Listen To The Sound

Artist: Building 429
Label:  Essential / BMG
Release Date: May 10, 2011
Duration:  10 tracks, 36:58




The excitement is back!  Building 429’s debut LP, ‘The Space Between Us’, shined with a raw emotional power laying the foundation for solid praise, worship, and meaningful story telling.  Over the course of x albums and changes in band members the message remained consistently powerful but the musical energy lapsed.  With ‘Listen To The Sound’ the energy was returned, in force!

With a high level of production value and a maturity earned while cutting their teeth over years of touring and studio work, this album stands on its own.  As a rocker, this is the best B429 effort since Paul Bowden, former lead guitarist, left the band.  Since then, gone was the raucous guitar work that trade marks a band’s sound.  Like George Harrison gave the Beatles and why Mick Jagger wanted Ronnie Wood to Leave the Faces to join the Rolling Stones.  This raw, emotional sound has returned with ‘Listen To The Sound’. 

The combination of finding their ‘Sway’, the signature vocals of Jason Roy and well written songs gives Building 429 another winner in ‘Listen To The Sound’.  In this offering, Building 429 has found their cadence.
