Reuben Bidez
Generation
Independent
Grade – B-
Reuben Bidez is an independent artist and his new album is a fresh blast of worship. “Generation” has a very energetic and modern sound, as it is full of big anthems and guitars. There is a fair share of lighter more acoustical songs as well. The songs are lyrically unique and Reuben is a respectable vocalist, which gives the project and air of originality.
Individually, I like the more subtle tracks like “I Surrender,” the acoustical introspection of “Speak,” and “Alleluia,” which has a rock soundtrack, but it is not as anthem-ish. All together the 10 tracks offer a wide variety of worship both contemporary and more edgy, but all doable in a congregational setting.
Aside from the originality of the songs I was impressed with the production of the CD itself. For an independent debut it was put together very professionally. It goes to show that Rebuen believes in what he is doing and is willing to make an investment to make it the best album he can.
