He plays great and his voice is well suited for the style. However, the most important factor is his songwriting. This is a composer to watch for! The title song is a 22 minute massive metal epic that is surely progressive with its many shifts and moods. Something that made me think of Kansas if they were more heavy metal and less prog.
Still a very startling piece of music that is really worth listening. Theocracy are an incredibly powerful thrash prog band that have a full on Christian lyrical approach, reminding me of the huge phase in the 90s when Christian thrash bands such as Tourniquet and Deliverance were popular. Smith's vocals are terrific, very powerful melodic and easy to understand.
Hinds' and Conklin's guitars thrash away with the traditional chunky chug-a-chug rhythm at times locking in to a monstrous riff or even going at break neck speeds.
The lead breaks are not a key feature, rather the lead guitars are a melodic augmentation to the breakneck riffing. The bass is rather heavy at times and along with the pounding drums creates a massive rhythm machine. Tower of Ashes begins proceedings with a moderate beat and a keyboard passage that drives it along, very melodic and then it breaks into killer speed. Benson pounds the heck out of those drums and the speed is like Helloween at their fastest.
It slows for the vocal parts and then a very pacey guitar blast takes over the song, I am reminded of Dragonforce here and it is definitely one of the fastest tracks on the album. On Eagles Wings has a catchy hook and very clean vocals that are easy to remember. This is great song writing that has a purpose, usually to teach a lesson about how to live or how to cope with pain.
The chorus is memorable, giving honour to God; 'all honour, all glory, praise to your majesty on eagles wings'. One of the best songs is the thrashy, power metal of Laying the Demon to Rest. The lyrics are great; 'As the battle rages on and on, I face the fears I put my faith to the test, The fallen angels won't leave me alone, Father come and lay the demon to rest, when the sword is broken off in my hands, When I'm about to fall please help me to stand, Father come and lay the demon to rest'.
