Disciple has been around for almost longer then I have been alive (more than twenty years). They have been a key player in transforming Christian worship music into what it is today. back in the 80’s and early 90’s all Christian music was acoustic guitar with no drums or fast tempos or hymnals, disciple along with many other bands first started using drums electric guitars fast tempos and hard rock sounding vocals in their music during the early 90’s. The band Disciple has changed many members sense its beginning, first the drummer, next the lead guitarist, sooner than later there were no original members of the band Disciple in the band. There has always been people saying that the band is no longer the same sense the switch to all the new members, but they still have the same song writer and the band loves consulting with all of its old members to make sure everything is up to the standards the original members set a long time ago. The new album O God Save Us All is set to come out on November 12, it includes their new single Draw the Line which features some of the old band members on it. The new CD as a whole has a very “who I am now hates who I’ve been” feel to it but as we start getting to the end of the album we start hearing lyrics like “this is where I draw the line this is where the old me dies light a match let it burn kiss it goodbye” which make us remember that no matter what we have done in the past we are forgiven and loved. Many people have some very mixed emotions about the new CD because the band has been going in a different direction with its music but personally I have listened to the whole CD on a demo track and I think that the changes the band Disciple is making are 100% necessary to keep up with the changing culture in this world. Overall I’m looking forward to the new release and upcoming tour starting in December the band has changed a little bit from what it once was but change is always needed and this time it’s most defiantly for the good.
