"New Wine" is a progressive Christian hard rock album from Realign, a tight band with a cutting edge sound. The listener is immediately pulled in by Realign's awesome driving guitar sound that, combined with energetic yet sensitive vocals and a killer rhythm section, is a recipe for a winner. Realign has a great rock sound, with an overall vocal and musical performance similar to Rush, Incubus, and Christian hard rock band Chevelle. The production quality of "New Wine" is fantastic, mixed to really bring everything forward and electrify your ear drums. The quality of sound can also be attributed to a well-layered sound created by polished musicians. Highlights include the title track, "New Wine," which opens the album musically and establishes the spiritual and driven sound of the album. "Lapse in Judgement" opens with a haunting piano line and atmospheric synths, then erupts into a rocker. "Far From Yesterday" features a hot guitar riff, cool changes, and intricate drum work. With "New Wine," Realign has bridged the gap between secular and non-secular music with a great mainstream rock sound and Christianity-inspired lyrics. If you enjoy highly dynamic hard rock with a big sound and powerful vocals, check out Realign.
