Hello Hurricane

Hello Hurricane arrived in the mail this weekend, in all of its vinyl glory. I took it over to the recording studio at my folks office and put in on the turntable, sat back, and enjoyed an amazing new record.

Switchfoot has been my favorite band since they’re debut album “Legend of Chin“.

There is a different vibe this time around. This album feels more personal. It tires me out when people try and inject meaning into art that may or may-not be there – but this album is incredibly deep.

Love seems to be a growing theme in Jon’s lyrics – the idea, theology, practicality, loss, hope… however you want to pin it. I first noticed it in his solo albums, and was pleased to hear it echoed in this new record. It’s not for pop radio and way too deep for church radio to grasp.

There are some albums in life that are better left un-diluted by pop and church culture. This is one of them.

I hope you buy this album. It’s an investment into yourself you wont regret, and shouldn’t live without.
