專輯名稱：Control
In the two years since Abandon's Forefront Records debut Searchlights, the San Antonio-based band scored a Dove nomination, throngs of critical acclaim and tours alongside Fireflight, Building 429, Remedy Drive, Teen Mania's Acquire the Fire, plus a plethora of major faith-based festivals. Amongst all the activity, the modern rockers crafted its sophomore CD Control, which finds the five-some taking the next natural evolutionary musical step, while also turning inward for their greatest lyrical depth to date.
The thirteen tracks that comprise Control are oozing with examples of the group's instant reliability and heart on sleeve vulnerability, despite all the interactions with success and fame since first starting as an indie act in 2005.
As the idea of Control continued popping up in the songwriting sessions, it was only natural for Abandon to follow suit with the album's moniker. However, it's more than merely a quick catch phrase that summarizes the thematic thread throughout the project, but also a chance for audiences to consider a handful of very pertinent rhetorical questions. '`Are you in control or is God in control?'' the singer encourages fans to ponder. 'We basically want people to come away with an answer to `who's controlling your life?' We're not really looking for a quick answer, but more to challenge your perspective and to provoke thought and motivation. It's brave to question where you're at and search out your heart.'
Between members' constantly developing faith, the project's adventurous sonic ambition, and perhaps most importantly, everyone's individual resignation of Control, Abandon is poised for its most active and effective season thus far.
