Unfortunately, in discussing the song on FB with people yesterday, very few people were willing to do any homework as to why this song exists and what led to it getting released on an album. I’m partially writing this as a therapeutic exercise for myself, and then partially so I can link drop this anytime the discussion comes up and hope to provide a nuanced, responsible point-of-view amid a topic that’s often brings out the worst in believers, both in attitude and intellectual rigor. God help us all.Īs a former music critic, and especially as one who has lavishly praised Kings Kaleidoscope over the years, I admit that I was extremely frustrated by this development. It still sounds absurd, even after having listened to the album on repeat for 9+ hours yesterday, but it’s nonetheless the world we now live in. In 2010ish it was Derek Webb, Mumford and Sons in 2011 and in 2012, P.O.D. Sufjan Stevens followed last year after a generous 3 year gap (although nobody cried foul much there mainly because Sufjan is an anomaly as far as both markets are concerned), and now we have Kings Kaleidoscope dropping an F-bomb twice in a song of their brand new sophomore release BEYOND CONTROL (oh, the irony is rich with that album title). The Christian Market F-Bomb Crisis comes like clockwork once every year or two. You can follow him on Twitter at you had told me Kings Kaleidoscope was going to be the next entry in the Christian Market F-Bomb Crisis, I would’ve laughed and said you’re insane. in General Studies at WTAMU in Canyon, TX. He hopes to attend seminary once he finishes his B.A.
