Review

One of the more unusual Christian albums of late, 1956 is born out of the full use of creative license. The three members of Soul Junk are to their contemporaries as a funky secondhand store is to JC Penny. This effort starts with a hip-hop-rap sound, mixes in some alternative rock and folk, adds a dash of retro vibe, and then dumps the whole concoction into a vat of experimentation. Blended with lyrics that are comical, social, and overall spiritual, this disc must be handled with care or it may explode. Complete with an eclectic use of voices, electronics from every imaginable angle, beat-boxes, and raw guitars, the music is happily danceable. As is common with rap groups, Soul Junk has attitude in their vocal and lyrical styling. As well, the melodies and textures often take on the relaxed sway of the partied-out. But these expressions don't come across as aggressive or rebellious. They add an earthiness that somehow causes the comedy to seem deep, the commentary to seem vital, and the spirituality to seem paramount. --Israel Button
