Phenomenon by Thousand Foot Krutch (CD, Sep-2003, Tooth & Nail)

I grew up jamming to everything from Kiss to Metallica. After coming back to God and His plan for my life, I searched for music that reflected this decision. Contemporary Christian Music is great, but . . . it just didn't cut it on those days I needed to jam. After purchasing this CD for my son, I found it a much needed "fix". Imagine, jamming, edgy tunes with God's message to boot! Gotta love it!

Phenomenon is Thousand Foot Krutch's BEST CD YET. I highly recommend this disc to anyone, TFK fan or not. If you like rock music with a wholesome message this is the CD to get. TFK's debut CD was good but this is even better. Don't wait, buy a copy now!

This CD has definite flavor, but is quite a change if you're looking for something like Thousand Foot Krutch's first album. A couple of the songs sound a bit like Set It Off, but most don't.
It's an awesome CD that ranges from one side of the music spectrum to the other. I bought it specifically because I liked the title track and Rawkfist, but I've ended up liking almost all the tracks on it.

No fillers, great album, a joy to listen to. These guys love to rock "Have you forgotten the days, when we just wanted to rock 'cause we liked it that way" (from Bounce), but yet let their faith shine through (Phenomenon, This is a Call). That's what makes it the best album ever, PERIOD. It just stinks that it gets no radio play.

Phenomenon is by far the best album produced by Thousand Foot Krutch! I bought this album because Thousand Foot Krutch is my favorite christain band. I was very surprised by the acoustics/vocals produced by Trevor & the gang. These guy's have an amazing ability to spread God's word while using todays awesome rock melodies. I was truley blesed by this album and I would highly recomend it to anyone!

I'm not one of those people that rates albums at 5/5 flippantly, which is why this one is only a 4 rating. Having said that, it's freaking great.

TFK has crafted a nice cache of songs here to adrenalize the mind, spirit, and body. Their faith in God rests firmly in the palm of their hands, as evident in songs like "This is a Call" and "Faith, Love and Happiness", although the punch of their music often hits hard with a closed fist. Furious drum beats and frantic lyric spitting sprinkle over "Quicken", a massive sounding tune that wants to crush your ear drums into submission. In fact, most of the best singles -- "Phenomenon", "Bounce", "Rawkfist" -- practically beg to be played at full volume in a moving car, windows open so the world can share in it. The songs you won't hear on radio are also fairly infectious as well, although not always reaching the climactic energy of its most high-profile songs. Producer Aaron Sprinkle makes this recording shine with the biggest can of Simoniz he could find, and the results are powerful. Of course, the sparkle and shine in the music makes one wonder what the band will revert to in a live setting . . . energy of the highest octane like this is often hard to replicate live. Still, this is a strong offering with virtually no fillers.

The cd is one of the best of the I've heard in a long time.I love the song phenomen the beat is off the chart.I give them an A+++ I recommand them I'f you like a good beat.

TFK's Phenomenon is really good.

Maybe some people would disagree, but I used to listen to Linkin Park, and Three Days Grace. Over the last few years, both bands have gotten depressing and contain more swearing in their songs; and Thousand Foot Krutch is a great alternative to those bands!

The CD may not be as good as "The Art of Breaking", or "The Flame in all of Us", but it definitely schools most Christian Hard Rock/Nu-Metal bands.

Overall the CD is worth it, and the best song on the album is "Rawkfist"!

I like it, It's not like acidic rock or swearing screaming songs, It's a good rock CD, and I don't mean good as in good music, although it is, I mean good as decent music... no swearing, screaming, good christian music...

I liked it very much. I wanted to buy it because it was hard rock and also christian. The music as well as the words are very creative and awesome.
