Album Notes Third Day: Mac Powell (vocals, acoustic guitar); Mark Lee, Brad Avery (guitar); Tai Anderson (bass instrument); David Carr (drums). Additional personnel: Paul Ebersold (acoustic guitar, piano, Hammond b-3 organ, Mellotron, programming); Boyd Tinsley (violin). Perusing the lyrics of WIRE, it's apparent that the mammoth success of Third Day's praise-themed albums, OFFERINGS I: A WORSHIP ALBUM and OFFERINGS II: ALL I HAVE TO GIVE, has given lead singer/main songwriter Mac Powell plenty of literary fodder. On several tracks, the vocalist pairs his band's trademark Lynyrd Skynyrd-via-Live grunge-boogie with words focusing on the difficulty of reconciling financial gain and rabid fan worship with a sincere Christian ministry. These are big questions for any band to grapple with, but Powell treats the subject with an admirable humanity that steers clear of over-the-top preaching or blind faith. Throughout, Third Day offers tough, rugged backing in the best Southern rock tradition, but with a modern touch that will also please fans of Staind and 3 Doors Down.
