Meant To Live

Switchfoot

Columbia (US)

WE SAY

No soundclip today - The devil doesn't have all the best tunes - Christian music has plenty of them too. We've listened to dozens of mainstream US rock records recently and this is by far the best. Switchfoot are big on the Christian scene and Columbia are working their new album in America, meaning they should soon be big way beyond that scene.
