Review - King of Fools (Delirious?)

Delirious?' first step away from their worship material of 'Cutting Edge' (paradoxically?) continues to lift up everything to God. If there is one word for Delirious?, it is vulnerable. Smith and his merry band have started their own record label to pursue music full time and the result is giving over everything to God to become the 'King of Fools'. Pure, raw vibe and some of the best ever written rock and worship songs introduce the rest of the world to these five humble guys who want to go deeper with God.

Delirious? are commited to Jesus in such an amazing way and their music is just a huge expression of that joy. They hope for revival ('Hallelujah, You've turned our sorrow into laughter' - Revival Town), prayerfully rejoice in God's mercy ('You know I would be blind without You / So light up my way to find my way home again' - All The Way), thank God for his gift of life (August 30th), unashamedly declare the gospel of convenant (Promise), exuberantly praise the Most High for His gift of peace (White Ribbon Day), and declare God's strength as He supports them ('I'll live for You and try to be the king of fools / I long for you and walk before the King of fools' - King Of Fools).

To say that Delirious?' music has catchy tunes and poetic, truth-revealing lyrics would be a great understatement. Merging edgy rock and a worshipful heart that's meant to thrive in the church is no easy job, but Delirious? have done it. As their musical style progresses and changes, they will no doubt continue to inspire faith in many hearts.

Catch the wave. You don't want to miss it.
