The 1986 Listening Post -The Choir - Voices in the Shadows

The Choir - Voices in the Shadows



#461/2111
October 1986
The Choir
Voices in the Shadows
Genre: (Christian) Power Pop
3.75 out of 5



Highlights:
Fear Only You
Love Falls Down


This band is listed as “Christian Alternative” but all I hear is upbeat power pop, so, either they hid their message really well or I’m a dolt. 
In fact, if The Choir wasn’t labeled as Christian Rock I don’t see how “Love Falls Down” isn’t a college radio hit in the mid-80s. This is the sound of every REM wannabe band or The Connells or U2 lite. 
Totally acceptable power pop.
