Equippers Revolution – ‘Hands High’ album review

click to buy

Equippers Revolution made a name for themselves two years ago with “This Is How We Party,” a song that effectively describes what to expect from the band: high energy, youth-oriented church party-worship music. A self-proclaimed, “bunch of kids from the end of the world,” the New Zealand band is composed of youth leaders and students from Equippers Church in Auckland. Now on DREAM Worship, the band’s sophomore release is loaded with busy EDM loops and hyper-programming that becomes distracting. There’s not a single guitar to be heard on the album. Lyrics are typical modern worship and rely too much on cliché, but they improve when they become introspective. “Let You In” is a standout of honest confession, suggesting the band’s potential to grow out of a crowded genre.
