We Once Were

HAVING BURST ONTO THE CHRISTIAN MUSIC SCENE IN 2007 WITH THE MEGA-HIT UNDO, AND MULTIPLE OTHER RADIO SUCCESSES, RUSH OF FOOLS EARNED ASCAP SONG OF THE YEAR HONORS AND GARNERED FOUR DOVE AWARD NOMINATIONS. NOW WITH EONE MUSIC, THE BAND RETURNS MORE HOPEFUL AND DETERMINED THAN EVER! In the midst of their own trials over the past 3 years, the band wrote and created WE ONCE WERE, an album of hope and restoration both for themselves and for others. Produced by Dennis Herring (Counting Crows, Modest Mouse, Jars of Clay), the album features songs which speak to trust, faithfulness and the human condition like the first single Grace Found Me already a radio favorite! Other songs like Beginning To End, Won t Say Goodbye, and Come Find Me speak to gained confidence through faith in the hearts of believers. One thing you ll notice upon first listen is the production quality of this recording. This is not an assembly-line recording. It is dirty, raw, honest, and refreshingly real. The guitars have the sonic quality of a Weezer or Jimmy Eat World or Oasis in their best moments. The bass cuts with distortion and tone to be envied. The drums sound authentic and naturally massive--not sampled and compressed. In an industry that has beaten the horse of slick production beyond death, Rush of Fools has taken the opposite approach to make a record that sounds unique in both sonic and emotional presentation--the net effect is a contemporary classic with that immeasurable quality that will make you think to yourself, this sounds so familiar... Yet, no one has heard anything quite like it.
