newsoys holds at No. 1 on the SoundScan Christian Albums chart a second consecutive week. Critics are calling In The Hands Of God the band’s best disc to date:
“…Boasts some of their most contagious and memorably fresh melodies to date… In the Hands of God makes a fitting transition into a new phase of musical ingenuity for one of Christian music’s iconic bands.” -GospelMusicChannel.com
“…A batch of tunes that assimilate the finer aspects of the band’s past work…[A] vigorous blend of new wave, brittle rock and electronic pop to give the band’s fans a generous helping of what has made newsboys one of the most successful acts in CCM history.” -Christian Musician
“…In the Hands of God proves that the boys from Down Under not only still have what it takes to create an album worthy of the band’s legacy, but have perhaps recorded one of the finest, most cohesive and well-produced newsboys projects to date.” -Soul-Audio.com
“…The CD features classic rock ‘n’ roll newsboys - big guitar riffs, driving drums and some quirky, pop lyrics thrown in for fun — all with a message… If you are a longtime newsboys’ fan, this CD is a must.” -Denver Post
