Release Notes:

Now, if you don't like Christian rock, well, can't
help you with this one, but, at least, check out the
music loaded up here and see what you think! "Rick
Altizer has managed to make one of the best pop
albums of the year. Imagine the Beatles using only
scripture for lyrics and you've got a great idea of
what Pop Symphonies is all about." Dr. Tony Shore -
Obvious Pop. Here's what Rick says about this
project:

Three years in the making, "Scripture Memory - Pop
Symphonies" has been a labor of love for me. It was
my desire to make a Scripture Memory record that you
would actually enjoy listening to. I decided to do
my best to make an excellent record in hopes that
you would listen to it multiple times. After
repeated listening, the scriptures would be forever
lodged in your brain. Strings, horns, pianos, walls
of guitars, stacks of vocals, the kitchen sink
approach (hey, it's me), all to coerce you to
listen, again and again.

Pledging allegiance to the united states of Melody,
Hooks and Song Craftsmanship, Alitzer exhibits some
of the finest pure pop magic you`ll hear this year.
Fans of the Grays work from Jon Brion and Jason
Falkner will find much to enjoy here, as well as
labelmate Doug Powells` work. As with his whole body
of work, the CD contains and endless supply of music
laced with lush, melodic hooks that combine honest
lyrical observation and wry metaphor. Points of
music reference are hard for such a unique talent,
but pin us to the mat and we`ll mention label mate,
Doug Powell and the purest pop moments of Adrian
Belew and his work with The Bears. While not for
everyone lyrically, musically it's very, very much a
classic Not Lame-styled release!
