    Pros: Great originals and Christmas classics

    Cons: none

    This is the best Christmas album to come out in a long time! Ever since I heard Third Day on the Christmas City on a Hill CD, I knew they should do a full holiday CD, and they truly delivered a gift to their fans!

    Just bought it today, already one of my favorites

    Pros: A truely awesome CD, thanks Third Day!

    Cons: None at all

    We bought this CD for one song, "Merry Christmas", which is the last song on the CD. My wife and I are in the process of adopting a little girl from China, and this song is perfect for any adoptive parents, but especially those adopting fro...m China. This song is a real tear jerker, as the wait is a very long one, but will be well worthwhile. The other songs are wonderful as well, but this song makes the album! Read more Less

Pro Reviews: Christmas Offerings

  • All Music Guide

    Third Day's Southern rock treatment of favorite Christmas melodies is a breath of fresh holiday air for rock enthusiasts. Despite the sometimesgritty riffs, it is surprising how delicately the album comes off. The quintet blends the energy of their six studio releases with the graceful spirit of carols like "Angels We Have Heard on High" and "O Come All Ye Faithful". The result is a collection of mostly midtempo drivers with plenty of buildups and cathartic climaxes. The guitars never roar louder than Mac Powell's earnest vocals as he belts out the wellknown lyrics without pretense. For balance, the album includes live recordings of "Do You Hear What I Hear" and "The First Noel". Overall, the group cements its sound further into the hearts of fans while whetting the appetite of those unfamiliar with their catalog.
