The Petra Zone

I can't imagine why anyone would want a compilation anyway. I can't stand them. There just dumb things that get in the way of the real stuff on ebay... I would request that record companies would stop making them already!

I'm just gonna see if anyone actually likes the song "Hand On My Heart", from Unseen Power. So far I've never heard much good said about it. It sounds kinda weird, admittedly, though I thought the album in general to be a rather strange assortment. My father and older brother listen to Petra, and bo...

I still don't see as this necessitates two events; It just sounds to me like different aspects of the same event, taking place at approximately the same time. I'm going to do more study on this; For now I still hold that there won't be a rapture, and that the Christians must remain on earth until th...

Okay, well I'm not really into the rapture stuff, I think Jesus will return once and that's the end. I'm sure that we have different views on this; it's very difficult stuff to understand and I'm not exactly sure what all my views are yet. It seems to me that those who "look for the signs of the end...

Well, as for other artists, I take most any Christian music from before 1992 :) I like Newsboys, Steve Camp and Steven Curtis Chapman, though Petra is definitely my favorite. I also like some of the Volz solo albums, although his music quality seemed to degrade quickly. I've actually never met anyon...

Well, yeah, I'm just saying that we probably aren't having such a strong affect on the earth as we tend to think we are. I personally don't think the earth is going to ice over, but that's just me. I might also have a different view of the end-times, and the antichrist may not be as we expect him. P...

It's kind of silly to freak out every time the ice caps are a different size than they were the year before... seems to me, they're always a different size. Guess that explains the "global warming!"..."global cooling!"..."global warming"..."cooling"..."warming"..."warming"..."OH WAIT! THE EARTH IS C...

A Petra DOS game is an interesting idea; I suppose I must be the only one here who still plays DOS games (mostly NetHack). I can't really think of a way to design a good Petra game, though. I myself am not a programmer, and thus wouldn't be able to put anything together anyway, but I think this is c...

I really like this album, too. It has a catchy 70s sound that I like (admittedly partially because everyone else hates it), and also has very solid words on most of the songs. "I'm Thankful" and "Magic Mirror" are my favorites, though "Why Should The Father Bother?" is a real classic too. It's funny...

If they had written new songs, then you would get a second God Fixation . That's about it; I don't think it was a very good idea for an album, especially as most of the songs were originally sung by Schlitt. I could at least understand if they were mostly Volz's songs... I might even like it! But as...

I voted for "All About Who You Know"; It has a very interesting song theme. In general, my critique for this album is that most of the songs sound very similar... It would have been nice if they had at least shaken it up with some different special FX. NOTW had a similar problem. I'm also not a big ...

This Means War! is definitely my top favorite Schlitt album; of all Petra albums, it's the only one I enjoy as much as Beat the System. I especially like the grand sound of "Get On Your Knees" and "You Are My Rock". I also thought it curious that Wake-Up Call is so liked, especially since it didn't ...
