British Band Delirious? Challenging America With Mission Bell

|PIC1|British rock/worship band Delirious? is receiving outstanding feedback in USA with the release of its critically acclaimed new studio album, The Mission Bell.

Released on the 27th of December, 2005, the album contains the lyrical contribution of fellow British artist Matt Redman and several popular American Christian artists such as tobyMac who lends his vocals on “Solid Rock,” and Jars Of Clay guitarist Steve Mason who plays the Pedal Steel on “I'll See You.”

"2005 has been a year of connections and it felt like a good time to pull others in to our album and kind of model one of The Mission Bell's messages which is that we're not on our own.” says guitarist Stu.

Superb reviews of The Mission Bell include well-known media outlets in the US.

CCM Magazine comments: "The Mission Bell is unafraid to challenge, chide and inspire all at the same time. From cavernous rock anthems full of swagger and scope, to intimate and at times painful confessions of failure and fear, this is worship music with teeth."

|QUOTE|Relevant Magazine comments: "Ten years on, front man Martin Smith has a knack for writing words and melodies that end up on the lips of a million people."

Currently, their single "Fires Burn" is at radio in the US and also includes the Narnia-inspired "Stronger."

In addition, iTunes users can purchase The Mission Bell via download and receive an exclusive acoustic version of "Paint The Town Red" free with purchase of the full album.
