| This is an incredible album. Every song is pleasing to the ear. Vocally and musically these guys are almost untouchable. Very few bands have achieved musically, vocally, and spiritually what Crystavox has.

| Crystavox is good. Not the BEST I've heard -- but, ah-ight. I guess, that's the problem: The songs sound the same after a while. Adam Kemp is a good singer and the guitars shred. There's some attempt at melody -- which is a GOOD thing guys! Interestingly, while listening the thought occurred to me that Crystavox sounds a lot like Bride! Who'd a thunk it: A Christian band imitating another Christian band, rather than a secular one?!

| The guitars on this record sound completely different than anything I've ever heard, secular or Christian. Its good, but I have to be in the mood for it. I don't even know how to describe this difference. The songs do rock, but I think the record would have been absolutely incredible if the guitars had a more 'normal' sound. Still a good record...

| When I first heard Crystavox, I thought of Queen, but with a harder rock sound. This is diffinitely a solid CD with plenty of hit type songs.

| Oh, my! If you were expecting more commercial hard rock, akin to their debut, forget it! Crystavox slapped on the leather and cranked the guitars to deliver a scorcher! From the passionate performances, to the (again) INTENSE, thought-provoking lyrics, 'The Bottom Line' is relentless in its pursuit to drive home God's powerful Truth! Hat's off to George Ochoa for his blazing guitar work! No doubt about it, Crystavox meant business, and 'The Bottom Line' is one POWERFUL album!

| Another great album I've heard these days. Since the beginning till the end, very pleasant to hear. Great vocals, great guitars, great melodies, well produced. In my opinion, this is, definitely, a must to have for the people that likes rock/metal music. Finally, almost the whole album is outstanding, but my favs are: The Big Picture, Stick to Your Guns and Rockin' a Hard Place.
