{"title":"Steve Taylor","description":"\u003cp\u003eSteve Taylor is a sharp-tongued Christian rock provocateur whose satirical wit set him apart from the mainstream Contemporary Christian Music scene of the 1980s and '90s. His albums \u003cem\u003eMeltdown\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eI Predict 1990\u003c\/em\u003e showcase his knack for biting social commentary wrapped in new wave and alternative rock production. Taylor later went on to front Chagall Guevara and transition into film production, cementing his reputation as one of CCM's most adventurous creative voices.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"taylor-steve-danielson-wow-deadness","title":"Wow To The Deadness CD","description":"Wow To The Deadness is the 2016 release from the veteran singer\/songwriter Steve Taylor who teams up with Daniel Smith (Danielson).  Opener \"Wow to the Deadness\" is the perfect example of their effortless fusion.  Part eerie campfire sing-a-long, part bruised-up brawler, the song volleys from Taylor's exhortation to \"let it slide to the other side\" to Smith's ecstatic declaration, \"We have a winner!\"  In \"A Muse,\" Taylor plays another glory hound clawing for his 15 minutes over acrid, clawing guitars.  And \"Wait Up Downstep\" is a revved-up Boy Scout marching song, Smith alternating between mantra-like refrain and beautifully swooping verses.  And \"Nonchalant\" has the same coiled intensity as the National, but feels more wounded, more restless.  More than anything, Steve Taylor \u0026amp; the Danielson Foil is the sound of two acts scrapping every rule of songwriting and rewriting the document according to their own impulses.  Every time you think you've got its sound pinned down, it shape-shifts again, transforming into something entirely new, fantastically confounding, and utterly irresistible.  It is, to paraphrase Steve Albini, really raucous and really, really great.\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCD Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRelease Date: February 05, 2016\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecord Label: Splint Records\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUPC: 859715297737\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumber of Discs: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Steve Taylor and The Danielson Foil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":23772868929,"sku":"Steve Taylor and The Danielson Foil","price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1398\/5745\/products\/600x600bb_9c6bae5f-90c9-4b14-88d1-19d6d3b3272b.jpg?v=1471616905"}],"url":"https:\/\/colliderecords.live\/collections\/steve-taylor.oembed","provider":"Collide Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
