{"product_id":"jars-of-clay-who-we-are-limited-cd","title":"Who We Are Instead CD (Deluxe, Limited Edition, Bonus Songs)","description":"Limited Edition Deluxe CD version of Who We Are Instead which includes 2 bonus songs, behind the scenes interviews, music video and more.  In some ways, Jars of Clay's 2003 album Who We Are Instead is comparable with U2's classic The Joshua Tree.  Both albums lean towards a country-rock sound, defined by sparse arrangements and pared-down lyrics.  In the Jars' case, the moodier aspects of this approach are tempered with upbeat power-pop influences and a certain resolute innocence.  \u003ci\u003eSunny Days\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eI'm In the Way\u003c\/i\u003e glide on buoyant melodies as they convey a reassuring Christian message.  A grittier, more unsettled note pervades \u003ci\u003eAmazing Grace\u003c\/i\u003e (an original, not the classic hymn) and \u003ci\u003eJealous Kind,\u003c\/i\u003e songs that contrast mortal weakness with God's unchanging love.  Some of the best moments here are the most reflective and subdued, such as the starkly evocative \u003ci\u003eFaith Enough\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eMy Heavenly.\u003c\/i\u003e  Just as effective is a sparkling cover of America's \u003ci\u003eLonely People,\u003c\/i\u003e showcasing the band's smoothly matched harmonies.  Acoustic guitar, mandolin and electric piano dominate the arrangements, with programmed drums giving tracks like \u003ci\u003eTrouble Is\u003c\/i\u003e a techno twist, and Ashley Cleveland's commanding gospel vocals makes their presence felt on several tracks. - iTunes\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCD Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRelease Date: November 04, 2003\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecord Label: Essential Records\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUPC: 083061072728\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumber of Discs: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Jars of Clay","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":23772042689,"sku":"Jars Of Clay (8)","price":6.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1398\/5745\/files\/Jars_Of_Clay_Who_We_Are_Instead_Limited_Edition_CD.jpg?v=1753373980","url":"https:\/\/colliderecords.live\/products\/jars-of-clay-who-we-are-limited-cd","provider":"Collide Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
