Album Of The Day: The Eternal Son by Rivers & Robots

Album Art of Rivers & Robots's The Eternal Son album - On a beige background, rocks, flowers and a geometric shape are illustrated together in the center and blobs of blue, gold and black are surrounding them, with white, thin rings around some of them as well. At the bottom, the album title is printed in black in small letters.

For the past few days, my album picks have been from the United Kingdom. So let's keep it going for a 4th day, I guess. Rivers & Robots is a British band that makes modern worship music, though not what you hear at most churches today exactly. Jonathan Ogden and band create beautiful and complex, sometimes jazzy and sometimes electronic pop/rock with lyrics praising God and/or talking to God directly. Many of the lyrics seem to be taken directly from Scripture, I think. It might not be exactly music to be sung in churches, at least in this form, but it's beautiful music that can draw us closer to God. I honestly only started listening to this band a few years ago and don't know if I can distinguish this album from their 4 other studio albums, but I've liked all of them and want to get into their music more.
