5. "There Is A Way" - Newworldson
Our first new tune this week comes from Newworldson's self-titled sophomore album and the slower song sounds a great deal like something Jimmy Needham would release, making it a sweet winner in my book.

"Mess of Me", from Hello Hurricane, first came to our attention in October of last year. Guitar rock with plenty of kick and crunch, this tunedefinitely shows off their new sound.

7. "The Butcher" - Project 86
The second new song to start March off with is from the July release, Picket Fence Cartel. Regardless of what you think about hard rock in Christian music, you simply cannot deny the lyrics of this tune.
There is no weapon
There is no blade
You wonder why I’m not afraid?
There is no weapon
There is no blade
You’ll never kill Him that lives inside of me.

8. "Monster" - Skillet
Our third newcomer is the rockin' "Monster," from Awake. A fun song with a "special effects" moment, this tune is also very real and doesn't hide the monster of sin that still reaches out for all of us behind the "I'm a Christian, therefore I'm perfect" mantra.

9. "Walls" - Manic Drive
Number 9 in the Top 10 is our last new tune of the week. If there were a genre called Christian Electronic/Pop, this tune would fit in perfectly. While musically, it's not exactly my "thing," there is absolutely no denying the lyrics and folks, powerful doesn't even begin to describe them! The lyrics remind me of Casting Crowns, just with more bite.Buy from Amazon »
10. "Desperate" - Fireflight
This rocker comes to us from the new For Those Who Wait. Thein-your-face music meets with lyrics that will rock you to your coreand you'll find yourself asking, "Am I desperate for a sign or is myfaith enough?"Buy from Amazon »
