"Cool Hand Luke combines unique lyrical imagery and cool harmonics to produce a unique album, especially for the fairly stagnant Christian Rock genre. They have a strong Christian message throughout the 10 song album without beating you over the head with it or being overly preachy. Most of the songs are fairly mellow, and they are all long, it's not radio friendly, but it is listener friendly. I would reccomend it to anybody who like Pedro the Lion, Unwed Sailor, Saves the Day, Dashboard Confessional, the Juliana Theory, or even Milemarker. Another interesting feature of Cool Hand Luke is that when they play live, they keep their backs to the audience. This is probably a result of the anti-materialist philosophy expressed in their lyrics. You won't regret buying this album."
Amazingly christ centered worship

"well, I've liked this band from the beginning, from there first CD and I even saw them of my local area in Lakeland, FL. I like them alot, this CD is different from the rest because it involves Cello,violin, and piano alot more than their other two CD's. If you like the band Mineral I think you will like them alot."

"Cool Hand Luke is one of the best bands I've ever come across. This CD is so spiritually uplifting and amazing. The lyrics are full of joy and love, and the music is so peaceful and emotional. Mark's vocals are the best thing about this band though! Mark is the vocalist/drummer and you don't see that very often in music. Their earlier stuff is hard emocore/screamo, and I suggest buying those CDs too (buy them on coolhandlukeonline.com). Awesome band! Awesome CD!"
Christ will shine on you.

"Wow. Wow. Wow. I had heard a lot about this band before I bought it and when I did the guy checking me out said 'This is the best CD you will ever own." I didn't know their lyrics were soo spiritual. I knew they were Christian but a lot of Christian music is vaguely about Jesus but "Wake up, o sleeper." is 100% about Jesus. Their lyrics are amazing. The songs vary from deep worship melodies to powerful more personal life related lyrics. This album just blew me away."
