Gideon is a newer Christian Hardcore band that i am just becoming more of a fan from listening to their new album Costs released via Facedown Records. They have been listed on AP’s Top 100 bands to watch list for this year (2011). Their new album is in the vein of Stick To Your Guns and The Ghost Inside, which is not a bad thing by any means. You will catch your head bobbing up and down to their break beats and break downs. They do a great job of mixing punchy hardcore, hard hitting breakdowns, melodic riffs and some good singing. This overall is an amazing album but by no means is a masterpiece. It is a solid debut for Gideon, that will keep fans looking forward to what is to come. In addition it is a short album (9 tracks, 8 full songs) but it does please the ears and has decent replay value.

Stylistically very similar to The Ghost Inside, but definitely would be easy to differentiate the two. I could go without the clean vocals, they don't really add much here and sound out of place. Songs aren't identical sounding so it does get acceptable replay value.

This is not punk, this is hardcore metal, and pretty average metal at that. Skip it!
