I'll be happy to get a little something something off my chest: I used to have the biggest crush on ex-Flyleaf singer Lacey Sturm when I was younger. Nostalgic hots aside, it is now the year 2016 and this enthusiastic Christian has churned out her debut studio album. Entitled Life Screams, the record offers instrumentation that is only decent at best, and yet the underwhelming musicianship can be overlooked in favor of Lacey's vocal performance; as the years and years passed like a submarine up in the clouds, her vocals managed to get slightly better. I already thought Sturm was a pretty good frontwoman during her tenure with FL, but Life Screams is home to some of the 34-year-old's best singing yet. In the main, Lacey Sturm's solo debut LP boasts a fairly believable atmosphere accentuated by the lady's generally passionate vocal deliveries. Angel recommends: "The Soldier," "You're Not Alone," "Life Screams," "Faith," and "Run to You".
