Fireflight - Unbreakable

Reviewed by Tony Cummings

Ever since Evanescence broke through there have been a plethora of female-fronted rock bands but although not hugely original Fireflight clearly deserve their CCM success. With a minimum of fuss, 'Unbreakable' delivers a seamless mix of hard hitting rock rhythms and memorable hooks with Dawn Richardson's voice able to soar over the proceedings with considerable passion. The title track has already been picked up by the producers of US TV series Bionic Woman and excellent it is too while "Brand New Day", "The Hunger", "Forever", "So Help Me God" and "Wrapped In Your Arms" have all been chosen for Cross Rhythms radio play. All in all, an exceptional album of melodic rock from the Florida band.
