Reborn is indeed a rebirth for the band and their debut for Tooth & Nail Records. Gone are the death-metal and grind-core references that made the band a joke to fans of other musical genres. In its place are nods to the modern metal and hardcore sounds that are exploding from the underground. The change is not imitative, but a natural extension of Living Sacrifice's previous image, reflected through personnel and industry changes. Famed Little Rock producer Barry Poynter's work on the record outshines the efforts of more popular producers from larger cities. He helps expand Sac's sonics from a heavy, metal midrange to a beefy, crisp, thunderous roar. Monster riffs, huge rock hooks, tricky tape loops, and classical-guitar interludes provide the details that, along with the band's improved songwriting and streamlined performance approach, puts them in a new category: metal that matters. --Brad Caviness

Perhaps the greatest hard-core cd to date. February 14, 2001
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This album is absolutely incredible. It could very well be the best hard-core album to date. All songs are masterpieces, with heavy, thunderous galloping guitar and bass riffs. The vocals are perfect, not distorted, but extremely awesome. This band is very talented. If you are into thrash metal at its finest. I would strongly recommend this album. You just have to hear it for yourself to believe it.
Hard-Core Fury On the Surface! July 6, 2000

When I heard Truth Solution on the radio, I wanted to hear more of Living Sacrifice, so I went and bought their CD. I was so impressed by their music, that I made a web page about them. I couldn't believe that there was such intense Christian music out there. I love to listen to Living Sacrifice because the drums are fast, guitars are distorted to the max, and the vocals express anger with Satan (well, to my predictions). I think that Living Sacrifice is the most unique hard-core band on the market today because they have a sound like nobody else. I am still impressed with their amazing work on this album.
 Living Sacrifice - 'Reborn' (Tooth And Nail Records) March 21, 2006

'Reborn' looks to be the fourth effort from this Little Rock,Arkansas metal/grind core band.It should also be noted that guitarist Bruce Fitzhugh has taken over the lead vocals.Some semi-impressive cuts to turn your stereo volume to 'ten' are the blistering opener "Reborn Empowered","Awakening","Sell Out" and "Liar".Might be too heavy for some.Check this CD out at your own risk.

Forget anything you have ever heard about hardcore/metal music, you are about to re-learn. Reborn will blow you away.
There is only one word i can find that will describe this album: PERFECT. Every song is so intricate and so precise it blows your mind that it is so brutal. From blending acoustic guitars in the middle of a death metal song to the massive tape loops (used sparingly to good effect), this is the album that made Living Sacrifice "KING". Every song will get stuck in your head, and you will find yourself bobbing your head and drumming your fingers long after the cd has stopped playing. This is an absolutely amazing cd.
It is time to re-learn everything you know about heavy music. If you are a fan of the genre, and even if you are not (you WILL be, after listening to "Reborn"), you NEED to buy this cd. This was the album that introduced me to metal, and ever since then, hearing all the other bands, this album is still on the top. Nothing touches it.
Fast, Explosive, Complex in structure; the ultimate album! January 14, 2004

This album is nothing short of spectacular. Most likely the best work ever from the (then metal quartet) Living Sacrifice, this album explores every dark corner of the metal genre to make up one heck of a mind blowing effort. Nothing is left out in this album; thrash, speed metal, math metal, death metal, and a touch of hardcore. And yes, they are 100% Christian. Which is spectacular in itself that Christians can rock soo hard and still keep the message.Starting with "Reborn Empowered", LS kicks off the album with a ferocious start, followed by the well known single of "Truth Solution". From there, they explore the most nether reigons of dark metal, which leads the untrained ear to believe that these guys have more in common with the leigons of Death rather than the Christian metal corps. Tracks like "NO Longer", "sellout", "Spirit Fall", and Liar, further prove LS's talent as a band as well as devout Christians. This is my Favorite album in my collection. I urge any metal fan Christian or not to check out this album. This is one that any metal fan can appreciate.
