Common Children
Delicate Fade



Artist Info: Discography
Album length: 15 tracks
Street Date: 1997


Common Children's sophomore album Delicate Fade has been around for a while, but it continues to be the "go to" album in my collection. The entire record is beautifully crafted musically, and it is definitely the emo-core of Christian rock before the genre was invented. It is relevant and real, which I find refreshing, especially when some artists seem to just sound like knock-offs of their mainstream counterparts. This is the album to own and the rock is ageless.

JFH Staff's Additional 2 Cents


A strong sophomore effort but a major departure stylistically from their debut Skywire. Trading the edge for dreamy, near-ambient-based rock, Delicate Fade is original, but not the band's best. - 11/10/04, John DiBiase
