#9. K I D S.
Side B EP

Release Date: TBD
We were thrilled to see Kids in the Way return as K I D S. this past year. Their Side A EP was a nice return to the music scene, but I hope Side B will give us some more fast-paced tracks to listen to. Regardless, I trust that whatever they put out will be solid.
        - Nicole Marie Vacca

Christian rock is not what it once was 13 years ago when Kids in the Way came on the scene. There was a lot of good music coming out in the genre, and it was just really crowded. As a fan of all three of their Kids in the Way albums, their revival as K I D S. was super exciting to me, and their Side A EP was immensely satisfying (whether or not there has been a drought of good Christian rock in the past couple years). I'm very excited to see how Side B builds on this two-part project!
        - Christopher Smith

K I D S. really surprised me with the release of Side A last year. Not only was an amazing band making a comeback, but it was not what I was expecting at all, and yet I totally loved it. I am intrigued to see if they stay the course or if they take some steps towards the Kids In The Way style that made me love them in the first place. Either way, I am stoked to hear Side B.
