This is the second album from MTK (More Than Karaoke). 'Available' was recorded live during Cefn Lea Bible Week in 2005. The majority of songs are written by lead singer Tim Rowlands. It is encouraging to see bands producing fresh worship and not simply churning out versions of the big name worship songwriters. These guys obviously have a passion for the Lord and he is using them to minister. The opening track "Standing Here We Know" is an anthemic declaration of praise and has a hint of '80s rock. Another song I liked was "Yours Is The Name" which I imagine would really take off in a time of worship. I did think they sounded better on the faster songs such as "This Day"; the slower songs sounded a bit samey. Overall though MTK have a good pop rock sound.
