Phil's debut album opens with "Your Love Is" which sets the tone for a fairly generic, uninspiring record. Too often the sounds are unoriginal. Many of the songs here have the most awful electronic drum beat, which is very difficult to ignore. When you do get past that though, the rest of the production values are not much better, with directly injected acoustic guitars limiting the potential live sound. Having said all of that, if you forget about the demo-quality production and arrangements and just concentrate on the songs, there is no doubt Phil can obviously write. But the release of this low-budget effort does Phil few favours which is a shame as he's clearly a worship leader with talent and potential.
