Kinetic Faith

[3] The origin of Kinetic Faith traces back to the time between the release of the band's albums Live to Die and Silence is Madness when vocalist Dale Thompson decided to pursue a secular career because he was growing tired with the Christian music industry.

Dale became involved in a California-based band called Thunder Ball with the experienced Los Angeles scene bass player Rik Fox and performed concerts for two weeks as well as spent some time in the studio.

The result of his experience in California impacted that Thompson would turn Bride's musical direction to more straightforward hard rock, influenced by Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple.

Although the label was not planning to take Bride into its roster at first, after negotiating with Dale Thompson both Dez and Mike Kyle of Star Song signed a multi-album deal for the band.

[3] "Everybody Knows My Name", "Hired Gun, "Mountain", and "Ever Fall in Love" all feature acoustic laced hard rock sound, while "Troubled Times" and "Ski Mask" move in a more guitar driven direction.

The album opener "Troubled Times" deals with bigotry and racism, "Everybody Knows My Name" tells the story of a man who gained fame and riches through music but found that in the end all he had in life was worthless without God; "Crimes Against Humanity" tells that all men are guilty of crimes against humanity by neglecting the homeless and poor; "Ski Mask" talks about a man who was a criminal but in the end found God; The lyrics to "Kiss The Train" includes an anti-suicide message.
