ABOUT THE ALBUM

MAD AT THE WORLD released Boomerang in 1991, marking a significant development in their exploration of alternative rock. This album stands out for its rich variety of musical styles, setting it apart from their previous effort, Seasons of Love. The energetic opening track "House of Sin" bridges the two albums, while "If You Listen" introduces a darker, more atmospheric sound, vividly depicting themes of spiritual struggle.

Tracks like "Back to You" and "Don't Give Up" highlight the band's ability to craft memorable melodies and harmonies, with the latter drawing comparisons to the mid-90s rock vibe of Stone Temple Pilots. The poignant "Ballad of Adam and Eve" and the hard-hitting "Sunday" showcase the band's versatility, from tender love themes to grittier, Alice In Chains-like tones. "Draggin' the Chains," co-written by bassist Brent Gordon, delves into the depths of sin and redemption, offering powerful lyrics, quasi-metal guitars and a deeply compelling narrative.

Perhaps the most controversial track, "Isn't Sex a Wonderful Thing?" uses biting sarcasm to critique modern attitudes towards love and purity, reflecting the band's fearless approach to challenging societal norms. The album closes with a robust reprise of "No More Innocence," transforming the original keyboard-driven track into a full-force rock anthem.

This reissue of Boomerang, part of Retroactive Records' Legends Remastered Series, is limited to 300 copies and features a remastered sound by Rob Colwell. Packaged in a jewel case with an eight-page lyrics insert, this edition revitalizes one of the best Christian alternative albums ever, ensuring its legacy endures for new and old fans alike.
