http://www.purevolume.com/stapleStaple is a incredibly unique band. They play powerful post hardcore rock (heavy rock with a mix of singing/talking/screaming), but if you're not a fan of the genre - don't let that keep you from checking these guys out.
Staple's incredibly thought provoking Christian lyrics really are the base of the music as they really talk about pushing harder and harder for Christ and not getting involved in this messed up society that we live in (Do or Die, Sound of Silence). They're real people though - as they talk about the struggle of not just putting on a show and claiming to be Christians, but really striving to live your life for God (Honor and Integrity). There are many more great Christian themes on this CD, as well.
As far as the music itself goes - it is easily some of the best of its genre outright. The guitar riffs are very fresh and interesting: sometimes extremely fast chords mixed with scales, and sometimes slower acoustic music. The drums also drive the album very well. The lyrics, as I mentioned above, are incredible. Keim's incredible vocals perfectly blend singing, speaking, and screaming into the music seamlessly - and each variation is used appropriately.
