Third Day launches Chronology, Volume Two (2001-2006)

Sounds like … the more adult contemporary friendly side of Third Day’s Southern pop/rock catalog, closer to Hootie & The Blowfish and MercyMe than The Black Crowes or Lynyrd Skynyrd.

At a glance … the DVD documentary is excellent, but the songs—from the second five years of Third Day’s career—are an unfocused mishmash of covers, live tracks, and tepid AC pop.

Interestingly, almost a third of these songs are not by Third Day, which is especially frustrating considering that at least six No. 1 hits were excluded between the two compilations. At least the DVD is worthwhile, particularly for its excellent hour-long documentary of the band’s history, plus some good live footage. Whereas Volume One felt essential, encapsulating the early years of one of CCM’s greatest rock bands, Volume Two is better left for fan clubs and completists.
