Dizmas
Relevant Update
Did anyone else notice when Relevant Magazine took their free song page down a while back? I was pretty disappointed when I noticed that their epic list of free, legal, live, acoustic, song downloads was missing. Thankfully…
Relevant Magazine recently updated their website, and have put the same great list of downloads up, just on another URL. Same songs, different web page. If you haven’t download these yet, and live, acoustic performances by artists like Jars of Clay, Tenth Avenue North, Sara Groves, Pigeon John, and No More Kings sounds good to you, you don’t want to miss this. You can either link up here, or check out my old post for more information in my post about it.
-Relevant Magazine’s Song Downloads-
MASSIVE Amount of Free Live, Acoustic Mp3s
Free music today courtesy of Relevant Magazine, and specifically, their podcast. They have approximately 60 (give or take) free songs, all of which were recorded live in their studios. The majority are acoustic, but there are a few “normal” songs, specifically by Pigeon John and The Procussions. I wasn’t sure what a live, semi-acoustic rap would sound like, but it’s really pretty good. As expected, artists like Sara Groves, Phil Wickham, Derek Webb, and Andrew Peterson sound as good unplugged as plugged in.
There are also quite a few new, indie artists on the site as well. A couple to watch out for are Band Marino and No More Kings. And if indie isn’t exactly your favorite thing in the world, there’s plenty of staples like Jars of Clay, Leeland, Dizmas, NEEDTOBREATHE, and David Crowder*Band. Just about something for everyone. Enjoy! 
Edit: Relevant has moved their list of free songs to a new page on their site, get the details on that here.
Free Music from Falling Up, Dizmas, and Family Force 5
Christian rock fans rejoice, this is the post for you. Well, the second post for you, after this one. Three songs, no matter how good, can’t really compare to over 25. Anyway, I have three can’t-miss free mp3s today from a new website called NOTW (Not of This World). They are actually a Christian clothing wholesaler, selling T-shirts, sweatshirts, etc.
Anyway, I’m getting off-topic. The site has three free downloads, “Play It Safe”, by Dizmas, “Never Let Me Go”, by Family Force 5, and “Good Morning Planetarium”, by Falling Up.
All three are amazing songs, and I’d highly recommend them all. Even more exciting is that the site says there will be new songs monthly.
Before I close this off, I wanted to say something about “Good Morning Planetarium”. The song is all about brokenness, followed by hope in Christ, then, a call to anyone else who’s feeling “cold and incomplete inside”. I would like to echo Falling Up. If you ever need someone to talk to about problems, or life in general, I’m always available. I can’t promise to have all the answers, but I know Who does. I know having someone like that was and is really helpful in my life, so, if you ever need someone to talk to, you can email me or try and catch me on Google Talk. Either way, freechristianmusicblog@gmail.com.
Free Sampler from Creation Fest!
Not two days since I posted about the last free music from Creation Festival, the catchy song “Captives Come Home” by Run Kid Run, Creation has officially topped themselves 10 times over. As in a 10 song free sampler featuring Run Kid Run, Thousand Foot Krutch, Pillar, Fireflight, Dizmas, The Afters, Leeland, Mike Farris, and more. There are at least 3, if not 4 or 5, number one hits inside this sampler. Totally, absolutely sweet.
These aren’t no-name songs either. “Unbreakable”, by Fireflight, “Falls Apart” by Thousand Foot Krutch, “For The Love of The Game”, Pillar. Seriously cool stuff.
I could probably wax eloquent about how incredible it is all night, but I really need to get to bed. So just get it and enjoy it.
Site Updates: B. Reith, Sara Groves, Dizmas, MercyMe, and Mike Farris
Seems like all of the music sites seem to pick the same time to update. Great for you, but it certainly makes my job a little bit harder. Despite that, I’m going to attempt to catch up with the new music that’s out there…
Beginning with FreeCCM: the site has know got new free songs from Sara Groves, with her song “Honesty”, MercyMe, with “Grace Tells Another Story” from the groups new CD All That Is Within Me, and Mike Farris with “Selah! Selah!”:
Next up is FreeGotee.com, who recently added new hip-hop artist B. Reith to their site. Joining John Reuben, Relient K, Family Force 5, and Stephanie Smith, B. Reith has his song “Cold World” up for free download.
And lastly, iTickets has new free music up. This week it’s Dizmas’ excellent “Shake It Off”, from the band’s new self-titled CD that just came out. It’s a great song that I highly recommend to all rock fans. Remember though, it’s this week only. (No pressure. )
Song Combat Results
Boy, was that a close race. I thought Dizmas might take it for quite a while there…
But there can only be one winner. And that winner is Roper. Thanks for voting!
Roper was the side project of Reese Roper, former lead-singer of Five Iron Frenzy. It was a bit short lived, but did release on CD, Brace Yourself for the Mediocre. This song is from that CD. It’s a fast-paced praise rock song. Lots of fun.

X2008 (With Free Music)
Spend all of your Christmas money yet? If you haven’t, I’ve got a way to make it go farther.
If you buy the first printing of X2008, the new Christian rock compilation, you could get a “New Rock Sampler”, with 15 new song, free with your purchase. (You can tell it’s the first version by looking for a little sticker on the packaging, say it’s got the sampler.)
The new rock sampler has some of newest and coolest bands and songs, including:
- Dizmas – “Play It Safe”
- Our Hearts Hero – “Tomorrow”
- Emery – “The Party Song”
- Mainstay – “Becoming Who You Are”
- Newworldson – “Working Man”
- Spoken – “History Erased”
- Project 86 – “Evil (A Chorus of Resistance)”
- The Send – “An Epiphany”
- A Dream Too Late – “14th and Knott”
- This Beautiful Republic – “Going Under”
- Ruth – “You Are”
- Wavorly – “Madmen”
- Stephanie Smith – “Superstar”
- Nevertheless – “Live Like We’re Alive”
- KJ-52 featuring Toby Morrel from Emery – “Wake Up”
To claim the music, you need to put the CD in your computer and visit the site listed on the card. They’ll ask you for a email address. Once you put that in, you can download all the songs.
The X2008 CD itself is a good collection of songs, not perfect (compilations never are), but worth the money in my opinion.
(or you could just buy it at your local Christian bookstore)
