Petra's self-titled debut album marked a pivotal moment in Christian rock history when it was released in 1974. This limited edition 180-gram burgundy colored vinyl pressing brings new life to the foundational recording that launched one of Christian music's most influential bands. The album introduced the world to Petra's unique blend of hard rock and faith-based lyrics, establishing a template that would inspire countless artists in the decades to follow. Musically, the album showcases a raw, blues-influenced hard rock sound that was revolutionary for Christian music at the time. Standout tracks include "Storm Comin'," which features driving guitar riffs and powerful vocals, "Backslidin' Blues," a gritty exploration of spiritual struggle, and "Someday Your Love," which demonstrates the band's softer, more melodic capabilities. The album's production captures the energy and conviction of a young band determined to prove that rock music could serve a higher purpose. This premium vinyl edition is pressed on heavyweight 180-gram burgundy vinyl, delivering enhanced sound clarity and durability. The pressing preserves the album's original analog warmth while providing improved dynamics and frequency response. The gatefold jacket features restored artwork and liner notes, making this release particularly appealing to both longtime fans and collectors discovering Petra's catalog for the first time.
This burgundy vinyl edition offers fans an opportunity to experience Petra's groundbreaking debut in premium quality, celebrating the album that helped define Christian rock as a legitimate musical movement.
