Frontman of Living Colour, with his first and untill now only album, has rocked the sky with Hymns. There is not one song on it, which is worse than the rest, so everything is great.

The most famous song, April Rain, is still great, but must-hears are
also The Silence, Hot Buttered Soul and Only Time Will Tell.

Corey Glover proves he is still a magnificent singer and this solo-project let us beg for more.
