About "Human Race"
Lyrics:
World without end, are you ending?
Labeled a friend you're unfriending
Disposable me, pose-able you
Any position we want to do
Another song you forget by the ending
Plastic we don't know we're spending
My favorite shows have all cancelled
And every patent is pending
Look in my eyes, touch my face
We're limping along in the human race
Our jeans have become complicated
The promise of love is downgraded
Faith in available excess
Proof we were destined to care less
It's life on the wrong side of rapture
Dismiss what we can't manufacture
Compassion just sounds like complaining
Hit the keys but the notes aren't sustaining
Look in my eyes, touch my face
We're limping along in the human race
The sound of your heartbeat is out of place
We're limping along in the human race
We lost everything in the fractures
Uprootings and wanted departures
Look in my eyes, touch my face
We're limping along in the human race
The sound of your heartbeat is out of place
Limping along in the human race
So, look in my eyes, touch my face
We're limping along in the human race
About "Inland":
It's been nearly 20 years since multiple Platinum and GRAMMY Awards winning band Jars of Clay (Dan Haseltine, Stephen Mason, Charlie Lowell and Matthew Odmark) released their debut Frail. Students at the time, Jars of Clay once again harness the youthful ambition and uninhibited creativity of their beginnings for their 11th studio album, Inland. Cultivating a maturity in sound with embellishments of violin, horns and ambient melodies that attests two decades of experience, Jars of Clay's Inland also marks a return to their roots as an independent band. Releasing the album on their own Gray Matters label, the band is shattering some of the preconceived notions built over the years by label marketing strategies.
"These are songs for the ordinary days--when life is weighty and uncertain," reflects Odmark. "It is this middle space that we have inhabited over the years. It's where you and I do the gritty work of actually living."

I miss the old days. I miss when your music meant so much more and had feeling and spirit. This sounds like an attempt of mimicking The Shins or something. Why is it so pop sounding? The world needs you guys now more than ever. Please return to Christ for inspiration. Because whatever this music is, it's not the heartfelt Christian sound I remember. And I know why you made this. I understand you're trying to attract a new crowd. But this is not the way. Please return to your roots. We're waiting on a masterpiece. This is a message of love, from one brother to another.
