First Time On Vinyl
In 1993 Audio Adrenaline dropped one of their biggest albums, Don’t Censor Me. The song Big House reached number 1 on Christian radio, and is often regarded as one of the band’s biggest hits. It received 1990’s Song of the Decade by CCM Magazine. I would imagine that it was also the encore for many show. With over 8 million streams on Spotify this songs is just one of the many great hits you’ll on this 42 minutes and 42 seconds of funky rock and blissfully stunning album Don’t Censor Me.
