Cutting Edge (recordings)
Cutting Edge is a series of recordings made by the British rock band Delirious?. The songs were originally written for a regular youth event, Cutting Edge, in the band's home town of Littlehampton. Through this, the band gained its first name, 'The Cutting Edge Band', which was later changed to 'Delirious?' when the band went full time in 1997.
Reviewing the 1998 United States release, CCM magazine found that the band had created "a modern hymnody for generations raised on rock 'n 'roll." One major lyrical break from older styles of hymns, however, was the lack of masculine and patriarchal pronouns.
