Unspoken’s Long-Awaited Studio Album IV: A Celebration of God’s Love
In the midst of an ever-evolving cultural landscape, the Christian band Unspoken has emerged with a profoundly impactful project, their fourth studio album titled IV. Set to resonate with audiences around the globe, IV encapsulates themes of divine love, identity, and resilience. Following a five-year hiatus from studio recordings, this album serves as a beacon of hope and encouragement, challenging societal perceptions and reinforcing believers’ identities in Christ.
Who Are Unspoken?
Unspoken, an RIAA Certified Gold®-selling band from Centricity Music, has become a significant presence in the contemporary Christian music scene. Comprised of talented musicians, including Chad Mattson, the band’s messages resonate deeply with listeners, encouraging them to explore their faith. The band’s evolution over the years has seen them tackle various personal and spiritual challenges, which inform their songwriting. IV, featuring tracks such as the anchoring radio hit “What He Says About You,” reflects the band’s journey in addressing the pressures of outside influences while grounding themselves in their beliefs.
When Was IV Released?
IV was officially released on September 13, 2024, marking the band’s first studio album since 2019. The anticipation surrounding the album has been palpable in the lead-up to its launch, especially with the success of “What He Says About You,” a song that has not only climbed into the Top 15 on radio charts but also speaks to the core message of the album. This timely release serves to uplift and reaffirm the identities of believers during challenging times.
Exploring the Themes of IV
The thematic heart of IV revolves around God’s unwavering love amid life’s storms and cultural shifts. The standout track, “What He Says About You,” challenges listeners to reject the false labels imposed by society. Written thoughtfully by Mattson and his collaborators, the song serves as a reminder that true identity is found in being loved, chosen, and treasured by God—an essential truth Mattson hopes to instill in his daughters and his audience alike.
The album also features the collaboration of popular country music artist Walker Hayes on the track “More Church Than Church,” illustrating the importance of community and support in one’s recovery journey.
