Petra's Grammy nominated 1985 album, Beat The System, is one of Petra's most transitional works. It is also one that manages to sound surprisingly relevant today. There's no way around it. Beat The System is a synth-rock album from top to bottom. While the program heavy sound fit the lyrical theme of the album, and the trends at radio in 1985, some fans initially bristled at their favorite rock band's digital direction. Catchy songwriting, and a prescient theme, however, has helped the album to age well. As a capstone to the Volz era of the band, and a snapshot of Bob Hartman's ability to adapt to changing styles and trends in rock and pop, Beat The System stands out and you are about to hear this album in all it's glory.
