Steve Taylor & The Perfect Foil - "Goliath"

Goliath is the first album from Steve Taylor & The Perfect Foil, a supergroup of musicians most people have never heard of before. The band consists of Christian artists who are largely unknown in the mainstream. While the lyrics on this album don't really delve into blatantly spiritual territory at all, Christian rock has a reputation for shallow lyrics and stale musicianship. This group represents significant exceptions to this perception.

Steve Taylor is a producer, songwriter and musician. His lyrics are known for being alternately acerbic and lighthearted, using clever analogies and wordplay in either case. His tendency to poke fun at Christian culture and take on weighty issues from an irreverent perspective has caused him to be a controversial figure in Christian music.

Peter Furler is a former member of the Christian pop/rock/alternative band Newsboys, first as drummer and then as lead singer. He also has experience as a songwriter, producer, and composer.

John Mark Painter is a multi-instrumentalist studio musician, film score composer, songwriter, and member of a rock band with his wife.

Jimmy Abegg is a guitarist and composer who was formerly a member of Vector and A Ragamuffin band.

The video for "Only A Ride" uses footage from Stunt Rock, while that for "Standing In Line" uses clips from The Departure.
