Update 7/20

Hey guys! I know, it's been a while, but it's the summer and I've been busy, so I apologize. There's a lot of news that needs to be caught up on, so here we go...

Most recently, Showbread has posted a song from their upcoming album, The Fear of God, on their Myspace. It's called "Lost Connection With The Head," and I like it a lot. And while you're there, check out the album artwork and pre-order the album. And if you wish to hear another new song unveiled from the new album, check out "Nothing Matters Anymore" from the Fuel Magazine Sampler 2009, which is free, so do hesitate to download it.

In other new release news, Abandon, Philmont, and Skillet are releasing new albums on August 25th.
You can pre-order Searchlights, by Abandon, here.
Philmont's new album, Attention, is available for pre-order here and get an autographed booklet.
Skillet's new album has a few different options. The first features the CD, an Official Fan Club membership, and the immediate download of their single "Hero." The second has all that and an autographed VIP pass. The biggest and best has all that plus a t-shirt. Click here to pick which one you want. And if you don't want to go with those, there's a fourth on MusiChristian.com, which comes with a free t-shirt. All of these options are pretty great, so choose wisely! Also, be sure to check if they'll be near you on their upcoming "Awake and Alive Tour" featuring Hawk Nelson, Decyfer Down, and The Letter Black.

Thousand Foot Krutch will be releasing their fifth studio album, Welcome To The Masquerade, September 8. You can take a look at the pre-order options here. They include the CD, a t-shirt, autographs, and a belt buckle. You can also get their 3-disc anthology, Deja Vu, on the same page.

September 22nd is the date when Pillar's new album, Confessions, releases. More details on pre-orders to come.

Also, pre-orders for Switchfoot's newest album, Hello Hurricane, begin this August. There will be five options: a digital download, standard CD, vinyl w/ digital download, deluxe CD/DVD, and the collectors deluxe edition, which will have the CD/DVD and b-sides, a hardbound 84 page photo book, and an exclusive poster. Stay tuned for more to come...
