Confirmed through lead singer, John Cooper on Twitter, the new single is done as is the new album. i would expect the new album to drop around August and the new single to be out before that sometime.

I knew the album was done, I just wasn't sure when they'd make a push for a single. I'm hoping for something Rebirthing-esque but that they'll still push to rock radio.

I'll see what details i can get out of management and report back. |

I'm still curious to know whether this album is going to be on Atlantic or Universal. It's because Jason Flom took the Lava imprint from Atlantic to Universal.
It may not sound all that important, but it kind of is.

I'm trying to figure out how that's possible, since Lava Records was folded into Atlantic. Unless he's restarting Lava with Universal, in which case I doubt any old contracts are still valid. I don't know too much about that side of things though. If it's any help, Skillet's MySpace still says Atlantic.

That was my point, because I mean, by 2006, Lava was folded into Atlantic, so really no one was on Lava anymore. That's why bands like Nonpoint and Skindred folded into Bieler Bros. while Skillet became solely Atlantic. I don't see why any previous ties to Lava would still exist. |

They played two new songs last night, and there are videos of both of them up on youtube. So stoked for this!! HeroMonsterLooks like Jen might be taking up the reigns as the female vocalist this time around, it'd make for a nice improvement in their live show if she did. |

Monster Lyrics
V1
the secret side of me
i never let you see
i keep it caged but i can't control it so stay away from me the beast
is ugly i feel the rage and i just can't hold it
it's scratchin on the walls
in the closet, in the halls
it comes awake and i can't control it
hidin under the bed
in my body, in my head
why won't somebody come and save me from this make it end
CHORUS:
i feel it deep within
it's just beneath the skin
i must confess that i feel like a monster
i hate what i've become
the nightmare's just begun
i must confess that i feel like a monster
i feel like a monster
V2
my secret side i keep
hid under lock and key
i keep it caged but i can't control it cause if i let him out
he'll tear me up, break me down
why won't somebody come and save me from this make it end
bridge:
its hidin in the dark
its teeth are razor sharp
there's no escape for me
it wants my soul it wants my heart
no one can hear me scream
maybe its just a dream
or maybe its inside of me
stop this monster

So they're not Comatose anymore?
I guess first they Collided, then they were Comatose, and now they're Awake, huh?

Happy? |

 Forgive me for being accurate. Wow, Breaking the Silence is really getting solid treatment for a new band. I guess having Chad Szeliga behind the kit doesn't hurt matters any.

Forgive me for being accurate. Try unnecessary. The joke I was making had nothing to do with their album history beyond the joke I was setting up, you just wanted to flaunt. |
