SWITCHFOOT SURVIVES THE STORM
After a three year break and numerous album release delays,
Switchfoot finally unveils
Hello Hurricane (Atlantic), which given early reviews thus far, could put the project right alongside its now classic breakthrough disc
The Beautiful Letdown. The album releases as a standard single disc, a deluxe edition with a behind the scenes DVD, plus a box set loaded with several collector's items. And be sure to stay glued to CCM all week as the Switchfoot takeover is in full effect!
FLYLEAF FINALLY LANDS
With four years in between albums,
Flyleaf was even more overdue for a new collection.
Memento Mori (Octone) also drops as a standard CD and deluxe set, continuing where the group's mainstream-savvy hard rock ruminations left off. The project was produced by Howard Benson, also known for his time with P.O.D. and Skillet's latest CD.
