Skillet.

I heard the full album too at Road to Rise. It's fantastic!
Good to Be Alive gave me chills too! I'm also digging the songs from the deluxe version, like Freakshow. Although I still think my favorite is Circus for a Psycho. Seth's guitar playing on that one is fantastic. And let's not forget all of Jen's singing! John said at the event he wanted this album to focus on what everyone's good at. More Jen singing, more Seth solos, more keyboard from Korey, etc. Oh! And the interludes between the songs, especially the intro before Not Gonna Die. Fun fact, pretty much all of the extra vocals are members of the band's family. And apparently during American Noise, there's a part where John's son says "It's too loud!" or something like that really softly. But yeah, I literally had goosebumps the entire time listening!
Can't wait for my album to come on Tuesday, I'll be listening to it nonstop :D Oh, PS, I got a few pictures from the event if anyone's interested xD

It was a really fun time! I dunno if you've ever met the band, but they're really cool people! Funny, easy to talk to, good messages, and overall really kind. I was worried I'd go into shock actually seeing them in person, but it was kinda cool to see them as just people hanging out with other people :P
 
I got to meet them once in a really quick meet and greet. Nothing too special, but it was a nice surprise.
 
Time for a mini bump!
Just purchased Not Gonna Die and Madness in Me from iTunes. The songs are really good and really inspriational for my future stories. I love it, going to buy the rest of the album soon!
 
Skillet is not really my kind of music although I think ''comatose'' and ''monster'' are pretty decent.
 
they're decent. i saw them perform last summer and i managed to get close enough to where i could touch the stage, they're absolutely fantastic live. lucy and the last night made me cry :p it just really pisses me off when people think they lack talent or a band's music is any less good just because of their beliefs. me personally, i'm agnostic, but i still think they're great. comatose, whispers in the dark, and monster are my favorites.
