Christian Rock OBSESSION |
A blog featuring album reviews, news updates, and a whole lot more about today's popular Christian rock and pop artists. |
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! This week is just full of awesomeness, if you ask me. Turkey day tomorrow, a ton of sweet deals the next day, and officially being able to listen to Christmas music without upsetting people for “starting too early.” And to top it off, here’s an update.

Speaking of Christmas music, Deas Vail will be releasing a four-song Christmas EP titled For Shepherds & Kings on November 29 (next Tuesday). The EP includes the songs “Do You Hear What I Hear,” “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen,” “Coventry Carol,” and “O Come, O Come Emmanuel.” I’m no expert, but I’m thinking they’ll do an awesome job with this. Also, don’t forget to check out dates for their Christmas tour, which you can find here.

Onto a totally different note, Demon Hunter has announced the release of a deluxe edition of The World Is A Thorn, due out on the same day as Deas Vail’s EP. It will have one cover song and four acoustic tracks, in addition to the rest of the record. Hopefully those songs are on iTunes so we all don’t have to buy the album over again, yeah?

For all of you Owl City fans out there, pre-orders for Live From LA begin November 29th as well. You can pre-order it on iTunes and have it for when it releases digitally the week after, on December 6th. If you want to wait for a hard copy, set your eyes on February 7th. It’ll also be on Blu-Ray, if anyone’s interested! You can watch the trailer by clicking here.
