BEC Recordings’ Kutless releases their fifth full-length album, To Know That You’re Alive, today with radio gravitating to the new singles and media applauding musical and lyrical dynamics.

Known for their hit songs such as “Strong Tower” and multiple format singles, Kutless continues this success with the new album. Debut AC and CHR single “Complete” is new and active with increased spins, while the debut rock single “The Feeling” entered the Rock chart this week. The aforementioned rock single was a free download in May through the band’s web-site resulting in more than 22,400 downloads.

Connecting with listeners this week, 25+ stations are participating in street week promotions, interviews and giveaways at all formats. Powerhouse station, Air 1 is featuring the band on the morning show with CD giveaways as well as other key stations participating in interviews in such markets as Fish Portland, WAWZ (New York, NY), Total Axxess (WAY-FM Network), WJIE (Louisville, KY), WBSN (New Orleans, LA), KBNJ (Corpus Christi, TX), and WJQK (Grand Rapids, MI).

Here is a taste of what the media have to say about the new album:

“The same Kutless we know and love, but with subtle changes. The band, like the individual members, has grown over the years and growth means change. Personally, I think that this is one of the best albums Kutless has released. Look out world, Kutless is back and they are most definitely alive!”

”’To Know That You’re Alive’ is without a doubt one of Kutless’ strongest releases, and could easily render itself candidate for Album of the Year. One of the album’s strong points is that it remains versatile to both heavier and more melodic tracks, and with that said, the future seems nothing but positive, and “To Know You’re Alive” will expectedly be well received by both fans and critics alike.”

“Kutless is one of those groups who have shown they have what it takes to stick around and gather a huge following. Their latest project proves that they still have a lot to offer in way of that energy and professionalism. To Know That You’re Alive is a nice mix of hard rock/metal and pop rock that is sure to add even more weight to that legacy.”
