This week’s premieres feature a Canadian worship leader and the return of Marcos.

P.O.D., the multi-platinum, Grammy® nominated rock band, is back with its most aggressive, poetic effort to date.

When Angels & Serpents Dance, produced by Jay Baumgartner (Evanescence, Godsmack), redefines what a hard rock album can be.

Beyond critical acclaim, this powerful and imaginative album will most certainly energize fans. From unforgettable rock anthems like “Addicted” and “Shine” to the timely and insightful ballad “Tell Me Why”. When Angels & Serpents Dance is the arrow aimed to strike at the heart of a post-modern MTV/Much Music generation.

Marking the return of guitarist Marcos Curiel, this new album is a refined creativity set to an urgent soundtrack reflecting today’s urgent times.

For Canadian singer/songwriter/worship leader Matt Maher, there is nothing more special about his call than anyone else’s, and like those before him, he is trying to live that same call, as his 12-track debut album’s title states, to be made Empty & Beautiful.

Maher breaks open these two simple words on the project in songs that are both corporate and reflective; driving and soft; each one telling the story from a different perspective.

Several of Maher’s songs have been recorded by other artists including “Your Grace Is Enough” (Chris Tomlin) and “Unwavering” (Bethany Dillon).

Although Matt now makes his home in Arizona, he was born and raised in Newfoundland.

Matching songbook also available, arranged in the popular Piano/Vocal/Guitar format and also includes chord chart arrangements.

Empty & Beautiful will be specially priced at $14.99 or less at your local Canadian Christian retailer. Both albums will be available this coming Tuesday, April 8th. Keep track of all the new and upcoming releases via your own personal copy of the April New Music Tuesday poster.
