Also he discusses playing the Revolver Golden Gods Awards in Los Angles back in April, the bands reaction to how well the fans and critics have embraced "The Powerless Rise," songs that almost didn't make the record and future touring plans. PLUS LIVE performance footage! "The Powerless Rise" was released on May 11, 2010 and reached as high as #10 on the Billboard 200.
