Soul Glow left to pursue new creative opportunities. Below you can watch his farewell video and read what the band has to say.  This is what the band said about the whole event on their blog. Thank you Soul Glow   "As a family that has played together and prayed together for countless years, we know that our fans expect Family Force 5 to continuously evolve.  It is out of respect to that encouraging sentiment that we will be making changes in the line-up of Family Force 5.  As of today, Solomon will be coming off the road, and Jacob will be transitioning into the position of lead singe

    Hey, how's it going? Just wanted to tell you guys about the new music video Skillet made for their song "American Noise". Also, Skillet has released a lyric video and a behind-the-scenes video for the song. "American Noise" is off Skillet's new album, Rise. The song talks about shaking off one's problems and making something better of their life. It really is a beautiful song; yes, this does mean it is not a typical Skillet rock song. :) You can watch these videos below.
