Christian rock band Thousand Foot Krutch became the week's top selling rock artist with their new album OXYGEN:INHALE as it hit the top 10 on the Billboard Charts.

Being No. 1 on the rock charts makes them No. 7 overall on the Billboard charts as well as No. 1 on the iTunes Rock Chart and 5 overall.

Their hit single "Born This Way" has been played at NASCAR and college events. The song helped the band gain over 1 million views last month.

Last week, Frontman Trevor McNevan spoke with NewReleaseTuesday about the record and his upcoming plans.

"I got kind of a vision for the concept of this record before any of the songs--about a year, year plus ago--about oxygen, and there'd be an inhale and an exhale," McNevan shared, "So we were originally talking through some different ideas about putting both of them out on the same day, two new records in one day and all this stuff, and we kind of came back around to just we're going to do Inhale now and Exhale later."

He said he asked himself the question of what oxygen actually means, and the answer he kept getting from God was, "breathe through me," no matter what walk of life someone is going through. Even though the central theme of the album is oxygen and breathing, McNevan would not consider this a concept album.

"I wouldn't. To me it's something that has a common thread I think throughout the record, and it's something that does symbolize this part of our journey as a band. It's been a refreshing one. But overall man I think it's more just about the idea of living life to the fullest, and kind of living every day like it might be our last. And the way that we treat people, the way that we love people. And I think that's kind of the heart of these songs," he explained.
