Thousand foot Krutch released their new album OXYGEN:INHALE yesterday, and frontman Trevor McNevan spoke with NewReleaseTuesday to speak about the record and 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.

The vocalist told NewReleaseTuesday he had no idea what was coming for the Exhale album, but they had already worked on a few songs for it. He also said his pop/punk side project FM Static is on a "temporary hold" as the main focus is TFK. He does expect an album to be coming out for them sooner or later.
