New Christmas Album From Underoath

Though DBW hasn't been active the last few days we have been hard at working trying to get the inside scoop... our main problem is right now everyone is getting ready for fall tours. The only news we have to report is that Underoath is currently in the studio recording the new album "Hardcore Holidays". With ,what we are sure, is an unconventional Christmas record Underoath will take us from classics like Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer to Silent Night. How will a band focused on screaming lyrics take Silent Night...we assume not so silently.

Veggie Tales 2008 : Who will survive??

In a sad day in Christian media when Phil Vischer and Mike Nawrocki, creators of the Veggie Tales, announced that in the next DVD episode one of the main beloved Veggies will die. Though they wouldn't reveal which Special Hotlines will be open for grieving Children. The Veggie Tales have been such a large part of all our lives I will for sure shed a tear during this special episode. The Veggies have never dealt with death of a loved one so the Big Idea team thinks this will be a good way to teach kids a lesson and put a character to rest... Most speculations rule out Bob the Tomato & Larry The Cucumber, these two are just to big to kill off. Junior Aspargus is likely, he is a character that was already suffering from public humiliation. His plush version was made availible in stores and sold nearly a tenth of Bob & Larry.

"We are just ready for another chapter in a Veggie Tales. One where we can introduce new characters in a darker environment. The worlds changing with Christian music leading toward the dark side we figured it was time to do the same with the Veggies."

The DVD hits stores this Christmas!

GMA Dove Awards Annouces Nominees for 2008, 2009, and 2010

Though rumors have always flown around about the "END of the Dove Awards". An official statement made by John Styll, the President of the Gospel Music Association, did not announce that the Doves were ending BUT that at the 2008 Dove Awards will not only give out the awards for 2008 but for 2009 and 2010.

Though some would say that this is just another sneaky way of trying not to loose more money the GMA assured us that they "just find it practical. If you look at the last 5 years the same people have been nominated for the same awards. It just makes sense. Also, with only 4 nominees to each category we'll either see 1 loser or 1 huge winner!" We have included the list of nominees. A red * with be placed by the names of nominees who have been previously given a nod in either the 2007 or 2006 awards.

Jars of Clay Frontman Releases first Children's Book

Dan Haseltine, lead singer of the grammy award winning band Jars of Clay, is releasing his first Children's book this September. The book is set for release on Sept. 15th. "I think will be good to introduce the younger audience to Jars of Clay and to me. Our fans are getting older and now thats it's been 12 years since Flood we need to reach that audience" said Haseltine. Though we were not given a pre-release of this book to review, we were given the title and the artwork. The book is called "The One, The Only, Magnificent Me and My Band" and features artwork that appeals to a younger audience. The question on everyones mind is

Are Jars of Clay turning into the Wiggles?

We aren't sure but Dan assured us that he wrote this book with pure intentions to reach Children with positive uplifting messages. "I wanted to write a book that reminded children that I am amazing and wonderful, and it has everything to do with me...and my band.... being alive, and having a heart and a mind and a soul. All children need to know that I am magnificent – with or without feathers.”

Well with that feathers ending we can only assume that Dan's book will be Flying High this September.

Disicple going through some changes. CHRISTIAN ROCK IS DEAD!

With the recent success of the new single "After the World" which shows a very light and much more radio friendly version of Disciple the band has decided to officially end their reign as the kings of underground Christian rock. With the new tour and new album coming in 2008, we will find the members of Disciple recording songs that " mix Brian Littrell, Mercy Me, Michael W. Smith and KJ-52" states the bands official statement.

Though Disciple will always have some rock roots its hard to look at the Littrell, Mercy,Smitty and KJ and not come up with a boy band. We assume after their tour with Family Force 5 they decided to turn to something like that. We are a little shocked and disturbed by this news. Without Disiciple who will grab the crown of the underground? Our thoughts... no one.
CHRISTIAN ROCK (as we know it) IS DEAD!
