Seattle, WA...September 21, 2009...Thousand Foot Krutch's "Welcome to the Masquerade" has already been touted as a "hit," the "best album of its genre to be released," and one of the "very best albums of the year." During its first week out, TFK's latest venture made an impact debuting on the Billboard Top 200 at No. 35 and No. 2 on the Christian albums chart. Digitally, the album spent street week in the Top 10 on the overall album and rock chart on iTunes (peaking at No. 4 and No.2).

In addition to the previously announced reviews, TFK received a 4.5 star review along with the stamp of approval from All Music Guide. This site is known as the "the most comprehensive music reference source on the planet." The review stated:

"Each track is propelled by muscular riffs, fighting its way into permanent
memory alongside the greatest mainstream rock bands of the decade."

"On behalf of the band, I'd like to say a big THANK YOU to everyone for all of the tremendous support around the new album," shares TFK frontman Trevor McNevan. "It's really been an exciting week, and it feels great to be introducing the new songs live on the Creation tour. We're mixing up the old with the new in this tour set and it's off to a great start!!"

This past weekend, TFK hit the road for the opening weekend of the Creation Festival: The Tour with Jars of Clay, Audio Unplugged, This Beautiful Repbulic, B.Reith and FMStatic. Playing to almost sold-out crowds (1700+ in Wichita, 1500+ in Longview), TFK introduced new tunes along with classic fan favorites. It was an incredible weekend of ministry and music as more than 50 kids were sponsored through Compassion International and more than 100 came to accept Christ.

"We are excited to see how well the crowd is responding to this tour and artist line-up," shares Nick Kulb, producer of Creation Festival: The Tour. "Additionally so, the artists are thrilled to be touring together, and we are looking forward to a tremendous fall tour!"
