As momentum continues to build for the Aug. 5 release of the 15-song Time Stands Still, Family Force 5 fans can already download three Instant Grat Tracks through the pre-order campaign at iTunes, including "Sweep The Leg," which debuted at No. 1 on iTunes' Top Christian & Gospel Songs Chart, hit radio single "Let It Be Love" and hit video and single, "BZRK (feat. KB)."

Family Force 5, which has been at the forefront of driving video content throughout its career, released "BZRK (feat. KB)" May 23 as the first video from the new album. Already gathering over 385,000 views and 3,500 likes on YouTube, the video also went berserk on MTV.com, becoming the No. 1 most viewed music video on the site. The song is also the lead Rock single from the album at Christian radio. Hitting No. 14 on the chart this week, the song continues to gain spins at stations around the country, including being added to rotation recently at KRNG (Reno, NV) and WVOF (Bridgeport, CT).

Family Force 5's first Christian AC/CHR radio single from Time Stands Still, "Let It Be Love," continues its ascent on the charts as it emphasizes the incredible, life-giving power of grace. Hitting No. 12 and climbing with the biggest chart position increase this week at CHR, the single picks up new adds and increased spins on numerous outlets during the last couple weeks, including at Air 1, Sirius XM, Reach Network, WAWZ (New York), WBSN (New Orleans), WBVM (Tampa), WDJC (Birmingham), WBHY (Mobile), WJLZ (Norfolk) and WORQ (Green Bay).

Produced by Riley Friesen (Vota, Staggerford) and Seth Mosley (Newsboys, for KING & COUNTRY), Time Stands Still also features "Glow In The Dark" and more songs that Family Force 5 member Jacob Olds ("Crouton" / vocals, drums) says "step outside of the box from the way faith-based artists have traditionally sounded and worked."
