Title
The title of the album makes reference to the instrumental band members coming "full circle" with Scott Stapp to reform the band. The title track is about the Creed reunion and how it feels to be together as a band again.
Tour
The 2009 Creed Reunion Tour began on August 6 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and concluded on October 20, 2009, in Hidalgo, Texas. Originally, Flyleaf and Fuel were to be the opening bands, but the New Zealand band Like A Storm and Hoobastank opened for Creed in the first leg of the concert, while Lo-Pro and Staind opened for the second leg, with Saliva doing the last five dates and Like a Storm returning near the end of the tour. This reunion tour featured all of the original members of the band as well as the former Submersed guitarist Eric Friedman, a friend of Mark Tremonti's who performed rhythm guitars and backing vocals. The band played five songs ("Overcome", "Rain", "Bread of Shame", "Full Circle", and "A Thousand Faces") from their album Full Circle, as well as old hits throughout the tour. The band later went on to play "Suddenly" during their 2010 Summer tour, and "Time" during their 2012 Summer tour.
On October 24, 2009, it was confirmed by Scott Phillips that Creed was to go on a world tour in April 2010, starting in Australia and New Zealand, followed by South America, Europe, and Canada/North America. The tour dates were released on April 19, 2010.
The album received mixed to positive reviews from critics. Some critics stated that they appreciated the "new, heavier, darker side of Creed". Full Circle debuted at #2 on the Billboard 200, selling 111,000 copies in its first week.
