Heartsounds (ex-Light This City) will hit the studio to begin recording their new album with Zack Ohren and Bad Religion‘s Brett Gurewitz handling the production duties. Band guitarist/vocalist Ben Murray offered the following on the outing, which is set for a June release date through Epitaph:
“What can I say about this record that every other band hasn’t always said about their upcoming record? Nothing, really. But I hope you believe me when I say that the follow up to Until We Surrender has turned out to be much, much faster, a bit more technical, and definitely more melodic. I think it’s the increase in melody that makes the speed and technicality of these 12 new songs pretty unique.
All we wanted to accomplish with this second LP was to create our version of what we feel is a progressive and refreshing take on melodic punk rock, and I think we’ve achieved that. We’re definitely excited for you all to hear this new record, and we sincerely feel like it’s a natural progression of the band. Hope you’re as excited as we are!”
