Well this news was somewhat unexpected. Paramore has asked to come out Asia with them in February. We’ve never been to that part of the world before so this should be interesting. Also these three shows will have a greater attendance than our last 5 weeks headlining this Summer. That’s pretty cool.

2/12 Bangkok, Thailand @ Centerpoint Studio
2/15 Manila, Philippines @ Mall of Asia Arena
2/17 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia @ Bukit Kiara Indoor Arena

It’s a sad but true fact; with life there comes death. The same can be said of musicians in that with every band there must be a disbanding. And it seems that after 14 years the time has come for our old friends in Underoath. So next January in 2013, we are pleased to be a part of a short tour that sends them on their way.

Tuesday, June 26th, 2012 by mewithoutYou in Store, Ten Stories, Update, Video

Last week the band got together a couple days after finishing out the first leg of our Summer Tour over to start assembling the first 2,000 copies of the Ten Stories Deluxe Box Sets. We had a day of set up and prep and then another two solid days of assembly and then another solid day of transportting and shipping the goods to Red Eye Distribution down in Haw River. All-in-all it was a full week of work just getting those first initial 2,000 sets out the door and there’s another 2,000 left to assemble and ship out. Which will be happening as soon as the next shipment of the actual boxes for the box sets arrive.

We’d like to thank all our friends who graciously volunteered their time in helping put these together and also to some that helped facilitate the shipping and receiving :
DJ Robinson, Jill Robinson, KJ Wagner, Mike Bachich, Brian Dwyer, Joe Hunter, Adam Malliet, Leann Gorman, Jess Hong, Scotty Krueger, Matt Chapin, Stephen Landis, Aziza Weiss, Daniel Pilger, Nate Wissler, Timmy Grant, Craig Almquist, Meg Lemiur, Nic Justice

There’s even more on the way, but we only have a couple hundred left unsold. Scoop’em up while you can over on our online store: http://mewithoutyou.11spot.com/index.php?fuseaction=item_cat.ecom_superitem_detail&item_cat_id=7166

Starting today (May 24th) in Oklahoma City we will have a limited edition tour-only 7 inch of “February 1878″ (with the b-side track “Four Fires”) available at all our shows this Summer. We are super pumped to offer this thing to fans coming out to our shows. Old-style tip-on sleeves with a lyric sheet for both songs and another, and they come on both green and blue audiophile-light colors. So if you are coming out to any of our shows this Summer stop by the merch table to pick up your copy for just $7 ($1 per inch). If we don’t sell’em all by August 18th then maybe you’ll see them on our online store.

Thursday, May 24th, 2012 by mewithoutYou in Music, Store, Ten Stories, Update

If you’ve pre-ordered a Compact Disc of Ten Stories then chances are most of you have already received your copy. Which is awesome, right? However, if you’ve pre-ordered an LP of Ten Stories I regret to inform you that we are running behind due to a major set back a couple weeks ago. When the first test pressings came in they didn’t quite cut the mustard. So we had to go back, get the album re-mastered to 24-bit files, get the the lacquer recut and get new plates and stampers made. Woo! Man… making records can be complicated at times. At that point we knew we weren’t going to be able to make the LPs and CD launch on the same day, but we figured its better to have a late LP than a poor sounding one. After all its only gonna be late once and now it can sound good forever. So stick tight with those bad boys. Don’t worry they are coming. I’m actually listening to the 2nd Test Pressing of the Standard LP right now and about to approve it with our production manager. Its the difference of night and day. So I think we made a good call.

There’s also been a lot of questions as to when the Deluxe Box Sets will ship. A lot of people think they are shipping tomorrow or have already shipped. This is not the case. We still don’t have all the pieces of the Box Set in our hands right now. We are still waiting on a majority of the pieces to come in. They should all be in the next couple weeks but we will be out on tour. So they’ll ship to Philadelphia but no one will be there to put them together and when I say put them together I mean just that. The sleeves and LPs come from one place, the 7 inches come from another, the CDs, Posters, Booklets all come from different places. So when all the parts are in we have to assemble them by hand and ship them off ourselves. It should be a couple days of work at least. So we are working hard to get all this stuff out there to our fans who have helped us make this pre-order a success. Look for the majority of those to ship at the end of June. Don’t worry it’ll be worth it.

The day has finally come. After a year of placeholders and teasers, pre-orders and EPKS, track premieres and early streams we have finally arrived on this date. We are very proud to offer to our to you our fifth album. When our contract was up with Tooth & Nail we decided not to do the easy thing and resign. The band began writing as a unit for the first time since 2008. We borrowed a lot of money and used some of our own. We entered new areas of music business that, quite frankly, none of us knew anything about. All-in-all we relied on each other to make this thing actually happen. The outpour of love and support from everybody friends and family and fans has been super encouraging and totally amazing. We just want to offer our heartfelt thanks to all of you.
For those of you that are just hearing about our new album for the first time here’s the rundown. This is our first fully independent record. It’s called “Ten Stories” and has 11 songs (see what we did there?). The album more or less (let’s just say “less”) about a group of circus animals that survive a train crash in the Montana Winter of the late 1800′s. Its actually a lot more honest of a record than that sentence lets on. So right now we’ve got a lot of options for you if you’re interested:

Right now we are all anxious counting down to when our new album “Ten Stories” is officially unleashed upon the world. Starting at midnight Eastern Standard Time (we’re from Philly after all) we will have Digital Downloads available to all the world exclusively from our website through a simple PayPal transaction. For all your early adopters who pre-ordered the CD, the LP, or the Box Set you will be receiving an email later tonight with instructions on how to get your Digital Download. It won’t be complicated. You will get an email with a link to a “secret page” where you’ll be able to enter your email address. From there you should be able to download your digital copy of Ten Stories. Its gonna be exciting.

BUY LOCAL
For all you who didn’t pre-order the new album, if you live in the US or Canada and want to get a physical copy of Ten Stories, we strongly urge you to go ou and pick up the CD at an independent retailer tomorrow. We think record stores are super important when it comes to healthy appreciation of music. Click the button below and see where you can pick up a copy nearest you. If you’re not near an indie store our Ten Stories will also be available in Best Buys around the country as well. Its not independent but it is what is and we appreciate the support anyway we can get it (after all we did ship 1,200 copies to them) and you shouldn’t feel bad in anyway if this is your only option.
