[Untitled] Album, EP, and Tour
When mewithoutYou began writing for their 7th studio album they didn’t know they’d be entering into one of the most prolific periods of their career. The year long course of writing resulted in over 20 songs, only 14 of which were brought into the studio with producer Will Yip. But during in the recording process, the band continued to write and develop the other material eventually expanding to 19 tracks, tipping the scales into 'double album' territory. As a result the band divided up the material into two distinct releases: The aggressive and chaotic full-length and a conversely pensive and melancholy EP, both untitled. This [untitled] e.p. reflects an uncommon style for the typically heavy mewithoutYou as they use instrumental space and electronic elements to create a rock album with an explicitly meditative intent.
Over their career mewithoutYou the Philadelphia experimental punk band, has always put a premium on progression, never anchoring themselves to a single sound and instead gleefully wandering across genre lines. It’s that same spirit that informs the band’s upcoming seventh album [Untitled], their second for Run For Cover Records, as well as the accompanying EP. Across both releases, mewithoutYou come away with a body of work that is downright revelatory but still mighty fun. It can be heard in the music as well as Weiss’ words, as he plumbs the depths of his soul and encourages listeners to do the same. It’s why mewithoutYou’s music has endured for so long, and why the band remains a pacesetter in the world of thoughtful, aggressive music.
[Untitled] will available online and in stores October 5th and [unititled] e.p. is available now online and will in stores October 5th as well. You can pre-order your copies now on mewithoutYou.com and runforcoverrecords.com.
