In a recent posting, Matchbook Romance has announced a little about what to expected from their upcoming sophomore full length for Epitaph. The album, titled Voices is the follow up to Stories and Alibis and is due out next year on Valentines Day, February 14th.
The is currently in the studio recording the album and had this to say:
The new album is a huge step out of the realm of our scene and our previous record, "stories and alibis". While Stories was written with the message, "yield to love", I feel that Voices is somewhat a couterpart but also embarks on stories of betrayal, nightmares, ghosts and of course a little love.Musically it completely surpasses Stories by a landslide. We have matured as musicians and have definitely fine tuned our style to hopefully contribute to the volution of music, and not stall it like so many bands of today. The record also has a much darker vibe than our previous album. It constantly presents this feeling that your stuck in a dream world, and at the same time it also posses this feeling like your constantly being chased. i hope that our current fans as well as new fans will fall in love with this record.
Shortly after the completion of recording, the band has announced a tour with Armor For Sleep, Lovedrug and Gatsbys American Dream. The tour will begin on October 27th.
