Acclaimed hardcore act Modern Life Is War has wrapped up work on the debut for Equal Vision. The record is titled Midnight in America and is due out August 21, 2007. It was produced by J. Robbins and is the follow-up to Witness which was released in 2005.

The band, which calls Marshalltown, Iowa their home, will be touring this summer with He Is Legend and Maylene & The Sons of Disaster. They will be joined by House of Fools on the first half of the tour, and Paulson on the second.

Expect Modern Life Is War to be carrying a two-song sampler of Midnight In America on the road with them featuring the songs "Stagger Lee" and "The Motorcycle Boy Reigns" from the new album.
