Misery Signals have announced their first new album in five years. The record is titled Absent Light and is due out July 23, 2013. The band opted to self-release the album this time around, and raised money for recording via an Indiegogo campaign which more than doubled their requested $50,000 with a $104,060 raise.
After their label - Ferret Records was absorbed by a Warner Music Group in 2010, Misery Signals took a hiatus to pursue individual side projects with singer Karl Schubach focusing on metal outfit Solace, guitarist Ryan Morgan founding the hardcore/punk band Burning Empires and drummer Branden Morgan starting The Company We Keep. The band's last release was Controller in 2008.
The band has also announced some tour dates.
