Of Mice & Men are back with new music.
The band – Aaron Pauley (bass and vocals), Valentino Arteaga
(drums), Alan Ashby (guitar) and Phil Manansala (guitar) – have just
announced their upcoming album Tether, which is due out on October 6
via SharpTone.
Now eight records in, frontman Aaron explains that, “With this
one, we weren’t really focused on how it sounded as much as we focused on how
it felt. And thats a weird thing to do when all you’re working with is sound.
But that was really the goal. And we walked away from making it feeling like
we’ve accomplished that.”
Today (July 28), Of Mice & Men have unveiled lead single
Warpaint, which Aaron says “bridges the gap between the OM&M you’ve heard
and known, and what’s to come. Warpaint is a heavy and anthemic song about
resilience, and rallying the courage to face your fears head on.”
