Red City Radio Announce New Album + Tour
I LOVE THIS BAND. Red City Radio just announced the upcoming release of their sophomore album, Titles, to drop October 15th via Paper + Plastic Records. Check out the album teaser below and keep reading n shit.
On top of announcing the new record, the band has also announced a slew of new tour dates with Big D and the Kids Table. Included in the tour dates is, but of course, Fest. The Gainesville festival is a common stop for these dudes, and I hope I can make it again this year. You can check out some of my coverage from last year’s festivities.
Red City Radio’s debut full length, The Dangers of Standing Still, made it into my Top 10 Albums of 2011 so don’t miss that shit either. You’ll read quotes from other websites that put them in their top 10 from that year, but they’re all stupid and PWV is the best so don’t ever forget it.
A statement from the band can be read below:
We know we’re overdue for a new full-length. We realized that when we were on tour with The Ataris last year. So after we toured with Broadway Calls at the beginning of this year, we settled down and started writing a new record. We knew we had to do something better this time; something different in terms of song craft and delivery, and that added a lot more pressure. It was also our first time recording without the help of Stephen Egerton. But with the very talented Kendall Stephens producing, and our bassist Jojo assisting, we decided to take some risks. The end result is a punk-rock record that’s reliant on the “rock” side of things. There’s lots of vocal melodies, like you’re used to hearing with Red City Radio songs. But this album is a lot more personal, and there are a lot of things on here that our fans haven’t heard from us before. We think it’s our bets work, and we hope you like it.
