With a wider, brighter, and wilder sound than anything they"ve done in the past, this record adds walls of guitars, organs, and even a few "ballads" (a.k.a. slightly pretty songs) to the mix, while still retaining the gritty post-pop-punk sound for which they"re globally famous. Recorded in the band"s hometown of Portland, OR by Fugazi"s Brendan Canty.
