    Of Mice & Men recently let one of their fans, Cassy, hear their new album early. Cassy as diagnosed with brain cancer and told she only has a few months left to give. Truly a heart warming story of the power of music. With all the negative stories in the news sometimes it’s just nice to be reminded of good things.

    Like to story about the guy that got to see The Force Awakens early. Super touching and I hope the best for the girl(and the band).

    This is definitely an OM&M thing to do. Good for them, and I hope it made a difference for the fan. Cancer is the worst.

    Now, I wonder if Austin's "screaming" still sounds like he is using a vibrating object up against his throat as if he smoked forever and needs it just to be able to talk at all. That is how it sounded on the last album.

    I heard they also put the audio of her clapping along to one of the songs on one of the tracks. Such a great thing for Austin and the gang to do. Not a huge OM&M fan, but they've always had my respect because they're such great dudes.
