The Menzingers - Hello Exile (October 4, 2019) Album • Page 12

definitely feels like Casey and After the Party had a baby and given those are two of my fav Menzos songs I'm very happy

 

Did anyone post this yet?

 

Cool video, actually made me like the song a lot more. Was hoping the Boner Forever tag made it into the video

 

Was just wondering when this first single would come out, glad it was before I see them at the end of the month. Stoked to hear it live.

 

Still saying $15 shipping for me so I'm gonna pass for now.

 

Simple, but great track. Of course another Menzingers ear worm. I'm hovering over the sunburst preorder now............

 

Yes Tom because punk status must be maintained despite our growing climate crisis.

 

I had to clear my cart and refresh to get the cheaper shipping to show up... and then it wouldn’t let me actually place the order. I would just get this from my local store but I really want that postcard flexi too.

 

Our black Levi's 510s scoff in the face of ecological disaster.

 

I moved to the black skinny jeans from H&M because they're like $40 cheaper than Levi's lol.

 

i miss being able to fit into h&m jeans

 

Media mail should be available now

 

Media mail worked for my order

 

The cuff goes up one fold for every 3 degree's we're warmer than normal in the month of July.

I've had bad experience with H & M, but I've never bought jeans from there.

 

Quick everyone post pictures of jeans I'll go first

 

I love the new video. I’m excited to see them in October!

 

Damn they added a MN show after I had already bought tickets (and a hotel) to see them in Milwaukee.

Guess I’ll see them twice!

 

Shit, just saw the Culture Abuse stuff last page. I really hope they address this...

 

Wanted one of the shirts but couldn’t justify the extra $10 in shipping so copped only the vinyl. Will buy a shirt at the gig.

Wonder if tigers jaw will put out new music too or if they will still be supporting Spin

 

So stoked for this.

 

Full press release. High res cover.

Philadelphia-based punk band, The Menzingers will release their sixth studio record Hello Exile on October 4 via Epitaph.

The album arrives as the follow-up to the band’s 2017 critically acclaimed release After The Party, which debuted #19 on the Billboard Top Current Albums Chart and #67 on the Top 200. In creating the album, the band again joined forces with producer Will Yip (Mannequin Pussy, Quicksand), spending six weeks recording at Yip’s Conshohocken, PA-based Studio 4. “That’s the longest amount of time we’ve ever worked with Will,” notes vocalist Greg Barnett. “We wanted to make sure these stories didn’t get lost in the music, so we kept it to a lot of room sounds with the guitar and bass and drums.” Pre-orders for Hello Exile are available here.

The band has released the video for the first single off the forthcoming record, “Anna”. On the track, The Menzingers turn their incisive songwriting to matters of love and romance, exploring the glories and failures of human connection. A wistful piece of jangle-pop, “Anna” paints a portrait of lovesick longing, complete with dreamy recollections of wine-drunk kitchen dancing.

On Hello Exile, The Menzingers take their lyrical narrative to a whole new level and share their reflections on moments from the past and present: high-school hellraising, troubled relationships, aging and alcohol and political ennui. With the band achieving that soul-baring intimacy all throughout the album, Hello Exile emerges as The Menzingers’ most emotionally daring work to date.

Featuring singer/guitarists Greg Barnett and Tom May, bassist Eric Keen, and drummer Joe Godino, The Menzingers formed as teenagers in their hometown of Scranton in 2006, then later relocated to Philadelphia. The band made their Epitaph debut with 2012’s On The Impossible Past, which was voted Album of the Year by Absolute Punk and Punk News. Arriving in 2014, their fourth album Rented World was praised as “packed with clever songwriting” by The New York Times and “a colossal fist-pumper” by Stereogum. In February 2017, The Menzingers released their fifth album After the Party, which landed on best-of-the-year lists from outlets like Clash and Noisey, with Stereogum praising its “almost unfairly well-written punk songs.”

 

Hoping we get a Tom song along with Anna at these upcoming shows

Way more hyped to see them in 2 weeks with new material

 

AbsolutePunk getting press release mentions, even beyond the grave.

 

THEIR LAST ALBUM CAME IN #2 HERE; WE STILL EXIST YOU COWARDS!
