Heartsounds Begin Recording

Posted in Records on February 16, 2011

Heartsounds have hit the studio to record their upcoming album. The record is being produced by Zack Ohren and Brett Gurewitz. the record is being set for a June release. Meanwhile guitarist Ben Murray had this to say regarding the record:

 

“What can I say about this record that every other band hasn’t always said about their upcoming record? Nothing, really. But I hope you believe me when I say that the follow up to Until We Surrender has turned out to be much, much faster, a bit more technical, and definitely more melodic. I think it’s the increase in melody that makes the speed and technicality of these 12 new songs pretty unique.

All we wanted to accomplish with this second LP was to create our version of what we feel is a progressive and refreshing take on melodic punk rock, and I think we’ve achieved that. We’re definitely excited for you all to hear this new record, and we sincerely feel like it’s a natural progression of the band. Hope you’re as excited as we are!”
