SeeYouSpaceCowboy announce new LP ft. ETID & Underoath vocalists, share video for new song
Post-hardcore/metalcore/sasscore torch-carriers SeeYouSpaceCowboy recently released an awesome split with If I Die First, and now they've finally announced their highly anticipated sophomore album, The Romance Of Affliction, which arrives November 5 via Pure Noise. The title track features If I Die First, and they've also got guest appearances from two veterans who helped pave the way for SYSC: Every Time I Die's Keith Buckley and Underoath's Aaron Gillespie. Pure Noise-signed rapper Shaolin G is on there too.
The first single is "Misinterpreting Constellations," which stays true to the sound that SYSC have been crafting over the past few years, but also marks a clear push forward. It's one of their most accessible songs yet, with an unabashed embrace of adenoidal mid 2000s emo-pop clean vocals, but balanced out by plenty of moments that are chaotic, harsh, and heavy. It blurs the lines between extreme music and poppy music, and it induces 2000s nostalgia in a way that feels fresh and forward-thinking. Listen and watch the Cameron Nunez-directed video below.
SeeYouSpaceCowboy also have a headlining tour coming up with the stacked support lineup of Greyhaven, Vatican, and Wristmeetrazor. That tour includes a NYC show on November 21 at Market Hotel (tickets). All dates are listed on the tour poster below.
Speaking of Every Time I Die and Underoath, they've got an upcoming tour together and new albums. Get ETID's on opaque lime vinyl.
