Of Mice & Men have announced the release of their new studio album “Tether”, out on October 06th through SharpTone Records. They are now streaming the albuym’s first single, “Warpaint“.
The band oversaw production and engineering duties for “Tether” themselves. Vocalist/bassist Aaron Pauley is responsible for mixing and mastering the effort, while drummer Valentino Arteaga took care of the artwork.
Pauley spoke of the single:
We’re excited to share ‘Warpaint‘ as the first single. We feel like it bridges the gap between the OM&M you’ve heard and known, and what’s to come. ‘Warpaint‘ is a heavy and anthemic song about resilience, and rallying the courage to face your fears head on.
Pauley also talked about the album:
With this one, we weren’t really focused on how it sounded as much as we focused on how it felt. And that’s a weird thing to do when all you’re working with is sound. But that was really the goal. And we walked away from making it, feeling like we’ve accomplished that.
