Of Mice & Men are back in the studio and already “over halfway done” with their next album
October 11, 2018
Wait a second, it was in January this year that Of Mice & Men dropped their latest album Defy. Are they already back in the studio? Yes, they are! The band is working with a renowned producer Josh Wilbur (Trivium, Lamb Of God, Gojira). The musicians aren’t resting on laurels: they’re actively writing “heavenly and absolutely demonic” music (via Loudwire). According to the band, they’re already “a little over halfway done”.
[quote align=”center” color=”#COLOR_CODE”]“We’re super pumped to be in the studio with Josh, as we’re all big fans of his production and mix discography,” says singer/guitarist Aaron Pauley “When we decided to go heavier with this album, Josh’s was one of the first names to pop up — and I can tell you, we’re a little over halfway done and it’s sounding huge and heavy, heavenly and absolutely demonic — all rolled into one.”[/quote]

The band’s tour life is extremely active this fall. Of Mice & Men are currently making appearances as special guests on Papa Roach tour and touring Europe with Bullet for My Valentine the rest of the time. In February the group is teaming with Nothing More for a U.S. trek with support from Badflower and Palisades.
The early 2019 run is kicking off February 21 in Phoenix. Intrigued? Check out the list of their nearest US dates and February-March dates below. Go here for tickets.
