Album review: Of Mice & Men – Tether
California metalcore quartet Of Mice & Men squeak on low-powered eighth album…
Listen to the title track from Of Mice & Men's upcoming album Earth And Sky
California metalcore crew Of Mice & Men have announced details of their new album Earth And Sky.
Earth And Sky will be the band's sixth full-length record, the follow-up to last year's Defy record, and the second since the departure of founding vocalist Austin Carlile.
Along with the album news, Of Mice & Men have released a new video for the title track.
"'Earth & Sky' is a song about resilience," says vocalist/bassist Aaron Pauley. "It's about understanding that you can rise above whatever it is that keeps trying to drag you down, no matter what. For me, a lot of the time, I'm writing about battling with my own mind. For you, it may be a person, or an obstacle, or a circumstance.
"Regardless of whatever it is that's trying relentlessly to drag you down, I hope this song empowers you to rise above it with authority, like it does me every time I sing it."
