Album review: Of Mice & Men – Tether
California metalcore quartet Of Mice & Men squeak on low-powered eighth album…
California metalcore mob Of Mice & Men will be releasing a brand-new album, Echo, consisting of this year's Timeless and Bloom EPs, plus final release Ad Infinitum.
Following their Timeless and Bloom EPs, Of Mice & Men are combining the two – plus a brand-new one – into their upcoming seventh album, Echo.
The 10-track record is due out on December 3 via SharpTone, with the band calling it "a snapshot of the last year-and-a-half of our lives. It covers loss and growth, life and impermanence, love, and the infinite – how the most wonderful and most tragic parts of the human experience are deeply intertwined."

To mark the announcement, OM&M have also dropped a new single and video, Fighting Gravity, which Aaron Pauley says is about "learning to let go, while also recognising the impermanence and shortness of life.
"We think we're in control of so much, but we're really not, and that existential dilemma is at the foundation of the human condition."
