Background

Mayday Parade released their fourth album, Monsters in the Closet in October 2013. [1] While touring in support of that release, vocalist Derek Sanders thought the group was "beginning to become too predictable", [2] and in an interview with Kerrang! , he claimed that Monsters in the Closest sounded "very similar" to their past material. [2] This view was also expressed by the band's guitarist, Alex Garcia. [3] For the follow-up album, Sanders "really wanted [it] to feel like something different." [2] A turning point for the band came when they recorded a cover of the Bush song "Comedown" for the Punk Goes 90s Vol. 2 (2014) compilation album. [2] The band tackled the song differently from their other recordings, recording it live-in-the-studio. [2] Sanders thought this was "a much rawer way of recording" that the band haven't previously done. [2]

Composition

While the group, according to Garcia, "experiment[ed] with co-writers" in the past, they wanted to "become more internal", [3] writing all of the songs on Black Lines by themselves. [4] Kerrang! writer Paul Travers noted that while the band's past works were collections of pop rock songs, Black Lines had "a rawer, grittier sound with a more dynamic approach" to song structures. [2] The album's sound has been described as emo, [5] emo pop, [6] pop punk [7] and rock. [8] "One of Them Will Destroy the Other" features guest vocals from Real Friends' vocalist Dan Lambton. [9] "Letting Go" is about "self pity and not having the strength to get over a bad relationship. It's about that weird spot when someone breaks you down even though you know they're toxic." [10]

Recording

In March 2015, the band started recording [11] at Dreamland Recording Studios near Woodstock, New York with producer Mike Sapone. [4] The studio was in fact a converted church. [3] Guitarist Brooks Betts used his Fender Telecaster guitar, which has been used on all of the band's albums, while Garcia used his Gibson Les Paul and Fender Stratocaster guitars. [3] The pair used a Marshall JCM800 amplifier. [3] The pair used a number of effects pedals and frequently "switch[ed] them out", according to Garcia. [3] One of two specific pedals they used was the Supermoon Reverb, which Garica "absolute love[d]". [3] The other being the Kilobyte, which was used to create a lot of the ambient sounds heard on "One of Them Will Destroy the Other" and "Hollow". [3] Despite this, they wanted to "avoid cluttering the sound" as much as possible. [3]

Lambton recorded his vocals for "One of Them Will Destroy the Other" while Real Friends had an off-day from touring. [12] The initial plan for the song was to have Lambton and Sanders do call and response vocals throughout it. [12] On May 21, it was announced the band had finished recording. [13] All of the songs were mixed by Vince Ratti, except for "Look Up and See Infinity, Look Down and See Nothing", which was mixed by Sapone. [4] Claudius Mittendorfer and Sapone engineered the proceedings, with assistance from Zachary Casper and Bella Blasks. [4] Stephen Marcussen mastered the album. [4]

Release

On July 17, 2015, Black Lines was announced for release, with the track listing and cover art revealed. [14] The artwork was done by Wolfstache with art direction from Florian Mihr. [4] On July 30, [15] "Keep in Mind, Transmogrification Is a New Technology" was made available for streaming. [16] A video for the song features an artist re-creating the album's cover art. [17] A day later, it was released as a single. [18] On August 28, a music video was released for "One of Them Will Destroy the Other", [19] directed by Caleb Mallery. [20] On October 1, "Letting Go" was made available for streaming, [21] and was released as single a day later. [22] Black Lines was released on October 9 through Fearless. [23] [nb 1] In October and November, the band is set to headline the 2015 edition of the Alternative Press tour, [17] with support from Real Friends, As It Is, and This Wild Life. [25]

In January and February 2016, the band went on a tour of Europe and the UK, [26] with support from the Maine, Have Mercy and Beautiful Bodies. [27] In March and April, the band went on a co-headlining US tour with the Maine with support from Better Off [28] and the Technicolours. On March 29, a music video was released for "Letting Go". In May, the group performed at Slam Dunk Festival in the UK. [29] Before embarking on the 2016 Warped Tour, [30] a music video was released for "Let's Be Honest" on June 24, directed by Dan Fusselman. [31] In July, the group appeared at the Alternative Press Music Awards. [32]

The album charted at number 21 on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart [37] and at number 32 in Australia. [38] Sam Law of Kerrang! wrote the album highlighted the band's "absolute best bits", specifically mentioning "Hollow", "Underneath the Tide" and "All on Me". [39] Law pondered about "hit singles" before concluding the group does not need "them when your record's as good as this throughout." [39] Writing for Rock Sound , Mischa Pearlman wrote the band showed off "their versatility [...] to varying degrees of success." [6] In some songs, such as "One of Them Will Destroy the Other" and "Keep in Mind, Transmogrification Is a New Technology", the group "cruise[d] comfortably [...] in full-on emo-pop mode." [6] In others, namely "Hollow" and "All on Me", the band are "far more interesting and exciting." [6] Overall, Pearlman closed with mention this "all makes for an ultimately uneven and unfocused journey, but one still worth investigating". [6]
