New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ RoadRunner Records) Vancouver rock band
Theory of a Deadman are currently mounting their return to the rock scene with their fourth studio album, The Truth Is⤦ The album is due out July 12th via Roadrunner/604 Records and was recorded at Bay 7 in Los Angeles with producer,
Howard Benson (My Chemical Romance, 3
Doors Down). The band is currently road-testing some of the new songs while on tour, including "Lowlife," which is the first single, set to land at radio in mid-May.
A lot has transpired since the release of 2008's breakthrough, Scars & Souvenirs. Through a pair of #1 singles in the form of "So Happy" and "Bad Girlfriend" as well as "Not Meant To Be" landing Top 5 at Hot AC, their patented, arena-sized hooks and non-stop touring with the likes of Daughtry, Motley Crue, Godsmack and everyone in between, the album earned Platinum status the old-fashioned way. The band aims to keep the momentum going with The Truth Is⤦ which cycles through an array of infectious anthems and mid-tempo rockers that don't scrimp on sense of humor and even a ballad or two!
"Musically, not too much changed," said vocalist/guitarist Tyler Connolly about The Truth Is⤦ "We had a bit of an epiphany when it came to songwriting though. We've been a band for over a decade now, and we realized what we're doing makes sense. There was a lot more confidence. I was able to dig in lyrically and be wide open. When I write, I either want to kiss someone on the lips or punch them in the face. Anything in between is boring."
Theory are currently touring and shaking the foundations of venues across America with labelmates Stone Sour as part of the first annual Avalanche Tour. Theory will embark on a headline run this summer, as well.
Theory of a Deadman are Tyler Connolly [Lead Vocals, Lead Guitar], David Brenner [Rhythm Guitar], Dean Back [Bass], Joey Dandeneau [Drums].
