Official press release:
UK pop-punk act, Homebound is kickstarting a brand new chapter today, announcing their forthcoming EP More To Me Than Misery, due out August 17th via Rude Records. More To Me Than Misery follows their 2017 release, The Mould You Build Yourself Around also via Rude Records. Vocalist Charlie Boughton had this to say about the forthcoming record:
“More To Me Than Misery draws on the many pitfalls when searching for happiness in love and life. Last year was possibly the best and worst year of my life for the very same reasons and you begin to fear the very things that once made you who you are. Honesty is a strong theme throughout the record, not just lyrically but I feel it transpires right through to the very core of everything we did with MTMTM. We treated the whole process like it was the last thing we might ever do as a band and I believe that’s made for the best collection of songs we’ve written to date. There’s certainly no hiding the fact that it’s a sharp change from the previous Homebound but it’s definitely the closest representation of the band we want to become.”
To mark the occasion, the band have dropped a brand new single, “Coming Clean” which is about the anxiety one feels in an inevitable confrontation. Charlie adds it is about:
“The over-thinking and played out scenarios we mull over and over in our heads until we realize there’s nothing left to do but say what needs to be said.”
Pre-orders of More To Me Than Misery EP are now available at this location. In addition, they are thrilled to announce their UK headlining run with Broadside and Milestones for August 2018.
