The band shared the following:

🚨 NEW ALBUM + KICKSTARTER ANNOUNCED 🚨

It is with EXTREME EXCITEMENT, and without further hesitation- We will be releasing our LONG OVERDUE new album 'I Feel Like I'm Becoming A Ghost' on July 28th. We're doing this entire release ourselves. We've already started the process, but we still need your help. We've created a KICKSTARTER, and are asking for your support.

With what has happened to us label-wise over the years, we decided to take control of our own narrative. This band is the most creative and revitalized we have felt in a very long time. We're ready to show you all.

For this Kickstarter, we've created some tiers, including vinyl pre-orders, and special items, to give back to you and your donations as best as we possibly can.

We have always been a band that stayed true to ourselves, and this time is no different. We are exploring this new freedom of being a fully independent artist.

We hope you see these donations as more than transactional. We have been dancing with the idea of a Kickstarter for quite some time, and have finally decided that this is what will be best for our band, and for all of you. This feels like more of a direct, personal thank you for your love and support throughout these 20+ years of our history.

Thank you so much for everything you have done for us.

'I Feel Like I'm Becoming A Ghost' is going to be something truly special.
