GOODTIME BOYS ‘RAIN’ STREAMING IN ITS ENTIRETY ON ALTPRESS.COM
New Full-Length Album Available May 19th from Bridge Nine
“…a cathartic journey that’s mournful, furious… wonderfully uplifting and bursting with energy, it’s everything that Hardcore should be and so much more.” – Mass Movement
Head over to AltPress.com, who hailed Goodtime Boys as “breath[ing] life and love back into the cluttered post-hardcore genre”, to listen to the band’s new album, Rain, streaming in its entirety.
Rain was recorded by the Goodtime Boys’ own Lewis Johns at The Ranch in Southampton and mastered by Alan Douches at West West Side, and features some of the band’s most aggressive songs ever written alongside some of their most melodic songs yet. The band spent several months penning the album and welcomed two new members – Lewis Johns (guitar) and Casey McHale (drums) – to the fold, which created a fresh start for the band, and the overall vibe of Rain showcases that.
Goodtime Boys formed back in 2009, and their impressive back catalog boasts multiple EP releases, including the acclaimed Are We Now Or Have We Ever Been and the What’s Left To Let Go double EP (Bridge Nine) and the most recent split 7inch with Self Defense Family (Palm Reader Records). The band has toured the globe numerous times over, with upcoming touring confirmed throughout the UK, Europe and more. Check out all tour dates below and pre-order Rain now from B9store.com/goodtimeboys.
