Boston post-hardcore outfit Defeater have announced of their new full length album. The band will release the new effort, Letters Home, on July 16th through Bridge Nine records. Defeater frontman Derek Archambault had the following to say about the upcoming album:
“Inspiration for this record came from a few places. Much like with Lost Ground, these stories are based around my two grandfathers’ service in WWII. Musically the record hearkens back to Travels and Lost Ground. EDSN was a bit of a departure for us, and I think we took some good chances on that record but Letters Home brings it back to why we started this band in the first place five years ago.”
