The Front Bottoms - You Are Who You Hang Out With (2023) Hi Res

The Front Bottoms return with their first new album since 2020's "In Sickness & In Flames." "You Are Who You Hand Out With" arrives on August 4 via Fueled By Ramen and coincides with the 10-year anniversary of the band's breakthrough 2013 record, "Talon of the Hawk," which they will tour in celebration of. The lead single, "Outlook," combines all of the best parts fo the Front Bottoms aesthetic: The track begins with a self-titled-era acoustic arpeggio only to explode into a "Back On Top" era jam session. Brian Sella, whose vocals haven't changed a bit in the last 15 years, is at peak form heere, as he glides atop backing harmonies turning in every sonic direction. To top it off, drummer Mathew Uychich keeps at a blistering pace with Sella and, together, they roar towards the album's triumphant finish line.
