Today, Punknews is pleased to debut the new (and final) album by Expire.
After 8 years, Expire are closing up shop. But before their final bow, the band is putting out their third and final album, With Regret and embarking on a MASSIVE tour (including a series of house shows)! The new album finds the band staying true to the tenets of modern hardcore. But whereas many bands would be tempted to be indulgent on their final record, With Regret finds the band tightening on on their sound, and making their hardest, most compact release. Plus, if you listen closely, you can hear a little bit of weirdness creeping up between these punchy riffs.
The new album is out this Friday via Bridge Nine Records and you can pre-order it Right here. In the meantime, check out the new album and the band's world tour dates below, right now.
