The band typically convey a pop punk sound (alternative rock that combines power-pop melodies and chord changes with speedy punk tempos and loud guitars), and often combine this with elements of hardcore punk such as breakdowns and gang vocals. In 2008 they released Tip of The Iceberg, an EP which is arguably the band’s most obvious display of their melodic hardcore influences, with both original songs and covers of bands such as Gorilla Biscuits, Shelter and Lifetime. They have also explored a more classic rock style, driven by melody and chord progressions with 2006′s Coming Home.
Their sixth studio album, Not Without a Fight was released on March 10, 2009, and was produced by Mark Hoppus. It was released through the band’s new label, Epitaph Records. Hoppus has said that during recording, NFG has felt like a different band altogether. Bearing “a whole new enthusiasm about music,” he notes that the band “wanted to come out swinging” on their new album.
The lead single from the album is called “Listen to Your Friends”. The music video for the song was filmed in Los Angeles. The single was released December 23, 2008 in the U.S. & a day earlier in the UK, both via iTunes & AmazonMP3. The band will be releasing an split EP with Shai Hulud titled Not Without a Heart Once Nourished by Sticks and Stones Within Blood Ill-Tempered Misanthropy Pure Gold Can Stay being sold only at the “Not Without a Fight” tour. There are two colors limited to a total of only 500 copies and only for sale from either Shai Hulud or New Found Glory at these shows.
Concert starts at 7:00pm… rock on
