We Came As Romans
Jun 17, 2015
"The World I Used to Know" is the latest single from the rock group, We Came As Romans. The track features a new direction for the band. Void of any aggressive vocals, it boasts a sound meant to fill arenas. The band will be releasing their self-titled fourth full-length studio album on July 24th via Equal Vision Records. The album was recorded with multi-platinum award winning producer David Bendeth (Bring Me The Horizon, Paramore, Of Mice and Men).
"Writing this record with David Bendeth was very intense," says vocalist Dave Stephens. "If a song wasn't great, it was rewritten until it was, and if it still wasn't great, it was cut. We wrote close to 40 songs for this record and only ten made the album. Beyond becoming better writers and musicians, it made us stronger as a band and as a team."
Formed in Michigan, We Came As Romans consists of David Stephens (vocals), Kyle Pavone (vocals), Joshua Moore (guitar), Lou Cotton (guitar), Andrew Glass (bass) and Eric Choi (drums). The group has seen major success with worldwife catalog sales exceeding 300,000 units. Their first two full-length albums "To Plant A Seed" and "Understanding What We've Grown To Be", have each surpassed 100,000 units sold in the US. Their most recent album, "Tracing Back Roots", debuted at number 1.
This summer, We Came As Romans will perform on the Main Stage at the 2015 Vans Warped Tour which kicked off earlier this month. Then they will tour all over the US in support of their forthcoming album.
