Hailing from Cincinnati, Ohio, the Indie-punk are set to release their sophomore album Ordinary Silence, out through No Sleep via Shock Records on June 28, 2013.
It’s been a busy year for MIXTAPES. Almost a year ago to the day of the upcoming release for Ordinary Silence they made a splash with their debut full-length, Even On The Worst Nights, which quickly catapulted the band to the forefront of indie-punk as one of the most exciting bands to hit the scene in years. And now, only a short year later, the prolific band returns to crank up the volume for fans with a raw, heartfelt album that could prove to be their best yet.
MIXTAPES turned to engineer Eric Tuffendsam once more to produce Ordinary Silence at Moonlight Studios in Fairfield, Ohio. After working closely with Tuffendsam on Even On The Worst Nights, MIXTAPES were able to emerge with fourteen cohesive songs that maintain the band’s signature sound while showing growth and maturity for a dynamic sounding album.
