The emo giants recently returned to cover Radiohead at their first gig with former drummer Zac Farro in seven years, have also promised to tour in 2017. Giving fans an update on their fifth album, the band said: “following up our self-titled album didn’t seem like it was going to be an easy task and, unsurprisingly, it was not. the problem about comparing yourself to… yourself… is that even though it’s better than looking elsewhere, you’re still looking in the wrong direction.”
