Nothing about Paper Route's music is a turnoff. For the group from Nashville, a tour schedule becomes a canvas to draw more fans in and their consistency in releasing new albums becomes a reason to keep those fan checking back.
After much touring and eventual fine-tuning in the recording studio, the foursome has finally announced their newest work, Absence, which is set to release on April 28th. From hearing their new song "Carousel" from their MySpace page, the groups appears to be following the ambient synth-rock theme that Are We All Forgotten started. This style emits an expansive melody while subtly putting lyrics on the back burner, which has helped the band remain creative from EP to EP.
Previously, we became hooked to their Are We All Forgotten EP which released last summer. The five tracks threw Paper Route right on the map and on tour next month with Copeland, This Providence and Brooke Waggoner. Copeland just released their Grey Man EP last month and will be featured on all of the tour dates except April 17. Tickets for the tour go on sale on March 14, here.
