Academy Is Tentative Release Date

[Jason Tate]

The Academy Is (http://www.absolutepunk.net/theacademyis)' new album will hit stores April 3rd (http://www.absolutepunk.net/calendar.php?do=getinfo&e=2188&c=3). Get excited.

[williamnot]

awesome! Unfortunately though, I feel a big disappointment coming along. =/

[overoverme]

I hope 'the Fever' is indicative of the next album.
I'm excited.
Jokes about William aside, this band doesn't seem to get enough attention. Panic totally soaked up everything on their last tour...

[sirenonthe101]

yay!

[shes.a.ghost]

I really liked them until I saw them live... their singer just annoys the shit out of me.

[jmg85]

Can't Wait. but for some reason, i'm feeling that it won't be as good as Almost Here. That album was incredible. and it'll be real hard to follow.

[bobbo8]

Meh.

[Jason Tate]

awesome! Unfortunately though, I feel a big disappointment coming along. =/
Butch Walker producing? Hmm.. I'm eagerly anticipating this one.

I have a feeling by the end of January a single might be somewhere online. ;-)

[saveyourshows]

what ive heard from this new stuff is crap.

[TasonJate]

wow, this just made my night

[thatwasamoment]

Butch Walker producing? Hmm.. I'm eagerly anticipating this one.

I have a feeling by the end of January a single might be somewhere online. ;-)sweet. i was about to ask if anyone knows when a song will be released.

absolute exclusive ?

[summeroflike]

i dont know why people think this is going to suck. almost here was amazing and butch walker is producing this. i expect this to be a solid album.

[Jason Tate]

absolute exclusive ?
Cross your fingers. We're close to getting it.

[konstantine94]

I am really looking forward to this. Cartel also said they would be releasing some mp3's this year so I'm stoked.

[rhinitus]

Cross your fingers. We're close to getting it.

haha until you spilled the beans!

im excited for this album like WOAH

[lalalalovely]

Sweet, I'm really stoked now, my nigh just got that much better. Should be a great follow up.
By the way, I read in Blender that the album title was gonna be "Chop Chop" but there's still no way to be sure yet.

[AP_Punk]

dats coo, mang.

[LCincala]

already pumped.

the academy is... are underrated.

[garlicgirl1210]

oh, i am excited.
and yeah, i am pretty sure it is going to be "chop chop" and pretty great.

[lipslkemorphine]

now i can go to sleep. i cant wait!

[sparklebitca]

They're not my favorites, but Almost Here was pretty fucking catchy and they do a hell of a live show. I'll look forward to the next tour.

[yo la tengo!]

Bomb!

[takeweakme]

i don't know how i feel about these guys. i bought their cd and it just doesn't do much for me.

[riseagainstit14]

Can't Wait. but for some reason, i'm feeling that it won't be as good as Almost Here. That album was incredible. and it'll be real hard to follow.
agreed.

[mrs. will pugh]

oh wow.
i am so excited.

[falloutdrea19]

i've heard sketchy things about this album...i'm kind of scared to hear it. i loved "almost here," but this is going to be different.

[Cue the Sun]

I'm so excited for it

[sdbrown]

Butch Walker producing? Hmm.. I'm eagerly anticipating this one.

I have a feeling by the end of January a single might be somewhere online. ;-)
and, from the rumors, his guitarist stepping in.

and the album is called Chop Chop. It was on something sent out by FBR so I think that makes it pretty valid.

[DefyYouStars]

already pumped.

the academy is... are underrated.

Haha, i would have just gone with "the academy is...underrated" to make it clever but I agree with you completely so respekt!

[Cliff Diver]

I loved their debut. Let's hope this album delivers as well.

[Steps&Numbers]

I just hope that song they released for the summer photos is not indicative of anything they're doing with this album. Because that song sucked hard.

[sdbrown]

I'm also really really hoping this album doesn't suck. I like where they were going with the Fever but we really haven't heard anything new that was of any quality since the last album.

edit: whoops. I forgot about that toasted skin song (for the best, really). I hope the new stuff doesn't take anything from that.

[im 2*Sweet]

im excited, but bummed tomrad isnt in the band anymore. it will be interesting to see if this changes the band's sound in any way

[falloutdrea19]

i don't think there enough people from chicago posting in this thread...
anyways. what i've heard is...don't expect this album to be "almost here" dos.

[keeplioving]

I really dislike the name of the album, but I'm still excited for it. they've always been a great band.

[dan.is.empire]

im just getting ready for a cd that will be as good as the first one. that will make my day.

[music_is_my_boy]

ooh awesome! can't wait! should an awesome follow up TAI are an amazing band and should be able to come up with a follow up to "Almost Here" with no probs. :-D

[Stop!TheRadio]

This has made my day, earlier in the week I was talking about when this was gonna get released. Not too long now!

[IsraeliPunkGirl]

no:(
I wish it would come out sooner.
[April is so far away:(]
I can't wait for new songs!

[-whisp-]

[SecrectsLost]

Yes this and The Almost come out on my b-day, can't wait.

[Beloved Broken]

[KB3RG]

awesome news, can never get enough of TAI

[zerock]

ok im going to get excited

[chokeychicken]

people are really that excited about this band?

seriously?

their lead singer has breasts.

..you know that, right?

[mutiny]

the day after my birthday. eh, i might be more excited when they release some songs, but i'm not a big fan of almost here.

[amyanne]

oh I'm very excited.

[RememberFminus2]

this band writes laughable songs in my opinion and they are horrendous live.

[blimpcityhero11]

Anyone know if they are doing a full band version of "The Fever"? I could've sworn I read that they were, but I'm incredibly excited for this either way!

[petey536]

awesome

[soberasacobra]

Anyone know if they are doing a full band version of "The Fever"? I could've sworn I read that they were, but I'm incredibly excited for this either way!

pretty sure they are. they played it full band on warped and their tour before warped.

[colorlesscliche]

In 2005, an unheralded Chicago band called Fall Out Boy jumped from indie label Fueled by Ramen to the majors and became one of the year’s biggest success stories. Now their buddies The Academy Is… want to follow in their footsteps. TAI spent November in Silverlake, California, recording their major-label debut, tentatively titled Chop Chop. “America is a very chop-chop place right now,” explains singer William Beckett. “With the Internet and TV and everything, everyone feels so rushed and pressured — there’s always something else on your plate.” The album is due in March, and while Beckett has lent his pipes to several other projects, don’t expect any big cameos. “We need to introduce ourselves to the world as individuals first,” he says. “Maybe then we can talk about having Madonna hang out with us for an afternoon.”

[FOBPrettyNPunk]

Another good spring release.

[PaintMeBlue]

awesome...i'm looking forward to this.

[ACA]

Almost Here is splendid pop-rock. High hopes.

-ACA

[failingwithease]

Aw, yay. That's my birthday.

[ThePurpleHearts]

im excited, but bummed tomrad isnt in the band anymore. it will be interesting to see if this changes the band's sound in any way

I highly doubt it, since I'm pretty sure Tomrad didn't even play on the album, and neither did The Butcher.


Anyway, I hope this doesn't disappoint me because I've really been looking forward to this. I also hope that they decide to change the name of the album at the last minute. AND I really hope they dont pick up that Australian dude that used to play in Butch Walker's band.

[ihatecayte]

that's delightful. i'm stoked. not as stoked as i am for fob or rk, but stoked none-the-less.

[bradyreier]

Almost Here is splendid pop-rock. High hopes.

-ACA

agreed.

[xpolaris]

i'm looking foward to this one.

[crit]

...
April 3...just a few days away from March...it's not too much of a stretch.

I was told 3/13 but I guess it's been pushed back since that.

[Branevember31]

sweet...i cant wait for it

[backstagebethy]

mmmm can't wait.

[beckettlove]

people are really that excited about this band?

seriously?

their lead singer has breasts.

..you know that, right?

I know you're entitled to your own opinion but come on. William looks a little girly but it doesn't mean you can make remarks like that.

[Loch_Doun]

cool, thats sooner than i expected

[falloutboy.]

i cant wait for their awesome live shows to be back out on the road.. this is exciting.

[Matt_Dizzle]

Sexyy. sooo excited

[thesiz]

average band, huge ego.

has william gone through with his sex change yet?
