Everything I Ever Saw

Pre-Order Item. Release Date Subject to Change.

Release Date: 17th July

The Menzingers are that type of band you discover one day and suddenly they're an important soundtrack to your life in the same way one may connect with Bruce Springsteen, The Replacements or even later contemporary Sam Fender. It's heart on the sleeve tales of the struggles of life and love, family, work and the dreams you collect and lose along the way. With each record they feel like there's a real groundswell to these veterans who before you know it are doing arenas. 

Everything I Ever Saw finds THE MENZINGERS entering a new era in what's
already been a storied career
The Philadelphia punk legends' eighth album chronicles moments of significant
change-- the personal, the political, and the universal-- while returning to the core
creative principles that first put them on the map with listeners the world over. Twenty
years in, the Menzingers have discovered that the wisdom gained with time's passing
is even stronger than the emotional armor they once wore in their youth, and
Everything I Ever Saw captures the quartet embracing the here and now while
strengthening the bonds that have held them together.
THE MENZINGERS have always created as a four- headed unit, with all members
(vocalist/ guitarist Greg Barnett, vocalist/ guitarist Tom May, bassist Eric Keen,
drummer Joe Godino) throwing in their respective talents as part of the craft--but for
Everything I Ever Saw, the group worked in creative symbiosis more than ever before.
"The way we made this record feels the most like how the band was in the very
beginning: Me and Tom coming to the band with the most basic element of a song,
and the four of us shaping that," Barnett says.
Instrumental in building that excitement was locally centered and nationally renowned
production legend Will Yip, who threw in with the Menzingers on 2017's After the Party
and their sonically expansive 2019 record Hello Exile. This time around, Yip once
again became an unofficial Menzinger while the band crafted these 11 songs in their
South Philly space. "Working with Will was like a homecoming," May beams while
talking about Yip's contributions. "We've grown up together over these years, and we're
still incredibly close friends. He's the best at gassing you up and making sure
everybody's on the right page, but he's also so good at pointing out stuff that might
not fit the vision without being a fucking prick. He's the hardest working person that
we've come across in the music industry, and he's incredibly inspiring."
