When we made Discovering the Waterfront there was something so special about the process. We’ve made the last 3 records essentially the same way. The process was get in a room, jam it out and let it come out how it comes out. This time we’ve decided to switch it up and write an entire album instead of just a collection of songs. We’re considering the flow between songs and transitions a lot more, and lyrically this record will tell a story. It will be a concept album.

Somebody’s Gonna Miss Us DVD
Hello TSL fans…
We’re in the process of putting the finishing touches on our first official TSL DVD. The “Somebody’s Gonna Miss Us” DVD will be released sometime after the new year, and we’re looking for something that we need your help with.The last TSL show was at Bamboozle, if you were there, and took photos, we’d love to possibly use them for the DVD…more specifically, we’re looking for a shot of when we finished the set…it was a pretty intense moment and we’ve love to have it on this DVD.
If you have any photos from that show, please email them to:TheStartingLineAreDead@yahoo.com
Include your name and email address, if your photo makes it in the DVD, we’d love to hook you up with a copy.
We’ll be setting up a flickr page with all the photos as well…and will let you know when it’s up and running. Hope you’ve been great, can’t wait for all of you to see the DVD!
-Matt
