The Menzingers are back with the details of their 9th full-length album, the follow-up to 2023’s ‘Some Of It Was True’.

Titled ‘Everything I Ever Saw’, it will be released on July 17 via Epitaph.
Vocalist/Guitarist Tom May had this to say about what the record represents for the band, explaining, “So much changed in our lives and in the world while we were making this record, and somehow, it all pulled us deeper into the band and deeper into our friendship. Twenty years in and this is the most connected we’ve felt to what we’re doing. I’d always heard ‘bigger kids, bigger problems,’ and there’s truth in that, but there’s also bigger answers and deeper meaning. There’s a kind of hard-won hope you can only find on the other side of real change. In all the uncertainty of life and the world, it’s easy to go straight to cynical. Easy to say fuck it all. With ‘Everything I Ever Saw,’ we wanted to lean into all of it, head on. The whole damn thing.”
The artwork looks like this:

Whilst the tracklisting is more like this:
1. Chance Encounters
2. Better Angels
3. Romanticism
4. Other People’s Money
5. Gasoline & Matches
6. The Fool
7. Nobody’s Heroes
8. Breathe With Me
9. When She Enters My Dreams
10. Parade Day
11. Everything I Ever Saw
As you can see, it will feature the recently released ‘Nobody’s Heroes’ and the newly dropped ‘Chance Encounters’.
A heart-on-sleeve opening gambit, it’s a track that cements the power we have when we are together. Whether it is for the first time in six months or the fourth time you’ve hung out with someone this week, the result is the same. At a time in the world when all we truly have is each other, the song serves as a ointment for the endless dark. A beacon in the night that reminds us of how wonderful, surprising and unifying this life can truly be.
