Chicago’s own The Lawrence Arms will release Metropole, their first album in eight years, on January 28, 2014 via Epitaph. A beloved band in the punk scene from their inception in 1999, members Brendan Kelly (vocals/bassist), Chris McCaughan (vocals/guitar), and Neil Hennessey (drummer) have released five studio albums to date. Their sixth album and first with Epitaph, Metropole captures “that alone-in-a-crowd, stranger-in-a-strange-land kind of shit” according to Kelly.
