Every Time I Die have posted an update on their forthcoming debut for Epitaph Records. The record is titled New Junk Aesthetic. Guitarist Jordan Buckley posted this:

There’s a pretty good chance that you’ll be finding a pile of brand new original drawings of mine all over New Junk Aesthetic, the fifth full length cd from Every Time I Die, and the first on Epitaph Records. makes sense, right?

i don’t think i could be more excited. over the past month i have been making some lyrically influenced illustrations to coexist with the music, and it’s going better than i could have planned. the big wigs at Epitaph saw my doodles and confirmed that we are onto something big here, from all angles. this also explains my lack of updates; it’s not that I haven’t been drawing, it’s just that the drawings are top fucking secret! so since i won’t be able to give you anything new to look at for a while, i am forced to make my updates word based, located specifically at twitter.com/jordanetid.

The band released The Big Dirty in 2007.
