SEPTEMBER 9, 2014 - BALTIMORE, MD - Have Mercy are thrilled to announce the release of their second LP, A Place Of Our Own, on October 27th via Hopeless Records. The band also premiered the music video for their new song "Spacecrafts," the first single off of the band's upcoming album. For more information please visit: www.hopelessrecords.com. Head over now to watch the video for "Spacecrafts": http://bit.ly/spacecraftsvideo.

 

In the case of Baltimore's Have Mercy, what wins out-and what ultimately astounds-is raw, unfiltered passion. The band's debut LP,  The Earth Pushed Back, was one of the most honest records of 2013-an album that fans of punk and emo from Brand New to Tigers Jaw to Taking Back Sunday simply couldn't afford to miss out on.

 

Produced by Paul Leavitt (All Time Low, The Dangerous Summer, many more), A Place Of Our Own is a refined, more muscular version of what they did well on The Earth Pushed Back - as if they trimmed the fat on some aspects of their sound while showing major growth across the board. It's an organic, sometimes subtle and sometimes very noticeable type of growth. Everyone simply sounds better from an instrumental perspective, and Swindle's gritty vocals have become only more defining this go-round.

 

The video for the first song off the new album "Spacecrafts" was shot over the course of a few days on tour, wrapping up in the bands hometown. When asked about the song, frontman Brian Swindle said, "I wrote it about a year and a half ago then went back in with Paul to reworked it. The song is about a previous relationship when everything was perfect. How we knew every thing about each other inside jokes."

 

Since forming in 2011, Swindle feels the band truly has "grown up as musicians and people and cannot wait for everyone to hear A Place Of Our Own."
