Solid State Records has announced the signing of Ohio metalcore favorites MISS MAY I.
The band will release the 15th anniversary edition of its classic, beloved album “Apologies Are For The Weak (Re-Recorded 15th Anniversary Edition)” on August 23.
The anniversary edition has been entirely re-recorded and features cameos on every single song, ranging from Jake Luhrs of AUGUST BURNS RED, Brandan Schieppati of BLEEDING THROUGH, Scott Lewis of CARNIFEX, and many others.
Today, the band has shared the anniversary version of album closer “Forgive And Forget”, featuring singer Ryan Kirby and bassist Ryan “Tuck” O’Leary from FIT FOR A KING. Listen below.
“When it came to choosing which song went best with each one of our friends, this match up was the first one that came to mind,” the band shares. “We have become brothers with FIT FOR A KING over the years and having not only Kirby, but also Tuck, as well, made this track such a celebration of the song. Their dynamic, alongside of Ryan and I in ‘Forgive And Forget’ was meant to be.”
The band also created a throwback website in conjunction with the release. Send your friend request here.
