MADINA LAKE TO RELEASE SECOND ALBUM
Chicago alt rockers Madina Lake are pleased to announce Attics to Eden as the title of their second full-length for Roadrunner Records. The band is currently holed up in New Jersey's House of Loud Studio, working diligently on the pre-production stages of the album. David Bendeth (Paramore, Underoath, Hawthorne Heights) is set to produce and mix Attics to Eden.

 Attics to Eden follows up the band's 2007-released debut, From Them, Through Us, To You. Madina Lake -comprised of vocalist Nathan Leone, bassist Matthew Leone, guitarist Mateo Camargo and drummer Dan Torelli-lived on the road in support of the album, logging countless miles on their tour van, performing everywhere from pizza joints and basement parties to the second stage of 2007's Projekt Revolution Tour and last summer's Warped Tour, cultivating a core of fans so dedicated that to call them "rabid" would be an understatement. 

Nathan Leone sheds a little light on the recording process, saying, "After spending the last three months at home in Chicago shaping songs, we're finally tracking our second record. The record's title is Attics to Eden because, lyrically, most of the tracks explore different ways to find psychological refuge in a world that is moving faster than ever. It also serves as the second installment in the story of Madina Lake." Regarding the band's choice of producer, Leone says, "We picked David Bendeth because his track record implies that he has the gift of seeing a band's vision through.  For as many hits as he has, his focus lies more on the personality, individual character and musical ambition of artists, as opposed to chasing radio or trends. That is exactly in line with our philosophy, so were expecting a solid match.  We are absolutely ecstatic to share this with as many people as possible."

 Roadrunner expects to release Attics to Eden in 2009.

Hey Tom, thanks for your wonderful insight into the music industry. How would Roadrunner ever have done anything without you? Madina Lake are really talented musicians. Their songs are well thought out both musically and lyrically. They are catchy, and they have a lot of fans. So if that's being a gay emo band, then I wanta be too. Stop relying on labels and put downs to get you off. Listen to music for what it is and stop harassing.

why the fuck is this band even on your label. Looks like roadrunner sold out and signed a gay emo band to stay up with the trends and make themselves some quick cash.
