Back in 2003, guitarist Ian Love parted ways with the New York post-hardcore outfit RIVAL SCHOOLS after the release of their debut LP and two years of extensive touring. With the addition of longtime friend and musician Chris Traynor, the new lineup spent the next year writing and recording in various studios around New York. The bits and pieces that leaked onto the Internet, often with made-up song titles, were referred to as a "lost album" – and now, those tracks have been remastered and will see release as "Found", out April 9th on United By Fate.
The creation of "Found" was a different process than previous albums said singer Walter Schreifels: “All the material for "Found" was written, developed and recorded within a few months, whereas "United By Fate" took years,” said Schreifels.
Schreifels attributes burn out from touring and recording, along with label difficulties as the reasons "Found" got lost. But seeing how fans reacted to the leaked tracks, Rival Schools decided to formally release the album. “…I came to appreciate that the fans who managed to get a hold of "Found"
really seemed to hold it dear,” said Schreifels.
Take a listen to one of those cuts, "Indisposable Heroes", a steady-paced rocker that grows anthemic under the weight of a haunting, jagged-edge guitar riff.
