December 1 street date. Dream To Make Believe is the debut album by the American rock band ARMOR FOR SLEEP, originally released in 2003. With its emo, post-hardcore stylings, the album merges introspective lyrics with complex, layered instrumentals. The narrative arc, revolving around dreams, sleep, and reality, exhibits a thematic cohesion, making it a significant contribution to the mid-2000s emo scene. Standout tracks include the title song “Dream To Make Believe” and “My Town.” First pressing of their debut album on vinyl (limited green vinyl no less).
December 1 street date. Lead singer Ben Jorgensen shares : “We are very excited to include some previously unreleased B-sides on the deluxe, 15-year anniversary vinyl pressing of What To Do When You Are Dead. The B-sides we chose to include were demos written and recorded around the same time as the album that we never got to formally polish and fully produce for one reason or another. After a certain amount of time we shelved the songs from this particular era in our history, but over the years we’ve listened back to some of them and thought that one day it would be cool to share them with the people who were fans of the album. We think these extra songs might share some of the same DNA as the songs on the album itself, and we hope they might evoke a similar sense of nostalgia in listeners who might be listening back to the album. We also chose to include some early demos of songs that we wound up re-recording for our first two albums for any of our fans who are interested in rough/early recordings. 15th Anniversary Edition. Packaged in deluxe triple gatefold jacket. Features a 7”x7”, 12-page booklet. Double LP on black vinyl. Rare and previously unreleased demos. Artist notes and song history in liner notes.
