VIDEO: Silverstein Tour Update #1

Hey guys,

We just wrapped up our tour this weekend with Silverstein, Madina Lake, I See Stars & Closure in Moscow. We had so much fun on the tour, we can't believe it's already over! We wanted to thank all of the bands and most importantly, each one of you that made it out to one of the shows! While on the road we filmed a crazy amount of footage that we used to create 2 tour video updates. You can check out the first video below to see all that went down while we we're on the tour. We'll post part 2 next week, so keep a look out for it! For those that didn't get a chance to see one of the shows, don't worry because we'll be going right back out on the "You'd Be Way Cuter in a Coffin" Tour with Alesana, From First To Last, Asking Alexandria and Memphis May Fire. We're jumpin on the tour starting November 29th, so check our Myspace to see if we're playing a show near you.

Final Studio Video Update!

Hey Everyone!

So by now everyone SHOULD know that our new album "Empire" has been out for a couple of weeks now, we hope all of you guys have a copy and that you are digging the new tunes. We are really proud of the songs and love all the great feedback we have been getting.

Also we know it is kind of late, but we have finally posted our final studio video on our Myspace Blog. Go check out the video and let us know what you think.

Thanks for all the support, we really do notice!

"Empire" is Out Now!

TWA fans our day is finally here! You guys have been so incredibly patient and supportive over the last 14 months or so, you are just as much a part of this as we are. "EMPIRE" hits stores today as well as on iTUNES. Whether you go to a store and grab a physical copy (or 20 haha) or if you feel like just owning our EP digitally, we just ask that you try and support our first ever release.

We have the best fans out there, and it's rare that after only 14 months of being a band to have such passionate and dedicated fans like you guys. We couldn't be happier with how our cd came out, recording with Andrew Wade was an experience we'll never forget. By the way he's recording a album in Rome pretty soon, so go tell him thank you and not to forget his pocket of TWA he carries around ;)

Overall, we just can't say thank you enough. We appreciate all the support, the myspace comments, messages, twitter posts, RT's, and everything else you guys do for us on a regular basis. We have some HUGE things coming up for us in the Fall and Winter, which will just mean getting to see more and more of you! So today, let's celebrate this release together, because it's all of ours. We love you guys, and if you're in Arizona, we hope to see you at the CD RELEASE SHOW @ The Sets tonight.

Last but not least, we want to thank our amazing record label, Fearless Records for believing in us, pushing us, and making our dreams come true. We want to thank our incredible manager Jerry Clubb (who's Birthday is today so go send him a myspace message!) for being exactly what we need, and our booking agent JJ Cassiere who's doing his best to get us on the road to see all of you. Make sure you let all those people know their hard work is appreciated!

Much love,
Telle Tony A Dusty Nick Tony P & Zack
