ANNOUNCE NEW ALBUM ‘HALCYON BLUES’ OUT 8/7.

​Citizen have returned! The Toledo, OH-based rock powerhouse have announced their new album. They have always been determined to follow their own path, taking creative risks and challenging expectations at every turn. It’s all led to new LP, a dynamic, confident release that draws on nearly two decades of musical and personal growth to emphatically declare what their dedicated fans already know: Citizen are one of our great modern rock bands–and they’re at the absolute top of their game. To celebrate the album’s announce, band have shared a massive lead single. It’s a bold cut of technicolor alternative that steadily builds from a dark, pulsating bass line into the kind of euphoric chorus that few bands can come close to achieving. Prepare to hit repeat because the best rock song of the summer just arrived a little early. 17 years into an impressive career, group still feel like underdogs who have never quite fit in. The band have had an unlikely rise from a group of Toledo high schoolers to long-running headliners capable of selling out shows around the world, and they got there through persistent sonic evolution. Over the years they’ve moved deftly through raw emo, menacing post-hardcore, anthemic alternative, garage-y indie pop, and so much more, now ‘Halcyon Blues’ combines elements from throughout their entire catalog together into a singular and instantly satisfying record that just sounds like Citizen. They have also announced a massive run of worldwide tour dates in support of new relase. First the band will be hitting the road in September with support from Anxious, Hotline TNT, Rocket, Cryogeyser, followed by the UK and EU with Modern Color, then Australia with Drug Church.
