Star City Meltdown returned to the studio with producer Brett Hestla in April of 2011 to begin work on their follow-up to Stick In The Eye. When asked about the new album in a recent interview, Bassist Cody Cupp described it as "Much more mature and dynamic. It's everything our fans love about Star City Meltdown, but it's certainly much different than Stick In The Eye. The songs are heavier, but they still contain great melodies and hooks. We can't wait for everyone to get their hands on this record."
Star City Meltdown is currently touring the country, and has plans for a national tour to support the release of the upcoming album. The new album will be available for purchase in-stores and online July 5th.
Congratulations

We've made it now
Your doubts about us never prevailed
Seems how you thought
We're going down
Got the secrets but
I'll never tell
A new beginning
So catch on and recognize
We're all here now
We own this night
Star City let me see you rise
Well all along I knew
It wouldn't take us too long
To get this right
So congratulations
You win the prize
For saying I would fail
You wait for
I'm sorry it ended up like this
You wait for
Someone who never noticed you at all
It's my intentions
To make it clear
And put you
Where I think you belong
I hope it haunts you
Day by day
Now that you have shown me your ways
A new beginning
Is upon us now
So catch on and recognize
