The Front Bottoms announce new album 'In Sickness and In Flames,' release new song "Montgomery Forever"

New Jersey indie rock group The Front Bottoms have announced their new studio album In Sickness & In Flames.

Revealed today, this 12-track album will be released on August 21 via Fueled By Ramen. With everything going on in the world, the album’s title took on a different meaning. “Earlier this year, we made a new album and decided to name it In Sickness & In Flames. When we were writing the album and settling on the title, it meant something completely different to us. We could have never imagined where the world would be just six months later. In true TFB style this album has developed into something of its own that we no longer control the narrative of,” the band said in a statement.

Along with the album’s announcement, The Front Bottoms released their new single “Montgomery Forever.” The accompanying music video was directed by longtime collaborator Mark Jaworski.

Pre-orders for In Sickness & In Flames are live here. This will be the follow up to The Front Bottoms’ 2017 studio album Going Grey, which peaked at number six on the Top Alternative Albums chart and number eight on the Top Rock Albums chart.
