Buffalo, New York's favorite party dudes Every Time I Die have officially announced the release of a new weekly episodic series entitled “Sh*t Happens: The Series?”. This latest endeavor into international debauchery finds the boys again teamed up with Space Monkey Studios to bring you the finest in unapologetic tomfoolery. “The Series?” will premiere with a recap of their previous releases (including cult classic “Sh*t Happens”, “Party Poopers” and “The Dudes and Don’ts of Recording”) on July 14, while the first full episode will air on July 28. Fans can stream the series’ theme song now at link>
Over the next 12 weeks, Every Time I Die will unveil episodes that are packed to the gills with impromptu footage showcasing the band’s signature brand of humor that has made them infamous amongst their fans and peers alike. This is by no means a scripted reality show containing foreseeable plot twists and over-dramatic story arches. Nor is this your typical live band DVD that focuses on the tedium of tracking a record or the self-congratulatory tales of what inspired their lyrics. Instead, “The Series?” focuses on what it is exactly that drives 5 individuals from similar backgrounds to forfeit family and friends and take to the road year after year for the sake of their craft. Whether you’re a fan of music or simply an admirer of the nomadic spirit that resides in all of us, “Sh*t Happens: The Series?” will make you feel at home.
“We never set out to be funny on camera,” says guitarist Jordan Buckley. “We set out to make good music and make people come to our shows. This is like a spinoff. This is the “Empty Nest” to our “Golden Girls.” “This isn’t like a concert,” adds bassist Josh Newton. “It’s us being idiots.”
Every Time I Die’s fifth studio album and Epitaph debut, New Junk Aesthetic , is out now. The album received rave reviews from the European music press: Kerrang! gave it 4K’s and said it was “capable of setting alight almost any dancefloor” with its huge mix of southern rock, punk anthems and more. Rock Sound UK simply called it “stunning”(9/10), proving time after time that they are one of the most consistent bands in their scene.
