Mayday Parade ANYWHERE BUT HERE

Audio Mixers: Dan Korneff; David Bendeth.Arrangers: Mayday Parade; David Bendeth.Released two years after the departure of founding member Jason Lancaster, ANYWHERE BUT HERE is Mayday Parade's first album for a major label. Lancaster wrote the bulk of the band's debut--the very album that helped secure Mayday Parade's contract with Atlantic--but his former bandmates prove to be capable songwriters in their own right, as ANYWHERE BUT HERE wields a radio-ready mix of emo anthems and sensitive ballads. David Bendeth, a hyper-prolific producer who rarely works with bands outside of the emo/punk realm, lends his signature polish to the effort, resulting in an album that's both familiar and marketable.
