Of Mice and Men have announced their third studio album Restoring Force will be released on the 27th January 2014. Produced by David Bendeth, the album is the follow up to the band’s 2011’s acclaimed release The Flood, which solidified the California-based five-piece as a leading force in modern heavy music.
When asked about the album the bands front man Austin Carlile said:
“What happens after a disaster? What happens after The Flood? You return to normal. You find balance again. That’s what we felt like we were doing with this album. We wanted this record to bring equilibrium back to our band and music. We’re letting everyone know that we’re here to stay. We’re Restoring Force.”
