The metal band with elements of hardcore, southern rock, metalcore, and mathcore - <strong><a title="Every Time I Die on Facebook" href="http://facebook.com/everytimeidie" target="_blank">Every Time I Die</a></strong> - is back with their 6th album, <em>Ex-Lives</em>, due out March 6th, 2012 on Epitaph Records. The album was produced by <a title="Joe Barresi Discography" href="http://www.joebarresi.com/Discography" target="_blank">Joe Barresi</a>, who has worked with: Chevelle, Coheed and Cambria, Tool, Matchbook Romance- among countless other great artists.
<em>Ex-Lives</em> is up for preorder with several different package options. You may place your preorder at <a href="http://cts.vresp.com/c/?Epitaph/0c813208ff/f75974fd91/65bb8fece7" target="_blank">www.ex-lives.com</a>.
In support of the forthcoming album release, Every Time I Die have posted up a music video for the single, "Underwater Bimbos From Outer Space." The video was directed by ETiD vocalist & lyricist, Keith Buckley (who also sings in <a title="The Damned Things on Facebook" href="http://www.facebook.com/thedamnedthings" target="_blank">The Damned Things</a> with members from: Fall Out Boy, Anthrax, From Autumn to Ashes).

<h2>Naptime</h2>
2012 is shaping up to be another stupendous year in music! Unfortunately along with this great announcement of a new ETiD record, also comes the sad news that Victory Records' <a href="http://facebook.com/thesleeping" target="_blank" title="The Sleeping on Facebook"><b>The Sleeping</b></a> are going on an "indefinite hiatus." Since 2003, The Sleeping released 4 full-length albums and toured the world over.

The Sleeping - "Young Vibes... Don't Run Away From Me" <i>The Big Deep</i> (2010)
In <a title="Under The Gun Review: The Sleeping Announce Indefinite Hiatus" href="http://underthegunreview.net/2012/01/05/the-sleeping-announce-indefinite-hiatus/" target="_blank">this parting note</a>, The Sleeping assured us that this is merely the end FOR NOW. Drummer - Joe, and Guitarist - Paul, are continuing to work together on <a title="it's a stick up merch store" href="http://itsastickupmerch.storenvy.com" target="_blank">their merch store</a>. Bassist - Salvatore, owns a bar and Vegan/Vegetarian restaurant in Seaford, NY, where vocalist/lyricist - Douglas, tends bar. Douglas also informs us that he recently joined a new band.
So The Sleeping are leaving us with 4 great albums of music, the prospect of a future reunion, and a new project from Douglas!
