Does anyone know if there’s an award for excellence in pop-punk and emo? Not to brag… but we are “out-standing” in the field! 😉🌾

Mayday Parade has released seven studio albums to date, with “What It Means To Fall Apart” being their latest one. The album, which was released on Nov. 19, 2021, features twelve tracks that tackle themes such as heartbreak, loss, and hope.
The band shared that they took a more introspective and experimental approach to songwriting for this album, which resulted in a more personal and raw sound.
“I’m super proud of the album. It’s another step forward for us and for me. My goal with our new music is to build upon what we’ve established as our sound, our feeling as a band and also build on top of that and go into some new places as well, and try out new things and experiments. I think this album accomplishes that pretty well,” shared Mayday Parade’s Derek Sanders.
Mayday Parade has a loyal following in the Philippines. The band has performed for massive crowds at the Samsung Hall at SM Aura Premier in 2016, and at the New Frontier Theater (formerly known as KIA Theatre) in 2017 .
