Yellowcard just released their seventh studio album earlier this year called When You're Through Thinking, Say Yes. They surprised all the fans when they released acoustic album today. It is already available on iTunes. Physically it will be available on October 31.
They made a statement about the album on their site saying:
Over the course of our career, Yellowcard has always taken pride and enjoyment in
performing our songs in an acoustic setting whenever possible. Last year when we
finished recording “When You’re Through Thinking, Say Yes”, we decided to record
a few of the songs to be used as b-sides here and there. Shortly after the
release we noticed the incredible response that the acoustic version of “Sing
For Me” was getting online. We thought, “what if we recorded all the songs this
way and tried to get Hopeless Records to release it as an acoustic version of
the entire record?” Lucky for us they seemed to think that was a great idea.
We began using every free day or night we had in early 2011 to finish recording
all ten songs acoustically. One of the things we are most proud of is that we
produced and mixed this entire record on our own. (Much credit is due to Ryan
Mendez for his sleepless nights behind the computer.) This is something the band
has wanted to do for a very long time and we have been looking forward to
surprising all of our fans with this record. It is the least we can do for the
amazing support they have given us as we try to rebuild this career that we love
so much.
So here it is, “When You’re Through Thinking, Say Yes (Acoustic). It has been a
hard secret to keep these last few months but we are confident that our fans
will keep this album close to their hearts. It is both a huge accomplishment for
us as a band, and a massive thank you to all of the people who continue to stand
behind this band. We hope you love it."
