Metalcore vets Miss May I have confirmed some major developments within their camp. Among the first of which is their recent signing to Solid State Records. Along with the start at a new label, the band is revisiting an important milestone, marking the 15th anniversary of their formative debut album, Apologies Are For the Weak.
Rather than reissue the album, the band has confirmed they have re-recorded the album entirely, recruiting several special guests to loan their talents in revisiting the original 10 tracks on the release.
Among names joining in on the effort, Miss May I have landed Garrett Russell of Silent Planet, Scott Lewis of Carnifex, Jake Luhrs of August Burns Red, Brian Wille of Currents and many more for the re-release of the album due out August 23rd on Solid State.
