Voices by Matchbook Romance

Voices, the second album from Poughkeepsie's Matchbook Romance, came out on Epitaph on February 14, 2006, with John Goodmanson producing. They had spent a year and a half on the road, barely stopping, before recording began in April 2005, and you can hear the miles on it: where their debut, Stories and Alibis, kept things lean and stripped-down, this one goes dark and ominous, all looming post-hardcore dread with emo still bleeding through the cracks and drummer Aaron Stern pounding under the storm.

"Monsters" was the single, and the one that reached the countdowns, with "Surrender" sent only to radio.
