5X Platinum-certified alternative rock mainstays THE RED JUMPSUIT APPARATUS released their sixth album X’s For Eyes via Better Noise Music on October 3 along with their latest single, Perfection.
Against the track’s intense driving rhythm and a big, urgent melody, lead vocalist, guitarist, and founding member Ronnie Winter sings “Whatever won’t break can make us” with his signature wide-ranging voice. Today (October 17), they’ve released the song’s evocative video ahead of their two performances this weekend—Saturday, October 18 and Sunday, October 19 — at the When We Were Young festival in Las Vegas as part of the band’s nationwide tour.
THE RED JUMPSUIT APPARATUS has teamed up once again with director Shane Drake (Panic! At The Disco, Paramore), who was behind the camera lens for the False Pretence and Your Guardian Angel videos from the band’s 2006 double – Platinum debut album, DON’T YOU FAKE IT.
“What’s really exciting is that we basically rebuilt the same team for X’s for Eyes that we had when we made DON’T YOU FAKE IT,” says frontman Ronnie Winter. “A lot of the people who were behind the scenes back then–working on things like A&R, mixing, track sequencing, artwork and now videos–have come back together, nearly 20 years later, to be part of this new album. It feels like a reunion in the best possible way. If you were a fan of DON’T YOU FAKE IT, we think you’re going to really love this album.”
