Description: "Black Lines"  is the fifth full length studio album by American rock band Mayday Parade. It was released by Fearless Records on Oct 09, 2015. 
"When we went into writing Black Lines, we felt like we wanted to try something new and fresh… Overall, on this album we went for more mature songwriting and created an album for ourselves and not just writing for our fans.” - Derek Sanders, lead singer of Mayday Parade
"For a band that’s constantly recreated their sound, naturally the stark new influences are sure to divide opinion. Skeptical cynics will say they’ve lost their way, mostly in anthems like ‘All On Me’, which is so moody it could easily be found on a 2003 emo classic. Others will argue that this is what they’ve always done; cruise trend after trend. But whatever your standpoint, one things a given, Mayday Parade have again proved that this is a game of the survival of the fittest". Emma Matthews
