The Flatliners - Inviting Light (2017)

Every now and then a band comes along and speaks to the hearts of adolescents everywhere, as the true voice of their community. In the punk rock community, The Flatliners are that band right now.

In an age when overnight internet sensations are an everyday occurrence, it’s hard to find a band that’s grown organically, using word of mouth and non-stop touring to win fans over one show at a time. Since 2002, The Flatliners have been busy touring the world over with the likes of NOFX, Bad Religion, Pennywise and Hot Water Music, as well as multiple stints on the Vans Warped Tour. “Inviting Light” is the band’s 5th full-length album and is easily the band’s strongest material to date. “Inviting Light” includes 12 melodic, catchy songs that will stay stuck in your head for months to come.

To support the release, The Flatliners will be touring North America with Weezer, followed by a European tour with The Menzingers. The band will continue to tour relentlessly throughout the release.
