The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus have announced they are releasing a deluxe version of their album ‘X’s For Eyes’, and have shared one of the new additions.
That comes in the form of ‘Angels Cry’, a tear-stained ballad of sorts that feels like the perfect soundtrack for every heartbreak that occurred in 2006. It is beautifully dramatic but wonderfully hopeful, the feeling that even though something is coming to an end, you’re glad that it happened in the first place. Such realisations are universal and timeless, which is exactly why the song is perfect for the past as much as it is the present. And who knows where the future is going to take us.
Vocalist Ronnie Winter had this to say about the track, stating, “‘Angels Cry’ is a bittersweet story of love and loss in early teenage years. As an adult, I’ve learned these things are natural, but when you are young, it feels like the end of the world. Turns out it was just the beginning.”
The deluxe edition of ‘X’s For Eyes’ will be released on March 06 via Better Noise Music. In addition to the original tracklisting, it will include four new songs. On top of ‘Angels Cry’, that also includes ‘Not Today’, ‘Perfection’, will will feature Mayday Parade’s Derek Sanders and a “screams version” of ‘Slipping Through (No Kings)’.
To tide you over until then, here is the video for ‘Perfection’, which was shared late last year.
