Sleepwave’s Broken Compass Debuts September 16th

SLEEPWAVE ANNOUNCES DEBUT ALBUM

BROKEN COMPASS TO BE RELEASED ON SEPTEMBER 16 VIA EPITAPH RECORDS

“Through The Looking Glass” Premieres at Alternative Press

Sleepwave is the new band from former Underoath singer Spencer Chamberlain, featuring new band mate Stephen Bowman. Epitaph is pleased to release the much anticipated debut album from Sleepwave, Broken Compass, on September 16.

With Chamberlain at the helm, Underoath became a major force in the post-hardcore scene, with two gold albums, multiple Grammy nominations, and crossover success unusual for bands in the scene. Now come Sleepwave with their debut album Broken Compass, the next step in the evolution of Spencer Chamberlain. With an even more melodic, accessible sound, sacrificing none of the intense songwriting that garnered Underoath and a massive following, Broken Compass is sure to put Sleepwave on the map from day one; work­ing with producer David Bendeth (Paramore, Bring Me The Horizon, Of Mice and Men), the band has crafted an album of intense anthemic rock.

Alternative Press put Sleepwave on the cover of their Most Anticipated issue in 2013, and described the band as “unbridled alt-rock , harkening back to the amped-up mania of classic songs by Smashing Pumpkins and Filter.” Sleepwave has already taken their fervent live show to The Used and Taking Back Sunday tour this spring and to festivals like their recent performance at Rock on the Range in Columbus, OH. Sleepwave will tour as support this summer with Nothing More. Headlining dates for Sleepwave including a record release show in Anaheim, CA have been announced.
