Movies With Heroes : Bring On The Night LP pre-order

This is a pre-order for vinyl expected in September 2023. This is a limited edition pressing of 300 copies on black and white marbled vinyl. Lacquers were mastered by Bob Weston at Chicago Mastering Service and test pressings have been approved.

Bring on the Night is the first new music to be recorded and released by Lancaster, PA based band Movies With Heroes. Movies With Heroes recorded and toured regularly from roughly 2000 to 2007, and have remained friends since. The songs were written mostly remotely by sharing tracks, ideas, and demos online over the course of a couple years. After writing upwards of 30 new songs, we narrowed the album selections down to eleven.

In late 2020, we launched a Kickstarter Campaign to raise funds to record, mix, and master the album. Recording began with drum tracking at The Kaleidoscope in April, 2021. Other tracks were recorded in various locations with the intermediate hub being TH3RD W3RX in Lancaster, where many defining textures and palettes were explored and refined. The process was brought home when we returned to The Kaleidoscope to track background vocals and several final elements before Jon Smith began bringing it all together with mixing. This was no small task, as the album had evolved and taken on a more ambitious scope than any of us initially imagined.

The album traverses several moods in a way that one person involved described as “my new favorite 80s adventure movie soundtrack,” or something to that effect. We never would have thought to describe it that way, but for lack of a meaningful descriptor, this is a high compliment. It is whatever the listener hears. We are excited to share it with the world, whatever our listeners might make of it.
