It’s pretty clear by now that we here at CraveOnline love giving away guitars. We’ll go ahead and assume that you enjoy winning awesome free stuff as well, so to keep the ball rolling we’ve teamed up with PA rockers Balance and Composure to bring you an awesome Fender Modern Player Jazzmster HH guitar and merch pack!
Balance and Composure are set to return with their long-awaited sophomore album, The Things We Think We’re Missing, on September 10th via No Sleep Records. It’s been two years since the band’s critically heralded debut Separation, and to properly set the mood and prepare for the next step in their musical evolution, B&C wrote the majority of their record in a cabin in the Poconos. The results are at once introspective, brooding and cathartic, as evidenced on the first taste of the new album, “Reflection,” which debuted on Pitchfork.com and explores the internal conflict of perception versus reality. Fans can pre-order the new album now right here, or on iTunes.
With shades of Sunny Day Real Estate, Neutral Milk Hotel and even Nirvana ringing throughout, Balance and Composure’s diverse musical palette adds a dynamic edge to their post-90’s rock sound that’s vibrant, memorable and entirely their own. Now, to celebrate the release, they’re helping us hook you up with a sick new guitar and merch pack! Details below.
