ROAM have today announced their upcoming album, Smile Wideout September 6, 2019 via Hopeless Records. Following the worldwide premiere on BBC Radio 1 Rock Show with Daniel P. Carter, ROAM have shared the first single and music video, “I Don’t Think I Live There Anymore.”

I Don’t Think I Live There Anymore” takes the fan through an out-of-body experience to show the feeling of being out of control, wandering vacantly through life without agency and free will, and finding themselves at a destination not of their choosing. This theme is prevalent all over Smile Wide, the band’s third full-length album, and the follow up to 2017’s Great Heights & Nosedives. Upon entering the studio with acclaimed producer, Machine (As It Is, Every Time I Die), the band was determined to break down every pre-conceived notion of what a ROAM song could sound like or be. The result is the most honest, raw, gut-punching collection of songs of the band’s career. 

“This album truly is a statement for us, both lyrically and sonically,” vocalist/guitarist Alex Adam shares. “We’re not that vanilla band anymore, we have a sound, we have a voice and we’re ready to show the world.”
