American Thrills, one of Connecticut’s most exciting heartland punk rock bands, are gearing up to release their highly anticipated new record, Milestone, on November 15th via Wiretap Records and Disconnect Disconnect Records. The album, which showcases the band’s raw energy and emotive lyricism, has already garnered buzz for its powerful sound and heartfelt performances.
Milestone is a sonic step forward for American Thrills, combining punk rock’s edge with hooks that stay with you long after the last track fades out. The album was mixed and mastered by Jesse Cannon, renowned for his work with bands like The Menzingers, Transit, and Saves The Day. The album also features guest vocals from a few punk rock luminaries: Northcote, Tim Vantol, and Andy Jackson from Hot Rod Circuit, each lending their voices to help bring the album’s themes of resilience, reflection, and celebration to life.
“We’re incredibly proud of this record,” says the band. “It’s a milestone, both literally and figuratively. The music we’ve created here represents where we’ve been and where we’re headed, and we’re excited for people to hear it. We’re also stoked to have had the chance to collaborate with some amazing artists on this album and can’t wait to bring the songs to life live this weekend.”
Fans of bands like The Menzingers, Hot Rod Circuit, and Against Me! will find a lot to love in Milestone – an album that doesn’t shy away from hard truths, but balances it with the joy and camaraderie that comes from playing punk rock music.
