In late 2014, after tireless support for Papermaps‘ second full-length, Darker Lights, (known for it’s alt top-40 track “The Hedonist”),  founding members Dean Marino and Betty Dimo decided to take an extended sabbatical from live performance. Stripping the lineup down to themselves and drummer Johnny Rowe, they spent four years meticulously piecing together Confessions : To Each Their Own Rapture. For the first time in the band’s career, they worked in outside studios, choosing David MacKinnon (Fembots) as co-engineer on the project.

Papermaps will also be celebrating the release of this new album with a live show on Saturday April 14 at Lee’s Palace. Tickets are only $10 and you’ll be first to get a limited printing on vinyl available at the show! For more info, visit the Facebook Event page.

As a taste of things to come, enjoy the band’s handmade video for “Iron Stove” from their forthcoming full-length album, available digitally on April 13th with an LP to follow on April 20, 2018.
