"[After] five months of work ... I have to say we are so proud and excited to give these songs to you all," frontman Ryan Key wrote on the band's MySpace.com site. "As the dude who writes the words, I had so much to say and didn't even know it. When I listen now, it is awesome to hear what has actually been going on in this head of mine for the last year or so compiled into one body of work."
"Paper Walls" is the follow-up to 2006's "Lights and Sounds," which peaked at No. 5 on The Billboard 200. The title cut reached No. 4 on Billboard's Modern Rock chart.

The album will also be available as a CD/DVD edition with two live tracks and behind-the-scenes footage.
