Boston’s pop-punk quintet A Loss For Words have announced their Paper + Plastick Records debut will be an as-yet-untitled Motown covers album on May 11th. The release will feature covers of the Jackson 5, Four Tops, Marvin Gaye, The Temptations, and more.
“Our band listens to anything from American Nightmare to Coldplay to New Found Glory, and everything in between,” says vocalist Matty Arsenault. “I grew up listening to R&B and have always wanted to do something like this! We just felt it was the perfect time to try something new and have some fun with it. We’re very excited for everyone to hear us spice up some classic R&B hits!”
This album marks the band’s first release with the assistance of a US label, having self-released three EPs and their 2009 full-length debut The Kids Can’t Lose (which is available in Japan via In-N-Out Records).
