Motion City Soundtrack to 'Kill' You – Acoustically


Motion City Soundtrack are unplugging the keyboard (and Jesse Johnson's wacky onstage keyboard playing) for an acoustic EP due out digitally on May 6. Get those lighters in the air right now!



The five tracks on the EP are all acoustic versions of songs from the band's Even if It Kills Me release that came out back in 2007. This is the first time Motion City Soundtrack have released an entire record of acoustic songs. Perhaps this could be their calling after all?

Motion City Soundtrack EP track list:

"Fell in Love Without You"
"It Had to Be You"
"Broken Heart"
"Can't Finish What You Started"
"Point of Extinction"

The physical version of the EP is supposed to be released next fall. Meanwhile, you can catch the band in concert on the Honda Civic Tour with Panic at the Disco, The Hush Sound and Phantom Planet.
