Another Year, the second full length from Boardroom Heroes, was originally released on June 5, 2012. We’re extremely excited to bring this to vinyl for the first time (10 years later).
For me, this album holds up incredibly well - maybe because even in 2012, Another Year still felt like a throw-back to a different era. When I listen to “Pieces” or “Elephant” - I’m transported back to the places I got to see the band play like the Trash Bar or the Velvet Lounge… but also back to my neighbor’s driveway skatepark in the late-90s.
I remember feeling an immediate kinship with Gu and Dre (and subsequently, Stephen, Drew and Nick) - just based on their music alone - because it’s so clear that they also grew up on a steady diet of the Epitaph and Fat Wreck catalogs. Another Year sees those influences adequately honored but also sees their own sound sharpened.

I feel the need to reconnect
This always looked so good in retrospect
We’re finally here now, in this position
Where I can lay down on your couch with your permission
I want to make up for the lost time that we never had
And with you realize that all that wasted time it wasn’t so bad
So what I’m saying, if you can hear me, I want to get this right and hope that he’s forgiving
Because I can see the end and it looks pretty good from here
The only thing I hope is that the start is really quite this near
Don’t make this a non-starter
Make me feel like it’s worth trying harder
History and memory
Come together here almost completely
Tell me it’s not all just noise heard backwards
Remember when we had so much to say?
I’m tired of being stuck at words today
We’re finally here now, getting older
And I can feel the years between us on my shoulders
I want to say this clear but I can never find the words
The only choice I have is to write it all up inside a verse
