After more than 2 years in pandemic hell production, Straightline returned with ‘
Keep Your Cool,’ an album filled with their signature metal-infused thrash skate
punk.

Straightline wrote and recorded the album in 2018-19 but waited for the world to
re-open before unleashing it alongside several live shows in 2022. ‘Keep Your Cool’
sees an exciting new chapter opening for the band, who are writing new songs with
new members for future releases.

The follow-up to “Vanishing Blues” is available on colored vinyl and CD with thematic
merch and a skateboard deck.  [](https://ddec1-0-en-ctp.trendmicro.com/wis/clicktime/v1/query?url=https%3a%2f%2femail.cloud.secureclick.net%2fc%2f6813%3fid%3d12821195.33381.1.1c26607b683b9d27e3b77298d05ea608&umid=b43dc01b-c544-481f-8380-33e20f48b328&auth=65a620fa4b6e2edf0405a6ed61dc7465231096cd-86c36deb78bbbdccacfc359223bc166411ab6a05)

**About Straightline:** 
Straightline was founded in the late 90s under the name
Softcore but renamed themselves after their Demos and before their first record “
No Way Out” in 2005. The members changed a couple of times and got their final line-
up in 2013. They released 2 more EPs in 2010 (“Change of Seasons”) and in 2012 (“
Sourcrowd” – an EP consisting of short thrash and crossover songs), released their
2nd full-length “Final Redemption” in 2013, and went on tour in Eastern Europe as
well as Ukraine & Russia.

After their EP “Alteration of the Rules” in 2014, they toured Europe, went on tour
in Japan in 2015, and played several festivals, such as Punk Rock Holiday or Mighty
Sounds. Later that year they supported Satanic Surfers on their whole Latin American
tour.

Their record “Vanishing Values” was released in 2017 via Bird Attack Records in 
the US, Canada, and Europe and they toured Japan again as well as played festivals
such as Jera on Air or Quimera Fest in Spain.

In 2018, the band toured Australia and Canada for the first time incl. festivals
such as Music for Cancer, and supported Ten Foot Pole & Big Wig on several shows
of that tour.

They wrote a new record in 2018 and started to record it in early 2019. They had
their new album fully recorded but after several problems during the production,
they needed to re-record a few things again and change the production team. Everything
was ready for 2020 before the real issues began – they had to change their drummer.
And, oh yeah– there was something called COVID-19, so they waited until they found
a new drummer again and until it made sense for them to release that record, which
means they could tour with it and bring it to the people.

Well, the time is now – with a new drummer from Slovenia and a new album coming 
out soon they will be heading back to Canada and touring with their good friends
Belvedere and Darko. The new record is called “Keep your Cool” and will be released
via Lockjaw Records and Thousand Islands Records. Even though the songs are from
2018/2019, they couldn’t fit better into these times.

They also didn’t sit still during this time and already started to write new songs
with the new members and hope to release a follow-up EP soon.
