Last month, the Front Bottoms revealed they had joined the Fueled By Ramen family adding fuel to the rumors that they had a new album up their sleeves. After releasing the music video for “Cough it Out” just a few weeks after they debuted another new song, “West Virginia,” it only added to the speculation that a new record would be coming our way soon.
