New Found Glory release coffee table book full of band memorabilia

June 11, 2016

Living rooms everywhere just got a little more pop punk: New Found Glory have unveiled Stories Of A Different Kind, a coffee table book full of memorabilia.

A visual history of the band, the book tells New Found Glory's story through flyers, poster art and short stories.

“When New Found Glory first started, a messy photocopied piece of paper was the way in which we would tell people about our local shows. We could have never imagined that such a simple, lost concept would now serve as the spark to reignite a lost memory,” says the band about their first book. “Stories Of A Different Kind is a storybook, but not a beginning-to-end narrative. It's a visual journey through a time period that pre-dates social media and blogs: a time that newer fans might not know had existed and older fans can look back on.”

The contents cover New Found Glory's immense 19 year timeline: everything from the band's first paid show to their first summer on Warped Tour to their world tour with Blink-182 and Green Day. Featuring original short stories written by the members themselves, the title of the biography, Stories Of A Different Kind, is also a track on the band's 2014 album Resurrection.

“This could be our biggest accomplishment as a band to date and we are very excited to share it with everyone,” the band continues. “As fans, you're just as big of the reason why it exists as we are.”

A limited number of signed copies for pre-order are available here. Stories Of A Different Kind will also be available all summer on Warped Tour, where the band is playing Journey's Left Foot stage.

“This was just as exciting to make, if not more than recording an album,” says guitarist Chad Gilbert. “Our fans will love this and no matter where you open it or how many times you read it, you'll always find something new.”
