BAYSIDE Photo credit: TOM FALCONE Click for hi-res With tickets in high demand for their Great American CULT Tour and fan propensity at a near frenzy, NYC's BAYSIDE will provide another glimpse of their sixth studio album CULT, which is being released onFebruary 18th via Hopeless Records, through their new single"Time Has Come". "Time Has Come" stays true to the Bayside tradition, stapled together with a series of signature power pop structures, such as ballad-based, sing-along chorus and strategically placed anthemic hey's and ho's. The song is currently streaming on the Hopeless Records' YouTube page (http://smarturl.it/timehascome) and is available for purchase digitally (http://smarturl.it/TimeHasCome_iTunes). Stay tuned for the official music video for the single, which will be released next month. The band recently launched a cover contest for "Time Has Come" where fans were given the tabs and lyrics to the song and asked to create their own unique interpretation before hearing it. The grand prize winner was revealed today and you can check out Sulene's winning cover here:http://youtu.be/1NpTXWJTOyU. The grand prize includes an Epiphone G-400 Pro in cherry signed by Bayside, VIP bundle which includes a pair of tickets to an upcoming headlining show with passes to meet the band, and a copy of Cult on both CD and vinyl along with a signed screen printed poster. Check out all the entries here:http://hopelessrecords.com/timehascome Pre-sale tickets for the Great American CULT Tour are significantly outpacing all previous Bayside headline tours, making it evident that theyÂ’ve developed a cult-like following through the years. The tour kicks off on March 5th in Cleveland and circles around the States concluding at The Palladium in Worcester, MA on April 5th. Support for this run includes Four Year Strong, Daylight, and Mixtapes. Formed in 2000 in Queens, NY, Bayside has previously released five studio albums (2004's Sirens and Condolences, 2005's Bayside, 2007's The Walking Wounded, 2008's Shudder, 20011's Killing Time), numerous EPs, and a live album (2008's Live at the Bayside Social Club). The band has toured the world and played on multiple Vans Warped Tours. With the release of CULT on February 18th, the breadth of their history seems to have culminated in this sixth studio album.
