TIGERS JAW / BALANCE AND COMPOSURE • Split • LP • Pre-Order

Run For Cover Records
Release date: 14. Novemnber 2025

The legendary split 12” from Balance and Composure and Tigers Jaw, originally released in 2011, stands as a powerful time capsule for both bands. These eight tracks capture the raw energy of a music scene that was flourishing in Pennsylvania, alongside acts like Title Fight, Daylight/Superheaven, and The Menzingers.

Balance and Composure’s side kicks off with the punchy intro of "Kaleidoscope," immediately setting the tone for their four tracks, which culminate in the spacey fan-favorite "Rope." The songs showcase the emotional intensity and textured sound that helped define the band’s early years.

Fans of Tigers Jaw will likely recognize most of their contributions from earlier releases like "Belongs to the Dead," but here, they’re reimagined with full-band arrangements that breathe new life into these once-rare tracks. Highlights include the Twin Peaks-inspired moodiness of "Lodging" and the irresistibly catchy singalong energy of "Jet Alone."

This split is more than just a release—it's a snapshot of a formative moment in modern emo and indie-punk history.
