It has been almost three Years since Meg and Dia released their last album, and while others in their age bracket have been studying in class rooms they’ve learned their lessons on the road.

Meg and Dia Frampton, Nick Price, Carlo Gimenez and Jonathan Snyder have spent the majority of their last two years touring the entirety of the U.S. and parts of Europe. In this time span, they have been up-streamed from Doghouse records to Warner Bros., and have developed a well-crafted identity through constant performing.

They’ve gone from being cooped up in a van for hours on end, to stretching out to play an X Box 360 on a tour bus, but the basis of their progress and success is not limited to their material possessions.

While on the road, they have shared their multitudes of success with doses of hurt and revelations. Their new album, Here, here and here is inspired from these experiences.

There are certain things that everyone experiences in life that connect humanity, but not everyone has the opportunity or skills of convey how they feel. As musicians, The Meg and Dia Band have inherited the responsibility of channeling emotions, situations and thoughts into a relative album.

Here, here, and here ,upholds this mantra in its sincerity. It doesn’t have to try to relate the truths of life, because it was forged while Meg and Dia learned their lessons on the road.

This new album is more advanced in every aspect in comparison to their last album.

Musically, the band has lost fear of style, and has ventured out to explore the abysses of dance and country genres. By doing this, they embody an essence of indie rock and bring a plethora of subjects under the guise of their life’s umbrella.

Lyrically, their songs are scattered across a spectrum of different subject matter ranging from heartbreaks to political opinion. However, all of the tracks are connected by one variable.

They’re taken from the moments where Meg and Dia have rejoiced in triumph, shed tears in struggle, and pondered in thought. It’s this fact that not only makes Here, here and here a great album, but also one that listeners can find themselves in.

Songs like “Going Away” and “Inside my Head” were gently torn from the pages of diaries, and it’s this purity that makes the album personal.

Here, here, and here hits stores today, and is certain to hit your heart and mind as well. It’s a snapshot of 13 realities converted into music to make a collage for the listening pleasure of your heart, mind and ears.
