{"product_id":"tragedy_will_find_us","title":"Tragedy Will Find Us","description":"\u003cp\u003eTragedy Will Find Us is the fourth studio album by Hamilton, Ontario melodic hardcore band Counterparts, released on July 24, 2015 via Pure Noise Records in the US and New Damage Records in Canada — the band's debut for both labels after departing Victory Records. Produced by Will Putney (The Amity Affliction, Miss May I, Thy Art Is Murder), the 11-track, 34-minute record was written by vocalist Brendan Murphy during a period of personal crisis. Murphy described it to Genius as \"a record about my life falling apart — simple as that... Lyrically, it represents me at rock bottom. But I feel like when you hit that low, you have nowhere to go but up.\" The album's title encapsulates that philosophy: as Murphy told Metal Hammer, \"no matter who you are or what precautions you take, tragedy will find all of us — the idea is to not allow that tragedy define you as a person.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMusically, the album draws together the aggressive melodic hardcore of The Current Will Carry Us (2011) and the darker, more atmospheric qualities of The Difference Between Hell and Home (2013), while adding a few new dimensions — most notably Murphy's use of spoken word passages — to create what The Alternative called the band's \"most accessible\" record to date. Putney's mix pushes Murphy's vocals to the forefront, amplifying the emotional intensity of tracks like \"Resonate,\" \"Burn,\" \"Tragedy,\" \"Choke,\" and the closing \"Solace.\" Louder called it \"melodic hardcore at its finest,\" and The Au Review gave it an 8\/10, praising the band's continued growth. The album peaked at number 117 on the Billboard 200 and remains widely regarded as one of the strongest entries in Counterparts' catalogue.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Record Store","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl \/ Album - Colour Vinyl","offer_id":53629467263290,"sku":"38522","price":23.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/2041\/0682\/files\/Screenshot_2026-06-19_at_12.41.45_PM.jpeg?v=1781887559","url":"https:\/\/recordstore.ca\/products\/tragedy_will_find_us","provider":"Record Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
