Everybody Is Going to Heaven is the second studio album by American rock band Citizen. The album charted within the top 20 on various Billboard charts.

Background

The group announced they were in the process of recording their next album on January 5, 2015.[1]

Discussing the writing process, guitarist Nick Hamm said the group was "doing whatever we feel like" and that the songs were "twice as big as [the tracks on] Youth. It's Citizen, but it's turned up to 11".[2] Everybody Is Going to Heaven has been described as alternative rock,[3] emo,[4] grunge[3] and shoegazing.[5][4]

Release

On April 26, 2015, Everybody Is Going to Heaven was announced for release in June, revealing its cover art. In addition, a short snippet of a song was available on the group's website.[2] On May 5, "Cement" was made available for streaming via Noisey.[6] On June 3, a music video was released for "Stain". The video, directed by Max Moore, premiered via Vice.[7] Everybody Is Going to Heaven was made available for streaming on June 9 via Spin,[5] before being released on June 23 through Run for Cover Records.[2] On October 21, a music video was released for "Yellow Love". Directed by Moore, it features two people stabbing themselves with knives. According to Noisey, proceeding this is a "a strange reaction that plays out for the rest of the duration. One could expound that it's a visual representation of the song's lyrics seen real".[8]

In October and November, the group supported Circa Survive on their headlining US tour.[9] In January 2016, the group went on a tour of Europe and the UK with Turnover.[10] "Numb Yourself" was released as a radio single on February 19.[11] In March and April, the group went on a US tour alongside Turnover, Sorority Noise and Milk Teeth.[12] On May 8, an outtake, titled "Nail in Your Hand", was released for free download from the group's website.[13] In August, the group appeared at Reading Festival in the UK.[14] In November, the group went on a tour of Japan and Australia.[15]
