Fake Problems have set a September 21st release date for their sophomore album, Real Ghosts Caught On Tape. According to the announcement, Real Ghosts Caught On Tape was produced by Ted Hutt (The Gaslight Anthem, Lucero) in the Spring of 2010 in Los Angeles, CA. The bright and beachy environment of Southern California shines through on the record, as does the reserved and understated vibe of these songs, such as the eerie "Songs for Teenagers" where Chris Farren poignantly delivers "Looking for drugs in all the wrong places, wanted to be famous but ended up nameless."
Fake Problems are currently performing on the 2010 Warped Tour, and are certainly one of the more "left of center" bands on the tour, which has enabled them to captivate old and new fans alike as well as make new friends in each city. Fake Problems will also be supporting The Gaslight Anthem on their Fall tour in September and October. More dates for that tour to be announced shortly.
