Following last year's Back To The Whip, FVRMN is back with another full-length LP on July 25, Suicides. It is the fifth album from the band, set for release via Sweet Cheetah Records and Steadfast Records.

The record includes guest contributions from Mario Rubalcaba (Earthless, Clikatat Ikatowi, OFF!, Rocket From The Crypt), Chris McQueen (Snarky Puppy), Leo Abrahams (Brian Eno, Mark Ronson, Florence + The Machine), and Sean Husick (Milemarker, Ghost Work).
