''Paper Walls'' is the third major-label album from American pop punk band Yellowcard, released on July 17, 2007, but their fourth full-length studio album with Ryan Key and sixth including those recorded before him. This is also the first Yellowcard album with Ryan Mendez, the last with Peter Mosely, and the last studio album to be released through Capitol Records. The album was recorded at Ocean Studios in Burbank, California and was mixed at South Beach Studios in Miami, Florida. In an interview with Jason Tate of AbsolutePunk.net〔(Yellowcard Teaser Interview - News Article - AbsolutePunk.net )〕 released on June 17 (one month before the release of the album), vocalist Ryan Key described the album as ==Recording and production== On October 16, 2006, only six months after the release of their previous album, ''Lights and Sounds'', the band announced over their official website that they were back in the studio recording a new album. Pre-production began in October 2006 and tracking began in January 2007. From January to March 2007, studio footage labeled ''"Yellowcard Sessions"'' regarding the band's progress on making the album was posted on the band's MySpace. "Light Up the Sky" was the first track to be fully mixed and finished. However, "Fighting" was the first track to be released to the public on Yellowcard's official MySpace page. Shortly afterward, the full version of "Light Up the Sky" was posted as well along with another new song, "Five Becomes Four". On June 4, "Light Up the Sky" was released to radio stations across America, and became the most added song to radio that week. On July 17, 2007, the release date of ''Paper Walls'', lead singer Ryan Key posted a blog entry on the band's official MySpace page regarding the album's debut as well as thoughts concerning its previous leak onto the internet Shortly after the album's leak and release date, the songs "Shadows and Regrets" and "Five Becomes Four" were first believed to have been written about former guitarist Ben Harper, who left the band to focus on his record label, after recording ''Lights and Sounds'' last year. However, recently it has been said that "Shadows and Regrets" is about Scott Shad, former drummer of Inspection 12 and best friend of Ryan Key, who died in a car crash. The song seems to reflect this interpretation better, as the chorus states "We were only kids. And we were best of friends. And we hoped for the best. Let go of the rest." While this could understandably be about Ben Harper, he and Key only met in high school, whereas Key and Shad knew each other their entire lives. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Paper Walls」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
