ROMP have announced their debut LP "Departure From Venus", out March 4th via Bad Timing Records. Pre-orders for the album will be available Thursday, January 28th, alongside a stream of the first single. ROMP signed to Bad Timing Records in 2015 after the release of their EP "Sorry, Not Sorry". Now with new drummer Mike Linardi, ROMP are excited to showcase their expansive "angry pop" sound on their first ever full length record. 

Vocalist/keyboardist Madison Klarer and guitarist Lucas Dalakian on the new album:

"Departure from Venus is really important to us as a band and to me personally. A lot of things in my life have changed in the past two years and this album covers a lot of those issues. We wrote these songs the same way we wrote the EP but this time we were much more intricate in our approach. As always, recording with Jesse Cannon was a fantastic experience. He always pushes us and brings out all of the right emotions at the right times. We're proud of this record and excited to share it. " - Madison

"We're really stoked to show people our musical range. There's only so much you can offer on a 4 or 5 song EP and we think this album displays a little more of what ROMP is about. We really dug into crafting this album to have something for everyone. We're excited to play all the new songs live" - Lucas
