Circa Survive are Recording their Fifth Studio Album

by | May 5, 2014

Five years ago in the basement of the Avalon in Hollywood we got personal with Circa Survive guitarist Colin Frangicetto and frontman Anthony Green. They told us about what happiness meant to them and of the expectations they have as a band. “I feel like we have a job to do, and it’s as simple as a gear turning in a clock,” Frangicetto said. “I don’t see it as being some big majestic thing…we’re just doing what we’re supposed to be doing.”
