The band released their fourth album, The Most Lamentable Tragedy , on 2015 via Merge Records . Taking the form of a 93-minute, 29-song, five-act rock opera (including covers of Daniel Johnston and the Pogues ), Stickles described the record as a “complicated metaphor about manic depression, melding elements of philosophy, psychology, and science fiction through the plight of one troubled protagonist’s inner demons.” The band also disclosed a film element to the album and thus far released a 15-minute music video covering Act Two. The Most Lamentable Tragedy was released to positive reviews, and the group announced a “TMLT Around the World Tour” covering the United States and Europe.
