Seminal Boston indie rock band Six Going On Seven make long-awaited return with the release of ‘Human Tears,’ their first length album in more than twenty years.
Human Tears marks a powerful continuation of Six Going On Seven’s legacy, bridging the raw urgency of their early work with the deeper emotional resonance of a band that has lived an entire lifetime since their last release. The album is now streaming, with vinyl available via Spartan Records.

“This record came together organically,” says vocalist/bassist Josh English. “We didn’t set out to recreate the past — we wanted to write from where we are now.”
Emerging from the same fertile Boston emo and post-hardcore scene as contemporaries like The Get Up Kids, Karate, and Hot Water Music, Six Going On Seven have long been regarded as a deeply influential “band’s band,” known for emotionally driven songwriting and fiercely committed live performances.
The trio — Josh English (vocals/bass), James Bransford (guitar), and Will Bartlett (drums) — reconnect with that foundation while expanding their sonic palette across eleven new songs steeped in vulnerability, urgency, and hard-earned perspective.
