Acceptance (band)
Acceptance is an American pop punk band from Seattle, Washington, formed in 1998. They released their first EP, Lost for Words, in 2000, followed by Black Lines to Battlefields in 2003 (this EP was also re-released with live bonus tracks). Their debut album, Phantoms, was released in 2005.
On January 26, 2015, it was announced that Acceptance had reunited. They released their first song in over ten years called "Take You Away" on May 8, 2015. A second studio album, titled Colliding by Design, was released in 2017, followed by Wild, Free in 2020.
The band toured nationally and shared stages with the likes of The Juliana Theory, Anberlin, Finch, Further Seems Forever, and Seether as well as performing successfully on the Warped Tour and Cornerstone Festival. When the band's debut record, Lost for Words came out on Seattle indie label, Rocketstar Records, and quickly approached the 5,000 sales mark, the industry at large began taking notice. When the band recorded a new 5-song demo with Aaron Sprinkle, this industry interest turned into serious courting by several major labels.[citation needed] After putting a professional management team in place to help determine the band's course of action, the band signed to Sony-owned Columbia Records, who then released the Black Lines To Battlefields EP (produced by Aaron Sprinkle) through The Militia Group who had been a long-time supporter of the band and was distributed through Sony-owned Red Distribution at the time.
Acceptance later released their debut album Phantoms on Columbia Records in 2005, again produced by Aaron Sprinkle. The album was one of many included in the Sony rootkit controversy due to its inclusion of the Extended Copy Protection software.
On August 2, 2006, the band announced they were breaking up. Former guitarist Christian McAlhaney posted the following message on their site:
You see, there comes a time in a band member's life where he must choose between the abnormal life of a gypsy rock musician and the normal life of the common man. Jason, our beloved lead singer, has chosen the latter and decided to take on the yoke of the common man. HOWEVER, the rest of us do not share in this desire for normalcy and have decided to continue in our pursuit of rock stardom. You should all be expecting to hear a new kick ace rocking project from Nick, Kyle, and I, as well as a new project from Kaylan and a bunch of secret people that I can't talk about right now.
At the time of the band's breakup, they had already written and demoed songs for a new album. As a "going away" for fans, the band posted for free download from their Myspace page the demo for the previously unreleased track "Not Afraid".
Jason Vena was featured on the 2010 album "Vessels" by Ivoryline on the song "The Healing", marking it his first major appearance since the breakup. In 2012, he featured on the new album Don't Panic from All Time Low on the song "Outlines".
