Titus Andronicus is a US indie rock/punk rock band from Glen Rock, New Jersey. Founded in 2005, the band consists of Liam Betson on baritone guitar and vocals, Andrew Cedermark on guitar, keyboard, and vocals, Ian Graetzer on bass guitar, Chris Wilson on drums, Patrick Stickles on vocals, guitar, keyboard, and harmonica, and Dan Tews on guitar, keyboard, and vocals.

With their unique blend of indie rock and punk rock influences, Titus Andronicus has gained a dedicated following since their formation. Hailing from Glen Rock in New Jersey [and formed in 2005], the band has been making waves with their energetic live performances and thought-provoking lyrics.

Their lineup includes Liam Betson providing his distinct baritone guitar sound along with powerful vocals. Andrew Cedermark adds his skills on the guitar as well as keyboards while also contributing to the vocal harmonies. Ian Graetzer holds down the low end with his bass guitar skills while Chris Wilson keeps things tight with his drumming expertise. Frontman Patrick Stickles takes charge of lead vocals while also showcasing his talents on various instruments including the guitar and harmonica. Lastly but not leastly we have Dan Tews who brings additional depth to the band's sound through his contributions on both guitars and keyboards.

'The Most Lamentable Tragedy' (hereafter TMLT) is the fourth studio album by Titus Andronicus and the band's debut for Merge Records. A rock opera in five acts. The central narrative of TMLT ("a work of fiction," claims singer / songwriter Patrick Stickles) concerns an unnamed protagonist whom we meet in deep despair. Following an encounter with his own doppelganger (an enigmatic stranger, identical in appearance though opposite in disposition), long held secrets are revealed, sending our protagonist on a transformative odyssey, through past lives and new loves, to the shocking revelation that the very thing that sustains him may be the thing to destroy him. TMLT is both the crown jewel of the band's discography and the legend that contextualizes their entire body of work. It reveals that Titus Andronicus are what hardcore fans have said they are for years, and what the world must now recognize them to be: not merely the greatest rock and roll band of this era, but one of the greatest rock and roll bands of all time.LP - Triple LP set with exclusive poster and Download.
