Boston favourites Defeater have scheduled an August release date for their fourth studio album, 'Abandoned'.

A follow-up to 2013's 'Letters Home', the band teams up with Epitaph for the record.

"One of the threads running through this record is how people sometimes look for the answers to their problems in the darkest places," vocalist Derek Archambault comments.

Additionally, the US outfit has released a video for 'Spared In Hell' (view below) , which will feature on the aforementioned record.
'Abandoned' is due out August 28 via Epitaph.
