White Crosses / Black Crosses

White Crosses is the fifth studio album by American punk rock band Against Me!, and their second to be released on Sire Records. As with its predecessor, 2007's New Wave, the album was produced by Butch Vig. It is also the only Against Me! album to feature George Rebelo, drummer of Hot Water Music, following the departure of previous drummer Warren Oakes. Recording began in August 2009, finishing two months later. The mixing and mastering of the album finished in February 2010, and it was released June 8. The initial pressing of the record included four bonus tracks. This is also the last album prior to Laura Jane Grace's transition. On March 17, 2010, their first video from the album, "Rapid Decompression", was released online via AOL Spinner. A four-track digital EP for "I Was a Teenage Anarchist" was released as the first single from the album, on April 7, 2010. The two outtakes from the White Crosses sessions are "David Johansen's Soul", of which an acoustic version was released on Black Crosses, and "Dead Generations", which remains unreleased in any form.
