Tales Told By Dead Friends

Tales Told by Dead Friends is the debut EP by American rock band Mayday Parade, released on June 13, 2006. The group resulted from the merger of local acts Kid Named Chicago and Defining Moment. With their line-up solidified, the first two songs they wrote together were "When I Get Home, You're So Dead" and "Three Cheers for Five Years". Soon afterwards, they recorded an EP, Tales Told by Dead Friends, with Lee Dyess. The group followed Warped Tour and sold copies to people in line. By the end of summer, the band had sold 10,000 copies of the EP. This attracted the attention of Fearless Records, who would sign the band in late August. The group went on tour from September to November, before the EP was reissued by Fearless. Told by Dead Friends has received a mixed response from critics. The EP has since sold over 50,000 copies. Several of the tracks would later be re-recorded for future albums/EPs or compilation albums. To celebrate the EP's 10th anniversary in 2016, the group went out on an anniversary tour and they re-released the EP with a bonus track, "The Problem with the Big Picture Is That It's Hard to See".
