On February 10, 2017, The Millenium will be doing... something. Helpful, right? Except it's really, really not.

There are a lot of things this could mean. For example, The Millenium could be dropping their first LP. This is what seems most likely, given the use of the hashtag that they used previously when discussing the new record. However, they could also finally be telling us the title of the record on that date. Or, they could be announcing the actual release date on February 10th. Maybe it's a new tour, though that seems unlikely given tweets about not playing shows for a while.

No matter what is happening on that date, I (as an avid fan of The Millenium) am both excited and terrified. The announcement is coming on the heels of guitarist Kyle Culver's exit from the band following their New Years Eve show.

I have seen similar incidences where bands announce something exciting, then tell us that the exciting thing is the last thing they'll be doing as a band. I've also witnessed surprise record drops that lead to massive success. My heart is scared for the first possibility but excited for the second.

I believe in The Millenium. They peaked my interest in 2014 when they opened for Hollywood Ending on the Turn Up Tour and have maintained my loyalty. Their initial sound and what they have evolved into has kept me hooked. I think they have everything it takes to make it in a tough industry. Regardless of what they announce on February 10th, those four boys (five, I'm not forgetting about you, Culver!) have a life-long fan.

I'm excited about February 10th. A little worried, but mostly excited.
