War Paint is the second album from American alternative rock band The Dangerous Summer, released through Hopeless Records. The album was released July 19, 2011.[4]
The album was the band's second full-length release on Hopeless Records. The first single, "War Paint"[5] was released on July 7, 2011, and was accompanied by a montage music video. The songs "Work in Progress"[6] and "No One's Gonna Need You More"[7] would also receive music videos after the release of the album. Along with the standard edition of the album, a digital deluxe edition was released the same day, adding two acoustic versions.[8] The album was met with critical acclaim from fans and critics alike. Heather McDaid of DIY applauded the album for the improvements in comparison to the band's debut album and considered it to be a "far more solid and considered release than their debut".[9]
War Paint debuted on the Billboard 200 at number 149, the band's first appearance on the chart.[10] In October 2012, the band supported Lower Than Atlantis on their headlining UK tour.[11]
