Resurrection is the eighth studio album by American rock band New Found Glory. Released on October 7, 2014, it is the band's first album recorded as a four-piece since the departure of founding guitarist-lyricist Steve Klein in late 2013. The album also marks their debut release with independent label Hopeless Records, having concluded their previous recording contract with Epitaph Records.
Produced alongside frequent collaborator Paul Miner and recorded between June and July 2014, the album was preceded by singles "Selfless" and "Ready & Willing." To promote the release of the album, the band headlined the fifth annual Glamour Kills tour starting on August 10, with dates across South Korea, Canada, the United States, and Europe.
In October 2011, the band released their seventh studio album Radiosurgery via Epitaph Records. To support the album, the band headlined the Rockstar-sponsored "Pop Punk's Not Dead Tour" in North America ahead of Set Your Goals, The Wonder Years, Man Overboard, and This Time Next Year. The tour commenced on 6 October in Santa Cruz, California and ran through to 20 November in San Diego. Following a report published in Billboard magazine announcing the band would be entering a "lengthy hiatus", Chad Gilbert spoke out and strongly denied these rumors before confirming they would be recording their first live album the following year. The band went on to release Kill It Live in October 2013, which featured the band's live set recorded over two nights at Chain Reaction in California, as well as three new studio tracks including single "Connect the Dots."
