One of our favorite American rock bands, and one of the hardest working I might add are back, and it begs the question, did they ever leave? These United States have been a band that has been on our radar for a couple years now, and are getting ready to release their third full length album this fall.

The new record is titled Everything Touches Everything and Jesse Elliott and the boys kick things off with one of the poppiest tunes to date with the lead single “I Want You To Keep Everything.” Not only is this a sugary sweet hit, but I got a chance to hear it live a few months back and it sounds brilliant in person. You will get an opportunity to see the boys live again too, as their upcoming never-ending tour hits Cincinnati on August 13th at the Southgate House.

So listen to the new song below, get excited for the new album (Sept 1), and check out when they are coming to a town near you after the jump.
