context_page_description: Man Overboard is the second studio album by the American rock band Man Overboard. After the release of their debut album Real Talk, guitarist Wayne Wildrick left the group, resulting in several line-up changes. In December 2010, the group had signed to independent label Rise Records, and aimed to release another album by fall of next year. Following Wildrick's return to the band in April 2011, the group began demoing songs for their next album the following month. With New Found Glory guitarist Steve Klein standing in as producer, the group recorded their second album at Cannon Found Soundation Studios in New Jersey in June. Following this, the band went on a European tour with Polar Bear Club. After the album was announced in August 2011, "Dead End Dreams" was made available for streaming later that month, followed by "Spunn" in mid-September.
  Man Overboard was released on September 27, 2011, and received favorable reviews. Reviewers noted comparisons to Blink-182 and Green Day. The album reached number 181 on the Billboard 200 and debuted within the top 40 on three other Billboard charts.
context_section_description: On August 5, 2011, Man Overboard was announced for release, and the album's cover art and track listing were revealed. On August 24, "Dead End Dreams" was made available for streaming. Following this, the group went on a tour of Australia in late August and early September. "Spunn" was made available for streaming on September 16. A free download was also available, which included lyrics and a guitar tab for the song. Man Overboard was made available for streaming on September 25, and was released through Rise Records two days later. To celebrate the album's release, the band hosted a listening party. In October and November, the band supported New Found Glory on their Pop Punks Not Dead Tour in the US. In December, the band went on a US tour, with support from Daytrader and True Things. Before the tour, Daytrader was replaced by Handguns due to a family emergency. Also in December, the band supported The Early November during their holiday shows. On January 18, 2012, a music video was released for "Somethings Weird". In January and February, the band toured the UK, with support from The Story So Far and Save Your Breath.
  On February 8, 2012, the band announced they would be filming a music video for "Dead End Dreams" during the week. Following this, the band went on the Pop Punk the Vote tour, across the US in February and March. They were supported by Handguns and Seahaven, with Candy Hearts opening the first half of the tour, and Daytrader opening the second half. On February 23, it was announced that Hrycenko had left the band and had been replaced by Joe Talarico. The band then went on The Rocksound Impericon tour in Europe from late March to mid-April, alongside Your Demise, Trapped Under Ice, and Basement. This was followed by a tour of Russia and Ukraine, alongside James Corbi. The music video for "Dead End Dreams" was teased on May 22, followed by a making-of video on May 30. The video was inspired by Pennywise's video for "Same Old Story" and premiered through MTV on June 5. The video, directed by Rob Soucy, was filmed in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and Williamstown, New Jersey, earlier in the year.
  The band went on the 2012 edition of Warped Tour between June and August. A deluxe edition of the album was released on July 3, featuring "Love Your Friends, Die Laughing" and live versions of four tracks. In September, the band went on a brief East Coast tour of the US with Major League, before touring across the West Coast the following month with Taking Back Sunday and Bayside. In November, the band went on the Road to Warped Tour in the UK, alongside New Found Glory, Less Than Jake and The Story So Far. From late November to early December, the band went on tour with Never Shout Never. In February 2013, the band held a contest where fans could download an instrumental track and record their own vocals over it. The winner won tickets, items from their web-store and a signed vinyl copy of Before We Met: A Collection of Old Songs (2010). The winning entry by Front Porch Step, as well as Man Overboard's version, of the track titled "Dump Me" was made available as a free download through Alternative Press' website.
