See You Next Tuesday is a deathcore band originating from Bay City, Michigan, in the United States. They were previously signed to Ferret Records, an independent label operating out of New Jersey. The band produced two full-length albums: Parasite in 2007 and Intervals in 2008, before disbanding in 2009 due to a combination of financial difficulties and personal challenges.
On May 22, 2015, the band announced a one-time reunion performance scheduled for September 12, 2015, at Don't Call It A Fest II. After this event, they confirmed their reunion. In early 2023, See You Next Tuesday released their third studio album, Distractions, marking their first release in fifteen years.
History
The band was formed in February 2004 in Bay City, Michigan. Initially conceived as a humorous project, they soon began to take their music seriously following favorable audience reactions during live shows. They issued two EPs featuring original vocalist Brandon "Bear" Schroder before his exit in late 2006. Chris Fox from Flesh and Blood Robot then took over vocal duties. This lineup recorded their debut album Parasite under Ferret Music. Due to a computer malfunction, the album had to be recorded twice and was produced by Andreas Magnusson. Released on April 3, 2007, the album received mixed critical feedback.
The band embarked on extensive tours throughout the United States and Canada alongside groups such as Coalesce, Daughters, August Burns Red, Job for a Cowboy, and Suicide Silence.
Former bassist Travis Martin revealed that Brandon Schroder left the band due to serious lung health issues that impeded his ability to perform vocals.
In 2008, See You Next Tuesday released their sophomore album Intervals, which reached number 46 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart. The band characterized Intervals as a more concentrated work with reduced mathcore elements and an increased emphasis on death metal.
Following an indefinite break after their August 16, 2009 performance, band members expressed interest in continuing but did not make any official statements until their reunion in 2015. That year also saw the launch of their official Facebook page and several live appearances.
On November 15, 2022, the band debuted "Hey Look, No Crying," their first new song in fourteen years, along with announcing the forthcoming album Distractions, set for release on February 17, 2023. On February 16, 2024, they issued Relapses, a remix album offering an electronic-oriented reinterpretation of Distractions.
Meaning of the name
The expression "See You Next Tuesday" functions as slang derived from a backronym spelling out "C U Next Tuesday," which references the word "cunt". Initially, the band's merchandise displayed the initials "SYNT," which were later replaced by "CUNT". Both abbreviations have appeared on various merchandise items, with fans more frequently adopting "CUNT".
