Boys Night Out's third full-length album will be a self-titled effort that arrives at retail via Ferret Music on June 26.

The southern Ontario hardcore band — comprised of singer Connor Lovat-Fraser, guitarists Jeff Davis and Andy Lewis, bassist Dave Costa and drummer Ben Arseneau — follow 2003's Make Yourself Sick and 2005's Trainwreck with a record produced by veteran Lou Giordano (Taking Back Sunday, Ataris, Paul Westerberg). Lead single "Swift And Unforgiving" can be heard on the group's MySpace page.

"Jeff wrote the first lyrics around this verse with 'The flood will run red,' and I just continued to write around that theme of vulnerability and how quick we can be destroyed," says Lovat-Fraser of "Swift And Unforgiving." "It's also the first song that I really used that register of falsetto and it's pretty unique within the context of our songs."

Boys Night Out recently released a digital-only EP titled 50 Million People Can't Be Wrong that featured demo versions of two new songs and re-recordings of three tracks from 2002's Broken Bones And Bloody Kisses EP.

The quintet will wrap up a North American tour with the Plain White T's in Chicago on Thursday night, and more dates in support of the new album are expected.

Here are the songs on Boys Night Out:

"Get Your Head Straight"
"Swift And Unforgiving"
"The Push And Pull"
"Up With Me"
"The Heirs Of Error"
"Let Me Be Your Swearword"
"Hey, Thanks"
"Fall For The Drinker"
"Apartment 4"
"Reason Ain't Our Long Suit"
"It Won't Be Long"
