"Hello, Control" is the fifth, and most recent full length album released by Brandtson. They were again joined by producer Ed Rose, who had produced their previous efforts "Send Us A Signal" and "Trying to Figure Each Other Out". The songs were mixed by Chris Fudurich and mastered by Mike Fossenkemper. This album marks a departure from their typical indie rock sound and takes more of a dance punk approach. Catchy choruses, synthesized beats, and hand-claps give this album widespread appeal.
