The Republic of Wolves - shrine (March 27, 2018) Album • Page 63

Been bumping this all day.

I still don't understand why there's a dead stop during the instrumental coda of Worry If You Want but it works so fucking well.

 

I can’t imagine signing someone 500 times in a row, that sounds awful lol

 

They sold 202 copies, Simplestereo shows how many are left. The signed is for the first 100.

 

That’s criminal. These guys deserve so much more than they get.

 

Agree

 

Yup, I check Simplestereo from time to time hoping those numbers go up.

 

Still don’t understand it. But I often don’t understand other people me taste in music.

 

i gotta get that vinyl. i really can't afford it rn so im gonna have to take them up on that refund tho

 

It comes down to touring. I think if this band has taken an opportunity to really tour for a year or two with big acts they would grow immensely.

 

I've never listened to this band but seeing the topic reminded me of a story. When Gears of War 3 came out I met a dude on Gamefaqs who played through the beginning of the campaign with me. We got to talking and he said he was the Bass player in this band. That memory just hit me outta nowhere.

 

Haha go listen to shrine now!!!

 

Although, most of us have never seen them
Live and still discovered the band.

Is touring more directly profitable for a band or do you guys discover new bands at shows? I guess for me, I’d just rather a flow of new music. Seeing a show by these guys would be cool. I think they are talented enough for sure. Would opening for a mid level success band bring up their numbers?

 

I definitely don’t discover bands at shows. Mainly because I live in Canada not in Toronto so it’s rare I ever get to go to shows.

Also I’ve never seen these guys obviously but every YouTube video I’ve seen they sound painfully average live. I hope I’m wrong.

 

Well anyone on this site is going to be dedicated to music enough to find bands on our own. Most people I know irl really get into bands by seeing them live... like they go see manchester orchestra and happen to really like foxing so they check them out and become fans. My one busy went to citizen with me last night and Never had heard them before, he sent me a screenshot of him listening to them on Spotify and said he was binging them today. To grow as a band you need to get in front of bodies and play your music.

 

Playing Shrine extended version rn. Those bonus tracks are so awesome.

 

Thanks for sharing this. Gonna check them out this afternoon.

 

Where you from?

 

Ottawa

 

So yeah, that’d be a hike if they played in Toronto. I love when bands do Canadian Tour (Ontario Tours).

 

Is there an estimate for the vinyl ship date? (sorry if it's been said and I missed it)

 

Late June

From Simple Stereo: SHIPPING DATE TBD (LATE JUNE 2018)

 

Can someone create separate tracks please? Mason’s live vocals during the acoustic sets are always spot on. I was just listening to the TROW covers album a few days ago and this is a nice follow up to that vibe.

 

These versions are amazing! Glad these guys are still riding the wave. Can't wait to hear more acoustic versions.

 

Yoooo
