The Most Serene Republic have announced details about their sophomore album, Population, out October 2, 2007 on Arts and Crafts. The band self-produced the album in Toronto over this past year, gathering inspiration from their hometown of Milton, Ontario.
I'm most I had a hard time getting into The Most Serene Republic the first time around, even though I adored the band's name--which is never something to judge an artists by. In anticipation of the album, the band have made an mp3 available via their Arts and Crafts artist page, and that's what's sealed the deal for me. They may have always been grand and majestic and complex, but "Sherry and Her Butterfly Net" is tight and focused pop that doesn't lose any of the band's sweeping, epic tendencies. I'm now officially definitely excited about hearing the album.
