From their blog
On October 2, 2007 Arts & Crafts will release Population, the new studio album by The Most Serene Republic.
The album was self-produced by the band in Toronto over the last year, and was inspired by the sprawling suburbs of their hometown of Milton, Ontario. Musically, they sound as grandiose as ever. On Population, they showcase their prog and jazz influence, while building on the unique sound they carved out with their Arts & Crafts debut, Underwater Cinematographer, which Exclaim! Magazine described as "raucous, arty pop structures and ambient noise with a lo-fi, wall-of-sound approach.
The band spent two years touring the world with the likes of Broken Social Scene, Stars, Feist and The Strokes. And while they were filling rooms with their sprawling sound and youthful enthusiasm, TMSR also found time to record and release a tour-only EP entitled, Phages.
TMSR will tour North America this fall. Dates to be announced soon.
