Not to be confused with the last post's Awesome New Republic (or for that matter, the Golden Republic, the Republic Tigers, Republica, or, simply, the Republic), the Most Serene Republic will venture down from Canada for a month of US dates, and one of them is in our neck of the woods. They play the Jackpot Music Hall on September 13 with Arts & Crafts labelmates Still Life Still.
There was a bit of controversy regarding the indie-poppers, too. Seems that an article in the National Post might have inferred drug and alcohol problems in the band when there were none. Specifically:
The Most Serene Republic has never had a drug or alcohol problem. The problems that we've had over the last few years have been emotional and personal, but never due to substance abuse. We all come from good homes and have reasonably good heads on our shoulders.The interviewer must have inferred these things when we talked about having issues and I'm sure would be surprised to know that these things can occur in a rock band without the addition of said substances.
Those Canadians certainly have a witty method of banter, eh?
