██│ We Are The City mark their musical return with their forthcoming,
██│ fifth full-length album, RIP. This new record, hinted at when last
██│ years' innovative AT NIGHT was released, is an interconnected
██│ companion album with RIP acting as the prog-pop counterpoint to AT
██│ NIGHT's more experimental exploration.
██│
██│ RIP will be released in early 2020 (Light Organ/Tooth and Nail/
██│ Sinnbus).
██│
██│ We Are The City spent two years crafting the sweeping RIP, an emotive
██│ prog-pop opus that is filled with anthems and intimate examinations of
██│ mortality. RIP was masterfully mixed by JUNO-winner Matty Green (The
██│ Weeknd, Frank Ocean, Paul McCartney) and Steve Bays (Hot Hot Heat,
██│ Mounties). As evidenced in the title, RIP's thematic focus was
██│ inspired by a childhood friend who passed away during the sessions,
██│ and the guys aired their souls while collaboratively writing lyrics.
██│ They held nothing back: ôGod&Manö is a nakedly confessional exposΘ on
██│ past shames, and the aching title track ôR.I.Pö is a bittersweet
██│ reflection on a lost friendship which features an improvised one take
██│ vocal by McKenzie just days after learning about his friend's sudden
██│ death.
██│
██│ ôWe went back to where it started (Kelowna), and that was pretty
██│ potent,ö reflects Andy. ôThere are a few times on the record where
██│ CayneÆs almost crying when he sings, and I just donÆt know if you
██│ could get that in a studio in the same way. It was really capturing an
██│ honest and true feeling of where weÆre at right now.ö
██│
██│ Singer-keyboardist Cayne McKenzie, drummer Andrew Huculiak and
██│ guitarist David Menzel started We Are The City way back when they were
██│ teenagers, and in the decade-plus since then, theyÆve used the project
██│ as an outlet for their wildest creative whims. TheyÆve unveiled masked
██│ alter-egos (2011Æs High School EP), created an album with an
██│ accompanying Norwegian-language feature film (2013Æs Violent), and
██│ staged a live stream of their recording sessions (2015Æs Above Club).
██│ The newest film offering helmed again by Andy called, Ash received its
██│ World Premiere screening at the Vancouver International Film Fest just
██│ weeks ago. Though Ash isnÆt directly connected to RIP in the same vein
██│ Violent was, itÆs similarly unflinching in its examination of moral
██│ ambiguity and human failings. It was shot in British ColumbiaÆs
██│ Okanagan region during the devastating wildfires of 2017, and it
██│ features an original soundtrack from Cayne.
