The Republic Tigers- Keep Color, 2008

Esta banda ya ha sido mencionada unas cuantas veces en el blog. Y todo porque nos enamoramos de su canción "Buildings and mountains",que conocimos gracias a Filter-mag.com. De ella hemos puesto el MP3, la letra y el video. Y ha sido una de las razones de mayor número de visitas en el blog. El tema en cuestión ha sonado en Anatomía de Grey. Muy propicio para promocionar su primer disco KEEP COLOR.

Epic yet intimate, tracks like "Feelin' The Future" and the towering "Buildings & Mountains" see the Kansas City-based quintet weaving future folk, euphoric psychedelia, and exuberant symphonic pop with intricately crafted electronic textures and uncommon emotional depth. The result is a bold and beautiful collection of strikingly human music that holds an aural mirror to our ever more technologically integrated society. "It's a sound that's half organic and half synthetic, kind of like how all of our lives are now," says singer Kenn Jankowski. "It's the common theme throughout all our songs and we tried to approach it audibly as well."

Lyrics for "Buildings and Mountains " -From Their MySpace

we've been waiting all our lives
for things we've always had
but have no eyes to see
somethin' new is going to happen
the most natural thing
but nothin' we'd expect

(chorus)
all these buildings and mountains
slowly they'll arise
before our eyes

how do cities understand
we drink our wine and wonder
why we're really here
what's the point of even asking
you take the good and bad
and make the best of it

(chorus)

have you watched the cities move
does nature fall before
this age of industry
for today i'll let it go
you've been good to me
have i been good to you

(chorus)

With a sound that the band describe as "half organic and half synthetic, kind of like how all our lives are now,” Kansas City’s The Republic Tigers have created a pastoral, yet modern sound, which bubbles along with just the right amount of electronic sparkle on the acoustic guitars, creating intimate epics that demand a second listen.

“Buildings And Mountains” typifies these feelings, with its shuffling tempo and soothing vocals, it’s no surprise that the band would appeal to music supervisor Alexandra Patsavas, responsible for the soundtracks to Grey's Anatomy, Gossip Girl, The O.C. who signed the band to her record label. Mixing the right elements of The Shins and the Postal Service, “Buildings And Mountains” is sure to become a mix-tape favorite.-Filter-mag.com
