Three full-length albums, two EPs, multiple tours across North America and Europe supporting The Strokes, Broken Social Scene, Metric, Stars, a great deal of glowing press, and devoted followers were accrued. It has been a half-decade since The Most Serene Republic has released new material. While merely a blip in terms of the universe, it can seem like a lifetime between when an elongated adolescence through the vehicle of artistry is left behind and adulthood is embraced. And so it is, that these six best of friends returned to making music through a very different lens, yet somehow managing to still capture all the impossibly beautiful things and the essence of what made their universe so special.<\/p>\n<p>For more on The Most Serene Republic, visit\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.themostserenerepublic.com\" target=\"_blank\">themostserenerepublic.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Ontario sextet, The Most Serene Republic, have revealed\u00a0a second single, Love Loves To Love Love, which\u00a0is lifted from\u00a0the band&#8217;s first new album in six year, <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"http:\/\/cultureaddicts.com\/?p=14961\" title=\"The Most Serene Republic release new single &#8216;Love Loves To Love Love&#8217;\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":14997,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"_wpas_customize_per_network":false,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[23,28,30,36],"tags":[3320,3551,3148,3147],"class_list":["post-14961","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-indie","category-music","category-new-release","category-toronto","tag-love-loves-to-love-love","tag-maplemusic-recordings","tag-mediac","tag-the-most-serene-republic"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/MSR.jpg?fit=800%2C533","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p2B2TV-3Tj","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":17146,"url":"http:\/\/cultureaddicts.com\/?p=17146","url_meta":{"origin":14961,"position":0},"title":"The Most Serene Republic premiere new single &#8216;Benefit Of The Doubt&#8217;","author":"cultureaddicts","date":"October 21, 2015","format":false,"excerpt":"The Most Serene Republic, premiered a third single from their new album 'Mediac'\u00a0today.
