There are very few bands in the post-hardcore scene that have had such a lasting impact after such a short career like
The Receiving End of Sirens have. Releasing one EP and two full-lengths, the band saw its run come to an end in thrilling fashion in 2008, bringing back old members to play alongside new ones and celebrating thier career, walking off the stage with fans pleading for them not to go. Thankfully, two years later, the band reunited to play a one-off at a festival in their hometown Boston, and that reunion has brought fans the gift of having TREOS back in their lives. This is seen in the form of a re-release of their stellar debut full-length,
Between the Heart and the Synapse. The band haven't committed to a full comeback (yet?), but to make up for that, this re-release is jam-packed with goodies, including a brand new song featuring all of the band's members from
BTHATS and
The Earth Sings Mi Fa Mi, including Casey Crescenzo, who took time off from his new band The Dear Hunter to record the song. In addition, a DVD of the band's full final show (in which they played both of their albums in their entirety, and even threw in some of their early songs) is attached, which was promised by the band the same year as their break-up. As all of this wonderful new material is now available on the
BTHATS re-release, it reminds us just how great of a band the Receiving End of Sirens were, and how much they are still missed.
