LOST VERSES was recorded & mixed on the fly by guitarist Roman Koester at Complex Studios and while this was not meant to be anything more than the band jamming on some old tunes for fun..... the result is nothing short of jaw dropping.


Here's what TRS founding member Jamie Hope had to say about it:


"We decided to get back in the studio while we had some brief time off in-between tours and have some fun jamming on our older stuff and put it out for you guys to bang your heads to! We're really excited as this is going to add a lot to our live show and people that never got to hear these older songs live will now have the chance! LOST VERSES will feature tracks such as Flesh Couture, Effigy Of Death and Knives and Wolves as well as many other tracks from past chapters of the band!"


Joining the guys nationally is Michigan's well kept secret, For the Fallen Dreams. Formed in late 2003 and recently signing with Rise Records (The Devil Wears Prada, Drop Dead Gorgeous) in the summer of 2007, these young men show incredible promise through songs that showcase poignant and powerful writing, both lyrically and musically while still staying in touch with their hardcore/metal roots. Their music displays a well-done balance of metal and melody. Guitarists, Jim Hocking and Chris Cain show a variety of ranges while shifting back and forth between hard-hitting metal riffs and some rather melodic guitar lines. Given their ability to draw the listener in with brutally honest lyrics about life, relationships, and struggle, the band shows solidarity for their future as a band to be taken seriously.


Rounding out the lineup will be NSW’ own Shinto Katana. Forming on the streets of Penrith in 2005, Shinto Katana gathered speed and fans throughout Sydney with their brand of ultra heavy hardcore. 2008 saw them release their debut album "Cold Streets" on Sydney based label Dogfight Records. They have shared the stage with such international acts as Bleeding Through, Bury Your Dead, The Ghost Inside, The Warriors, Down to Nothing as well as Australia’s very own Parkway Drive.


The Lost Verses Tour featuring The Red Shore, For the Fallen Dreams and Shinto Katana will be coming to a town near you!"
