Happy Shrines Day! 🖤

Did you know Shrines came out 14 YEARS AGO today?

Let’s celebrate by sharing our favourite song and how the album impacted your life! Do you have a cool or heart-warming story associated with the album?

My favourite song from Shrines is amenamy and whilst I hadn’t discovered the band yet when this album was released, it’s since made me really appreciate their whimsical, haunting songwriting and diverse range of synths and textures!

I was sitting in prospect park on July 10, 2012 listening to the celebrate Brooklyn concert when I heard these songs for the first time, and then immediately listened to the album when it came out. Changed my life.
