The name SHORES is shared by multiple bands: 1) The roots of Michigan’s SHORES tap the wellspring of RED HOUSE PAINTERS, BEDHEAD, THE NEW YEAR, CODEINE, LOW, SPAIN, SEAM, and SLOWDIVE. The first haunting note of “Coup de Grace” rings out, clear and clean, followed in time by another drenched in natural reverb, the living sound of a dark, wooden room. Not a cathedral, not a church, but a place of warmth and comfort nonetheless. The patient crescendo builds, the percussion kicks in, rocketing the dynamics into full play. Clean guitars, loud drums, clear vocals. Purposeful over casual, downbeat yet forward moving. Dark, not depressing. A rainy day, a late night adventure. —Var, No Idea Records 2) SHORES is a post-hardcore/ metal band from Okinawa, JP. Emerging in late 2010, the Japanese-American band Shores solidified a name for themselves throughout the Japanese hardcore/metal scene. After playing countless shows, festivals and gaining rapid attention within their home town, they were soon picked up by local label, Born To Love Records. In November of 2011, they released their debut 8 track album, titled 'Beginning | END', followed by a nation wide tour throughout Japan.
