By the grace of God, Conversation's latest track "This is Me Breathing" is available to you, here, for free, no joke! Conversation's beginnings go back to 2007 in Victoria B.C. where the post-hardcore band started with the sole purpose of creating music that was honest (honestly, we're being honest here). By 2013, the band had decided to relocate from Victoria to Toronto, though I'm not sure why anyone would trade the scenery of B.C. for the concrete jungle of T.O. Along with the relocation came three new members and a fresh start with the intention to begin releasing new music in 2014.
Conversation's sound is composed of frantic, high energy that ranges from crushing breakdowns to ambient bridges and anthemic choruses (no, we're not talking crappy '80s rock anthemic choruses either). Their live show has been known to get quite rowdy and you could say that it walks a fine line between controlled chaos and outright bedlam. The group cites a range of influences, including Alexisonfire, Glassjaw, At the Drive-In, Norma Jean, the Bled, Thrice, and Deftones and since moving to Victoria, they've played shows with bands such as Cancer Bats, A Textbook Tragedy, Ten Second Epic and Gob. Don't be surprised if you're "gobbing" in your pants after you check out this free download of "This is Me Breathing!" - Puregrain Audio

Bio
CONVERSATION is a five-piece post-hardcore band based in Toronto, Ontario.
CONVERSATION began in Victoria, BC in 2007 with the sole purpose of creating something that they could believe in, the one rule was that the music had to speak for itself; it had to be honest.The band relocated--and essentially reformed with three new members--in Toronto in 2013. Since reforming CONVERSATION has been actively playing shows and writing new music and has now started writing and recording new music for release.
CONVERSATION have a frantic, high energy make up that ranges from crushing breakdowns to ambient bridges and anthemic choruses. Their live show walks a fine line between controlled chaos and outright bedlam, yet all the while maintaining enough composure to start and stop on a dime. They believe that the greatest music is created when you simply allow it to be what it needs to be.
During their time in Victoria, CONVERSATION played shows with names like Cancer Bats, A Textbook Tragedy, Ten Second Epic, Gob, Theset (now Blitz//Berlin), and Acres of Lions as well as playing the Calgary leg of Warped Tour.
CONVERSATION is influenced by the likes of Alexisonfire, Glassjaw, At the Drive-In, Norma Jean, the Bled, Thrice, and Deftones.
