The High Dials

[11] 2004 saw the band release a follow-up EP, Fields In Glass, featuring album outtakes and electro remixes by Michael Musmanno, Davy Love and Will Carruthers.

[13] In 2005, the High Dials released their sophomore album, War of the Wakening Phantoms, which marked a departure from the overtly retro feel of their debut.

[14] Produced by Joseph Donovan and mixed by David Bianco, the songs featured lusher, more varied instrumentation and Sam Roberts as a guest violinist.

[19] The High Dials released the album Moon Country independently in 2008, before returning to Rainbow Quartz Records in 2010 for Anthems for Doomed Youth.

[21] Notable High Dials' concerts in this period include supporting Echo & the Bunnymen at SXSW[22] and the Osheaga Music Festival in Montreal, 2011.

[25] The album marked another stage in the band's evolution with its post-punk influences and pulsing "electronic shimmer",[26] though these sounds had previously been noted by critics on 2008's Moon Country.
