Just for reference, I think the below excerpt from an interview I did with Mason about a month ago might answer your question:



---What does the future hold for Souveneer, as well as all of your other projects? I know for a fact that there are folks who are extremely curious about that “forthcoming tigers on trains album” referenced when the 2019 single “Penmanship” dropped. shrine was also a big hit for The Republic of Wolves and there are lots of fans who are practically foaming at the mouth for a follow-up. Are there any carrots to dangle?---



In the short term I’ve got the full EP coming in July, along with a music video that’s currently in the works; moving forward I’ll likely keep writing and releasing stuff as Souveneer for as long as I feel like I’ve got something to say. As for the other projects, both are very much up in the air. With The Republic of Wolves we kind of gave it everything we had with shrine, and it unfortunately didn’t really move the needle on our level of recognition or success. So we’re still catching our breath, but we’ll definitely make some more music together in the future — and another record is never totally out of the question. As for Tigers on Trains, we had been in the early stages of writing and recording a collection of new songs when we put out “Penmanship,” but a bunch of life circumstances got in the way of us finishing that project. As it stands we’ll probably put out a couple more of those songs as soon as we get around to finishing them, along with properly releasing some older B-sides and bonus tracks and whatnot. Sooner than later, I think.

That new Souveneer EP is actually 9 songs and pretty good though, just saying. I'd still rather have TROW or ToT but what are ya gonna do.

Gosh I totally mistreated this record by giving it a 3.5

My life was weird back in 2018

I'm bumpin this from a 3.5 to a 4.5

It's hard work having a soul...

Bask remains my favorite followed by Birdless Cage, then probably Yume. But the b-sides are all great and easily could have been included as part of the regular tracklist.
