Background

Composition

After months of anticipation, lead singer Josh Ramsay announced on Twitter that the album will be titled Ever After. [5] The band announced that the album would be released on November 29, 2011, [6] however this date was later pushed up to November 21. [2] The band announced that there would not be any breaks in between the tracks on the record, and would instead have a new track start as soon as the previous track ended, without a pause, making it an hour-long continuous piece of music. [2] Production on the album began in the beginning of 2011. [7]

The album was produced by Ramsay and was recorded at his studio, Umbrella Factory, in Richmond, British Columbia. [2] Through YouTube, the band previewed recordings of a gospel choir for their song "Stutter", as well as a few recordings from the band. [8] The album cover was revealed on the band's Facebook page on October 17, 2011, and it features a series of toys on a shelf. [9]

Storyline

Ever After is a concept album based around a fairytale concept. [2] In addition to the fact that there is no pause between the tracks, Ever After also has a storyline told through the album's songs as well as its booklet. The story tells of a fictionalized Josh Ramsay and his adventures in the fantasy kingdom of Toyland.

It tells a story of a man awakening in a land run by Queen Carolina, who uses her factory to build toys that steal hearts. The man goes on a mission to find Porcelain: the missing, heartless, adopted daughter of the former king. She holds a piece of a key that opens a chest that will allow him to return home. [10]

The first single on the album, entitled "Haven't Had Enough" was released on July 19, 2011. [11] The music video for the song was released on August 26, 2011.

[14] On February 1, 2012, a music video for "Fallout" premiered via MTV. [15] A behind-the-scenes video was also released. [16] The third single "Desperate Measures" was released on July 4, 2012 and had its music video premiere the same day. [17] [18] The fourth single "Stutter" was released on December 4, 2012. [19] Although not playing the character of Princess Porcelain, actress Olivia Ryan-Stern was heavily featured in this video as well. [20] The music video premiered on the MuchMusic Top 10 on December 17, 2012. [21] The fifth and final single, "By Now" was released for radio airplay on June 10, 2013. [22] The music video for the song was released on August 1, 2013. [23]

Promotion

They toured with The Ready Set, Allstar Weekend, and The Downtown Fiction in the 2011 Glamour Kills Tour. [24] In October and November, the group supported Simple Plan on their headlining US tour. [25] They toured in Canada with Simple Plan, All Time Low, and These Kids Wear Crowns in February. In April, the group planned to go on a tour of the US. [26] However, they had to cancel it due to illness. [27]

[28] Following this, the group appeared on the Journeys Backyard BBQ Tour, which included indoor and outdoor performances at malls in the US. [29] Further US shows took place following the conclusion of the tour. Some of the shows were performed with The Audition. [30] In September, the group performed at the Bazooka Rocks Festival in the Philippines. [31] In May and June, the group went on the Noise Tour with Air Dubai. [32] A deluxe edition of the album was released in March 2014. [33]

Ever After was met with positive reviews from music critics. Joe DeAndrea of AbsolutePunk called the album, "damn near flawless" and said it could be a "top candidate for one of the best pop-rock albums of 2011." He praised the slower tempo tracks such as "Porcelain" and "So Soon" for its instrumentation and called "Desperate Measures" and "Stutter" as standout tracks. [35] Timothy Monger of AllMusic stated, "Their pop-punk core remains intact, but is tempered by strong elements of synth and dance-pop, like on the gospel-inspired 'Stutter' and the lead single 'Haven't Had Enough'." He however criticized the production calling it, "overtly over the top." [36] Johan Wippsson of Melodic described the album as a "blend of classic symphonic rock like Queen with newer punk pop. He also added, "Smart electronic elements and fantastic arrangements is delivered and gives the album a fresh and modern touch, but in a classic way." [1]
