Episode 22-Egin Kongoli and Rohan Lilauwala of Respire

Attempting to label or categorize a band can sometimes be a challenge. Attempting to label or categorize Respire's sound and music into one genre could damn near be a fool's errand. Toronto's Respire draws influence from hardcore, punk, post-rock, screamo and skramz, and metal, while also incorporating orchestral stylings and instrumentation. Through this, Respire has been able to craft a sound that is wholly unique, brilliant, and pulverizing. Dan sat down with guitarists and vocalists, Egin Kongoli and Rohan Lilauwala, to discuss Respire's music, 2018's captivating album Dénouement, addiction, immigration, and more.
