• The_Ropes abstract "The Ropes are an indie rock band from New York City, composed of vocalist and bassist Sharon Shy and multi-instrumentalist "Toppy".Originally founded as a full band in 2005 they became a duo in early 2008, describing working with other band members as “a living hell.” They were signed to Warner/Rykodisc until 2007. The Ropes have toured throughout the US and UK, opening for acts such as The Used, Innerpartysystem, The Matches, and The Bravery. Music critic Allan Raible chose What They Do For Fun as No. 15 on the ABC News 50 Best Albums of 2008. They have been compared to The Cure, Interpol, Garbage, Poe, The Knife, and the Velvet Underground, and they cite 1950s French New Wave as an influence.The Ropes released an EP titled Cry to the Beat in early 2008, with drums produced by Blake Fleming from Mars Volta, and on May 6, 2008 released a full length album entitled What They Do For Fun, both produced by Nic Hard (The Bravery, The Church) and Toppy. In March 2009, they released an EP entitled Be My Gun along with a music video for the song of the same name, followed by another EP that August, Clubs in Europe Forever. They released the Love is a Chain Store and I Miss You Being Gone EPs in early 2010. The song "I Miss You Being Gone” was playlisted by Irish radio station Phantom 105.2, and "Love is a Chain Store" was playlisted by NME Radio in March 2010.The latest LP from the band is "Post-Entertainment", which was released in the February of 2013. According to an interview The Ropes did with IndieRay, "Post-entertainment is an examination of artist vs. entertainer. They are not one and the same. They are mutually exclusive. In a broader sense, it is an examination of the 'function' that music and art play in life. If art were to win the battle vs. entertainment – you would have Post-entertainment. Currently, one side is decidedly outnumbered."".
