## Background

[edit]

Compilation album The Last Thing You Forget was released in 2009.[14] Bassist/vocalist Ned Russin said that since its release, the band members had "dropped out of school, seen the world and had life experiences".[15]

## Release

[edit]

On January 20, 2011, it was announced that Title Fight had signed to independent label SideOneDummy Records, and would be releasing their debut album in the spring.[14] On February 10, Shed was announced for release in May, revealing its track listing. In addition, the band gave away "27" as a free download on their Tumblr profile. Russin said that it would be "the first time we have a recording that's longer than seven minutes, so this is a long time coming".[15] On April 27, the album's title-track was made available as a free download.[16] Shed was made available for streaming on May 2,[17] before being released the following day. On May 4, a music video was released for "27".[18] In May and June, the band embarked on their first headlining US tour with support from Touché Amoré, The Menzingers, Dead End Path and Shook Ones.[19]

In July 2011, the band went on a tour of the UK and Europe.[20] On October 10, a music video was released for "Shed".[21] In October and November, the band supported Four Year Strong on the AP Fall Tour.[22] On November 21, a 7" vinyl was released featuring the outtakes "Missed" and "Dreamcatchers".[23] On the same day, the group released a music video for "Coxton Yard".[24] In February 2012, the band went on a tour of Japan, titled Alliance Trax A.T. Tour, alongside Foundation, Country Yard and Inside.[25] In April and May, the group supported Rise Against on their US tour.[26] In between dates on this tour, the band performed a number of headlining shows.[27]

Despite not being released as a single, the song "Safe in Your Skin" had a surge in popularity in 2022 and 2023, mainly due to TikTok virality. It is now the band's most streamed song on Spotify, with 93 million streams as of April 2025.
