The Kindred is a Canadian progressive rock sextet formed in Ottawa, Ontario, formerly known as Today I Caught the Plague. Formed in the winter of 2005–2006, the band released their debut EP Ms. Mary Mallon on July 4, 2008 and their debut full-length Lore on June 14, 2011, both independently. ==Biography== Following the break-up of David Journeaux and Mike Ieradi's previous band, A Legend Falls, the two formed Today I Caught the Plague. Slowly the group fleshed out their lineup, including members from Bill Furious and Among Ashes. The group's lineup was complete with the addition of Steve Rennie from Die Nameless. After numerous pre-production sessions the band finally entered Addictive Sound Studios with producer and good friend Dean Hadji. After a few weeks of recording the band finished their debut EP, Ms. Mary Mallon. Following the recording of Ms. Mary Mallon, bassist Matt Belanger left the band. With an EP ready to be released and a group of musicians eager to tour, the band recruited Eric Stone and Matt Young, formerly of There Were Thousands. The band's lineup was now complete. Ms. Mary Mallon was released on July 4, 2008, with some of the band's members being barely out of high school. It has received very positive reviews. While promoting the album at Toronto's Reverb, critic Dave Synyard of ''Exclaim!'' magazine said they "played an entertaining set and got the pit started for the night..." The band has completed multiple full scale tours to date, and have shared the stage with bands such as Between the Buried and Me, Protest the Hero, The Devin Townsend Project, Intronaut, The Faceless, TesseracT, Intervals and Scale the Summit among many others. In 2011 the group went into the studio with Canadian producers Anthony Calabretta and Cameron McLellan to record their first full length album. In June they released Lore to numerous critical acclaim. Since the release of Lore, Today I Caught the Plague have done several Canadian tours including headlining the first leg of the lore tour in the summer of 2011. In the fall of 2011, Today I caught the Plague embarked on the Scurrilous tour with Protest the Hero and in addition did a sting of headlining shows after. In December they also embarked on a full Canadian tour supporting The Devin Townsend Project. In March 2012, Today I Caught the Plague will tour the U.S. for their first time in support of Protest the Hero, Periphery, Jeff Loomis and The Safety Fire. Today I Caught the Plague will be touring through the U.S. as direct support for Scale the Summit starting in late May and the tour will end in mid June.
