Released in 2009, “The System Is A Vampire” saw Shapeshifter continuing to push musical boundaries. With lead singles “Dutchies” and “Lifetime” the album featured a darker, more introspective tone, while retaining their signature energy. The album's success saw it shortlisted for the inaugural Taite Music Prize in 2010, reached #1 in the NZ music charts and gaining Platinum status in New Zealand.
