North of Northwest: Eamon McGrath - Young Ca ..It’s only once in a while that you get that ache when you listen to an album, that feeling where you want to cry because it’s so good, to run out into the street tears streaming, bearing it above your head and proclaiming its name. I know, I know — high praise. But great music [...]Sound On The Sound26 May 2012

Live Review: City And Colour + Bahamas – The ..Whilst being a headlining band from the successful and recently finished Groovin’ The Moo festival, Friday night saw Canadians Colour">City And Colour grace the stage respectively at Adelaide’s Thebarton Theatre for their sold out show. I arrived on my own to catch fellow Canadian muso Bahamas , who warmed and welcomed the crowd with his opening support set. I then managed to detour my way around any smug couples and snuggled into a seat upstairs that was centre to the stage, where I overlooked an entire room full of Adelaideans; that was actually really nice in itself. This was ...The AU Review23 May 2012

Toronto Singer Corin Raymond Uses Canadian T ..Filed under: News , New Music Corin Raymond It's not exactly Monopoly money but Canadians have often used Canadian Tire money -- the long-established hardware store chain's reward cashback bucks -- for beer , feeding puppies , or any number of other reasons. Now a Toronto singer-songwriter has used the five-cent and ten-cent coupon bills to fund recording a live studio album. According to the Toronto Star , Corin Raymond announced in January he was on a mission to pay for studio time at the Rogue Studios in Toronto, which accepted Canadian Tire money. Following a national tour, which made headlines for Raymond's ...Spinner.com18 May 2012

Eamon McGrath: Young CanadiansEamon McGrath Young Canadians White Whale Records [2012] Fire Note Says: Eamon McGrath's third record Young Canadians is a rousing and solid expansion of his country-punk spirit that represents his best yet! Album Review: "My life could be a broken record by Canada's Ramones" and "Rock and roll won't ever be the same" are two disclaiming confession statements by Eamon McGrath on his excellent third record Young Canadians . They of course occur in just the opening low key first track "Eternal Adolescence" that sets the stage for the 23 year old's ever evolving style of rock ...The Fire Note17 May 2012

Sticks & Stones – City Of GlassIt feels like an age since I’ve written about a band from Canada. Don’t worry Canadians, it’s no slight against you, rather me waiting for something really good from the great north. Find that really good stuff after the jump. The three piece have been around since 2008 and a quick look at City Of [...]Can You Hear This17 May 2012

Grimes :: Night Music (Video)Canadians are weird. I can say that because I happen to be one. But lets take for example Montreal's Grimes' recent video for her track "Night Music" . It is a heaping helping of all around strangeness from the track itself, in all its otherworldly, abstract electronic glory, to the dark, surreal and enchanting video. What do you all think?::: Off the Radar :::15 May 2012

Lessons From The Great EscapeThe Canadians win at music. We went to three things at the Canadian showcase: Hooded Fang (above), Slow Down Molasses, and Hot Panda, and all three were fucking great. I know it’s a cliché to say that Canadians seem to be disproportionately good at music, but on this weekend’s evidence, they just are. Born Gold [...]Song, by Toad13 May 2012

The Quintet – Jazz at Massey Hall (1953; 201 ..To Canadians, as the new 2012 liner notes to this historic meeting of the jazz minds so rightly notes, Massey Hall is a building. To fans of this music worldwide, it’s something else — not a place, nearly 3,000 seats large, that has played host to literally thousands of concerts over a stirring 118-year history. No, it’s a thing that [...]Something Else! Reviews12 May 2012

SKYDIGGERS-Northern ShoreAm I cool with throwing what little support my site has to offer over to Skydiggers? Yes!

Maverick Mac DeMarcoImage source: Bandcamp There's little in music I love more than the fusion of rock and glamor. Glam rock if you will. The attitude, the fashion, the provocation. These elements all make up Mac DeMarco's (formerly Makeout Videotape) sound. On the single, "Baby's Wearin' Blue Jeans" comparisons can be drawn from David Bowie and Lana Del Rey (and not just because they too, have songs about blue jeans). The vibe is a bit Bowie; the breathy delivery like that of Ms. Del Rey. As for DeMaro, completely unabashed, he's fully capable of offending and intriguing at ...SoundDessert9 May 2012
