mooseheadsfan Posted June 8, 2006 Author Share Posted June 8, 2006 i know this hasnt been talked on in awhile but i was just looking and i dont see anybody saying that our lady peace is their favorite canadian band.

TraceOddity Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 i know this hasnt been talked on in awhile but i was just looking and i dont see anybody saying that our lady peace is their favorite canadian band. Is it because nobody knows who they are or just dont like them period? OLP are one of my favs...I prefer their earlier stuff though.'One Man Army' is one of the best songs EVER!! Others inclue Ron Sexsmith (Thanks Chris for exposing Ron to the mainstream!!), Broken Social Scene, Arcade Fire and Hot Hot Heat. And me, I guess...tee hee...

MrMagpie Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 what about sam roberts briggins I was just thinking artists that I listen to alot. I love Sam Roberts but I'm not an uber fan or anything. Other people I like include: Joel Plaskett The Tragically Hip Neil Young the Contact ...there are so many. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TraceOddity Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Yay Tragically Hip! Of course, they're hated here because for some reason it's cool to hate hometown bands when they make it big, but I still love Gord and the boys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClearAsCrystal Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Broken Social Scene and anyone that is associated with the arts and crafts community. indeed. 'Feist' is included in the Broken Social Scene community... Feist has my vote :thumbsup: Hot Hot Heat :cool: ' date=' the Arcade Fire (though i really only know two of their songs)[/quote'] The Arcade Fire.. does it matter if not all band members are from Canada? :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMagpie Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 ^ No, they live in Canada and have for a while so I'd say they are Canadian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Cadet Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 The Arcade Fire.. does it matter if not all band members are from Canada? :huh: Nope, they're based in Montreal, and most of the members are Canadian. They've won Juno awards. In a funny way, they're more of a Canadian ideal than they might have been, because of the way that they're from all over. Canada supposedly prides itself on being a mosaic rather than a melting pot, and there are so many influences in their music doing just that.

d.B.g Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 yeah i'm sorry, i don't know why i put the doves down, i wasn't thinking straight. however, Bedouin Soundclash is another sweeeeeet band from Canada. Check out "When the Night Feels My Song" for those of you who have never heard of them, and for those of you who have heard that song, but no other Bedouin song, listen to "Gyasi Went Home" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Space Cadet Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 I saw them, they were great! (Though they did use way too much reverb the entire time). I love the lead guy's voice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
