And some piccies.

 

 

 

Is there any musician in Canada that hasn't contributed to Broken Social Scene?

*thinks*

 

Nope.

 

:P

 

I don't even know what she has done with them. Not too much though, I was just using that to get people's attention.

 

Check out Some Are Lakes. That song completely floored me first listen.

I check out all the bands you recommend these days Briggs. Seriously, one-third, if not more, of all the music ive got this year is Canadian. I'll definitely take a look.

Awesome!

 

I just think it is lame how Pitchfork/Rolling Stone/NME etc. only ever focus on the same Canadian bands when there are so many Canadian bands and albums that fly under the radar but are better.

 

Like Zeus. I don't get how more people haven't picked up on them!

You're here to save the unappreiciated Canadian music scene!

I'll try! haha

Also check out anything short listed for the Polaris. usually good stuff. I saw the Besnard Lakes in Quebec City two nights ago and was blown away. Had never listened to them before but went since I had a pass and because they were Polaris nominated.

I'm torn this year. So many good albums nominated.

I saw them open for The Decemberists a zillion years ago. They were pretty good, but I haven't really followed them ever since. Guess I should catch up. :nice:

Liz (lead singer) liked a comment I made on their facebook page. :D

Nope.
