Mono What a great concept! All those useless demos and outtakes from your favorite band and turn them into an ongoing series of mail-order Cd’s. I like to hear the progressions or earlier interpretations of songs, and this is an ongoing series brought to us by Temporary Residence . The latest offering is from Mono,…

KUBICHEK! So you say you like Echo, well this will put your precious Echo to rest, no, not really, put it’s being likened to their kind. Less than satisfied with Bloc Party’s latest offering, didn’t like Editors, maybe take a gander with Kubichek!. I’m a sucker for this sound, even if they’re all paying homage…

Basia Bulat I guess it’s comforting for me to know that Canada is not having a shortage of songbirds by any means (case and point, please see Emily Haines, Feist, and on and on). I don’t like using old skool singer/musicians to make comparisons, but I can’t think of anybody else. Basia’s voice has a…

Junior Boys Hi-Dive 05-01-07 What a difference a couple of months make. Last time the Junior Boys were in town, I felt that their performance lacked excitement, inspiration, and motivation. Fast forward a couple of months, Coachella, and voila, instant charisma. The guys had a blast on stage, the crowd was loving every minute of…

San Serac Hi-Dive 05-01-07 I saw a couple of shows last night, all being good of course, but this one stood out as the most impressive.
