February 8, 2010 is the day that Massive Attack releases their fifth studio album.
Another release on January 26th is Toronto electro-rock duo Woodhands. Remorsecapade is the follow-up to their insanely fun dancey 2008 Heart Attack. The duo has been touring constantly promoting Heart Attack. Paul been touring with his other band The Rural Alberta Advantage. Right now there are people who either like or dislike Woodhands. I totally …
It was a cold December 29, 2009 night in Ottawa. I went to Avant-Garde Bar and The Mercury Lounge to see some local talent.
Peter Projects was one act that I missed out at Pop Montreal this year. When I heard the name, I thought it would be him who I talked to at Pop Montreal but it was someone else. Who knew both had the same name. Music is a mix of indie pop electro hip-hop. The EP …

I like to call it a hipster club rave night without all the excessive plastic toys and bright colors. Well the place was …
Last night I went to Babylon Nightclub to see the band Shout Out Out Out Out (Usually its Shout OutX4 to make it very short). I was suppose to see another band that night but with persuading I went to this one instead. The opener was The Cansecos. I was glad to see them live …
