Month: July 2011
Ottawa’s The Flaps played at Mavericks for The Polymorphine’s EP Release show. They were pretty loud on their first song. But later they went to their surfy instrumental rock sound. Didn’t stay long since it was getting late. I think the band were playing new tunes on an upcoming album.
Montreal’s Devil Eyes played at Mavericks for The Polymorphine’s EP Release show. Very wild and grungey loud set this band put on. They were really great live too. Had alot of energy on stage.
Ottawa’s Thunder Uncle played at Mavericks for The Polymorphine’s EP Release show. It was very loud rocking set. Got there at 10pm and I thought they played a 15 minute set but eventually they started at 9:45pm.

I couldn’t help myself to see Hooded Fang on July 29, 2011. The night before they played at Mavericks for the Pop Off! Tour. This time they played at the lovely Black Sheep Inn in Wakefield Quebec. So I was like why not see them for the second time and thanks to a friend for …
Since the Polaris Music Prize Short listed album Creep On Creepin’ On dropped on April 5, 2011. Already a third music video has been out by Timber Timbre (With Women and Black Water). Talk about swift production. This time it’s from the beginning track from the album. I think Bad Ritaul is the stand out …
