rise over run

all of which are highly active right now and still playing shows. get into it. add to the list if need be, please.

my friends play in a great band called By A Thread who already have an album out on Revalation and got a new one coming out this year. Also check out Honeysuckle Serontina, Three Inches Of Blood (who play kick ass old school style metal) and S.T.R.E.E.T.S. (Skating Toatlly Rules Everything Else Totally Sucks). That's pretty much Vancouver in a nutshell

Remember a band I liked that was from north of the border Ten Days Late. Anyone know what happened to them? I'd like a cd if they had one. I'll trade and burn a copy of something you want.

I don't know much about canadian bands but I do know they gave us all that god awful band sum 41. I curse you canada. blah!

yeah Ten Days Late is from Vancouver. they've been around for ever and I've never seen them! They still play once in a while, they just opened for DOA last month. as for SUM 41, that's just our revenge for Creed, Limp Bizkit, and Puddle Of Mudd! HAHA! Take that America!

i rarely laugh out loud when i read these message boards so you should pat yourself on the back. that was great.

Tegan & Sara, Joel Kroeker, The Way Out, Rae Spoon (all from BC)

If you ever hear anything more about them let me know. Like web site or such. I've looked and the sites were no longer working.

god speed you black emporer

THE GUESS WHO!

Oasis is not the "modern answer to the Beatles," Sloan is. Generators of some of the best pop music written in the late 90's/early 00's. ...And they're Canadian!

thanks, eh

by a thread has a new album coming out? nice, i didnt know they were still together

how about cough...IRE...cough
why does everyone always forget about them

sianspheric make great dreamy music and short films

"Underwhelmed" by Halifax's Sloan i s one of my favorite songs ever. Loved they're first two albums but the two or three since havent hit me as hard.

yeah their new album is fuckin' rules. i think it'll be out next spring. they were just laying low for a while, going through a few bass players until my buddy steve finally fit the role. they'll be touring europe sometime this year too

The kids from Sully used to be my neighbors (oh, but I'm just namedroppin' now...) here in Ottawa, but they moved to Toronto back in 98 in order to get a larger market. The last I heard they were dropped from Craftwerk records a few years back. Seems the label put some huge demands on them after Sarah McLaughlin went on hiatus (their biggest selling artist). Sully didnt want to have to change the way they sounded just because S.McL was gone.
I don't know what they're doing now

The Canadian government has already apologized for Bryan Adams many times...

Whew, at least nobody is talking about the real trump card, Nickelback. Christ, those guys make Limp Bizkit sound like Led Zep...

I'm in a canadian band!! Actually all the music on our website is old and not our best stuff so never mind

Does no one remember One Eyed God Prophecy? They were fucking tits!
