The Luyas - Montreal QC
The lyrics are funny and smart, at times even touching. The music is playful and diverse: ranging from cacophonous piles of synth, to woven patterns of interlacing melody. It cuts a joke, it empties its wallet, it promises to get the tip next time, and when you smile, it smiles back. Listen to it and see if you like it.
Walrus - Halifax NS
Halifax’s Walrus channel their inner psychedelia with songs that range from trance to surf. Exclaim! writes that “the band somehow mix gentle, Brian Wilson vocal melodies and orchestrations with out-of-the-blue punk thrash parts that keep listeners guessing."
Pet Sun - Hamilton ON
Hailing from somewhere between Hamilton and the Gates of Hades, Pet Sun are a band of self-proclaimed Rock ‘N’ Roll heathens whose only goal is to unearth your inner demons as they entrance you with their doom laden garage tracks.
Traces - Montreal QC
Traces are a shoegaze/post-punk/psychedelic pop influenced trio from Montreal. Their sound combines the ethereal bliss of My Bloody Valentine with the relentlessness of Wire and the indie-pop sensibilities of Let’s Active.
