John Londono I didn't study a whole lot of history in school - to my regret - and the topics I did cover didn't include the War Of 1812. I did, however, take a lot of math courses so I am able to calculate that this is the 200th anniversary of said conflict between the then-British territory that would become known as Canada and the newly-independent United States of America. The precise causes of the war aren't entirely clear to me but based on the musical events being scheduled at Toronto's Historic Fort [...]
Tweet vaso link Chad VanGaalen's Diaper Island instantly earned a place on my list of favorite releases of 2011. Prior to that I was a fan of his work as producer/engineer of Flemish Eye labelmates Women. His brand of rambling, echoed, jangly folk/rock is unique and infectious and perhaps somewhat of an acquired taste. His voice trembles and his guitar playing has all the sloppiness of punk rock, but, for me at least, it's that fiercely unique sound-representative, no [...]
Frank Yang Usually when it comes time to post one of these weekly covers - which would be every week - at least half of the equation is a famous or at least notable artist with a significant backstory to them. That that is not so much the case this week should not take anything away from either the coverer or coveree - I actually think it makes it more interesting. I mean, how often does an English band working their first album opt to record and release as a b-side a cover of an active, [...]
Despite the unfortunate title, Diaper Island is an amazing, heady mix of reverbed mood woven with a voice that at times seems barely strong enough to sustain the weight of the sometimes sad words sung. I had somehow missed the boat on finding him through any of his previous three releases, but I'm more than happy with what I've found. The album is a tender mix of beautifully paranoid and touching songwriting, all articulated with a delicacy that few can match. Though off of 20082s Soft Airplane , the tremendous 'Rabid [...]

EMJ Top 20 Readers voted and here's the result... welcome to EMJ's Top 20 Releases of 2011. 3 High Places- Original Colors High Places' most introspective and mature album yet is characterised by foreboding melodies, with Mary Pearson's vocals utilised in an eerie, haunted way and Rob Barber's ever-clever programming taking a dancier route.

SXSW Preview: Adam and the Amethysts
There's so many acts coming into town, it gets difficult to narrow down the ones that you really want to promote, as you love them all equally. I figure I should give my first shout out to a Canadien group, as they don't always get to cross the borders as much as we'd like, so here's Adam and the Amethysts . Adam and the Amethysts is primarily the project of Adam Waito, who moved to Montreal to start off his career. He spent some time playing [...]
