New York-via-Toronoto producer and photographer Headaches (aka Landon Speers) has frequently found himself on the road with our fellow Canadian friends Purity Ring as of late, and felt it was about time to share the tracks that were written, reworked and performed throughout two different tours, from the US to Australia; sounding just as vaporous and rich in production as ever. Below is the full tracklist of the beat-infused, unreleased gems, ending with the gorgeous ambient ballad "Enya Live in Concert". Tracklist: 01. Spilled Milk [...]

CBC News spoke to the mayor's office who says Rob Ford now has a "slight headache ... after a very unfortunate situation over the lunch hour" in City Hall on Tuesday. For some reason I can't not think of Chris Farley's Columbian Coffee Crystals "SNL" sketch, but I digress. "Jimmy Kimmel Live" ran the mayor's clip in slo-mo on last night's show. It's worth a peep here (but not as good at the Farley sketch, sry). h/t Digital Spy and Toronto [...]

Paul Simon - Still Crazy After All These Years "I have a headache." "Did you take a shower?," Love asked. "I tried everything - I took two showers, I took ibu profen, I drank three glasses of water. I still have it. I'm going to bed," Mrs. Love said. It struck me that that was one of the Loves eccentricities. They will raise children who believe taking a shower will cure a headache. That's just a thing that will come to pass. Every couple has its inexplicable eccentricities. [...]
Today is cold. We had a short visit from spring the last couple of days, but winter has returned. The day is cloudy and has nothing to commend it, nothing at all inviting. Lee, who with his wife cleans my house, found a dead mouse yesterday. His forensic training led him to think it was a couple of days dead. The mouse was under a table and hidden by the table legs. I credit Maddie with the kill. She had crouched on the kitchen floor for a long time then went back to the chair, her usual [...]

Metz is a phenomenal 3 piece noise rock band. Coming from Toronto and recently signed in Sub Pop artists, they surely know how to rock in a harsh and ecstatic way! Alex Edkins, Hayden Menzies and Chris Slorach have released their self-titled debut album on October 9th and this is their second single, "Wet Blanket" [...]

The debut S/T LP from METZ has been on heavy rotation here in the NWMusicPDX offices since it's release. Today we caught this bit of awesomeness over on PITCHFORK.TV, it's the band as they knock out the lead single from said album, Headache, at Villain! during CMJ in NYC. Portland, don't miss your chance to see 'em live and in person 11/3 at Bunk Bar. Check it out.
On its self-titled debut, the Canadian noise rock band METZ brings some heavy sounds and great riffs, but not a lot of variety or songwriting power. WATCH THE VIDEO

Photograph by Ro Cemm Pop Montreal is the dream festival scenario for punters in a lot of ways. Over five nights, roughly four hundred acts are hosted in venues amongst the city’s charming sprawl. A lot of these are in or very close to the creative enclave of Mile End, where you can easily lose hours meandering in and out of cafes, record stores and vintage shops before the live music even gets going. There is a noticeable lack of tourists so you feel you are experiencing this beguiling [...]

@subpop Género: Rock, psycho rock, noise. Alex Edkins (guitar, vocals), Chris Slorach (bass) y Hayden Menzies (drums) son de Canadá, forman METZ , y el próximo 9 de octubre debutarán de largo con disco homónimo. Hace unos días nos adelantaron Headache , su primer single, ahora nos tientan con el segundo, Wet Blanket . Ni a uno ni otro les falta energía y actitud, ahora bien, con Wet Blanket las palpitaciones psychobilly van a más. Vamos, un ciclón a prueba [...]

Wow, my friends are pretty awesome. Digital label Absent Fever , run by two of the coolest people ever, Tyler and Eloise , and Stadiums and Shrines ’ source of unlimited abstract thought and beauty, Dave, just teamed up to put on what will surly be an amazing night of art and music. If you’re in the New York area, I highly suggest you make it to this one. Tomorrow, July 18 @ 8pm 242 Troutman St., Brooklyn NY [...]
METZ is a new Canadian rock outfit, and they're making their full-length debut this October on Sub Pop records, which is a huge start for any up-and-comer. It's a big opportunity, and the band has the sound to match it. The first single from this forthcoming self-titled album hits hard . I mean h-a-r-d! It's, like, almost Drive Like Jehu's Yank Crime hard. Post-punk, post-hardcore, and noise rock are certainly strong with this trio. Shots of guitar feedback and pure noise fill what little air surrounding the uncompromising riffs that are pounding through the first [...]

ANBAD has been fastidiously avoiding the Queens's Jubilee this weekend, and has been buried in the pageantry-free chaos that is Youtube's collection of once-rare music videos as means of escape. This, and a conversation regarding bootlegs and their relative valuelessness today, made me wonder: how do bands ever find visceral, piercing influence s now? I can remember the exact time, place and effect of seeing a late-night clip of David Bowie performing " Be My Wife", from the honest-to-goodness-perfect Low album . I never saw it again until Youtube appeared ten years later, but I [...]

My buddy Landon (aka Headaches ) had some new music come out a couple weeks ago on a digital label called NeuroPlastic and I'd been meaning to write about it for sometime. Now THIS is what he does when he doesn't leave his bedroom for days on end. Hmmm... I'm really digging this stuff, it feels a lot lighter than past stuff, more upbeat. Exciting stuff happening for Landon - one thing which includes a move to Brooklyn. I'd be more upset if I didn't also get to be there as a part-time Brooklynite for work. So, [...]

Headaches - Oh Honey Landon Speers is quite the catch. He is, at the vary least, a triple threat. And if his photography , music , and all around charm aren’t enough to win you over, he can also cook some pretty amazing dishes . Or so I hear. That’s really all besides the point, however. Today on NeuroPlastic Records , the new Headache single dropped. Oh Honey is a new direction in context to some of [...]
I'm doing what I can to get caught up on all of the music I've missed in the last month. Here's what's making life better at the moment. . . Dream Brother - "Haunted Heart (ft Paul Spranger)" I was already stoked to have Ian from One For The Team putting out some solo material [...]
