These aren't the best songs of the year. Shit, they might not even be new in 2011, they're just some goods from what I posted in the previous 12 months that particularly grab me. And I'm not going to get all evaluate-y and critique them against everything else or pick something from every genre just to prove how well rounded I am. In fact, I don't have any illusions that I have even covered all that much musical ground lately. Don't blame the music though, It's my fault. . . I've got too much on my plate, less time to [...]

Borcherdt records as a solo artist, contrasting Holy Fuck's experimental work with his subdued, atmospheric acoustic material, [...]

What started as a mix tape trading relationship between, Cory Thomas Hanson and Jesse Hlebo quickly morphed into an intricate aural and visual project that gave birth to White Fold. Hanson is better known as W-H-I-T-E and Hlebo via Swill Children . The two collaborated throughout the summer of 2011 to produce the material on the Feral / Free ep in a free form manner, taking inspiration from Salem, the eerie chants of gregorian monks, Brian Eno and other stranger influences. The result? We currently only have one track at the moment, [...]
Sophomore albums are a tricky thing. For the most part I have found them very interesting to discover, especially when they are from a familiar band I have lost track of for a few years. During my senior year of high school, my best friend Danny was raving about this Canadian alternative/ indie rock band that he absolutely loved. When he played me the band I was intrigued and wanted to hear more, which he gladly obliged. That band was Rah Rah . Fast forward to 2008 when they released their debut album Going Steady , [...]

Kel McKeown, aka Kelpe , has unveiled a pretty cool remix of 'Latin America' by Holy Fuck. It still has that avalanche sounding quality to it, but with added intricacies and fuzzy basslines. An easy choice for Track Of The Day in our opinion. http://www.kelpe.co.uk

Two apologies. One for missing last week (was on vacay) and two for not using asterixis (?) in the bad word up there. I guess I just feel that I want to preserve the true message that the band wants people to have when they learn of the name they have given to themselves. Plus, it is quite appropriate when you hear their tunes because they give you that sort of vibe. If you like this track and dig instrumentals (which I dew), then check out the rest of their catalouge. Very good stuff done for your ears. [...]
Our buddy Nick Isasi (@noodlecast) is making the trek to this year's Moogfest and he's put together his list of must-see artists who are performing at the festival. The lineup is pretty amazing and we're excited to have him helping us cover the event... It's finally October, which means that it's less than a month to go until Moogfest. Out of the four music festivals I have personally attended in the last four months, I believe Moogfest has the strongest lineup full of legends and rising names. [...]
Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News , Exclusive , New Releases Jeremy Chan Photography For her sophomore effort, 'Siberia,' Canadian electro-pop maven, Lights teamed up with indie-electro band Holy F--- and Juno-winning rapper Shad . The result is a record more sonically adventurous than most were expecting given her slick, radio-ready 2009 debut. When we crashed the singer's intimate release party in Toronto, Lights told Spinner that [...]
Filed under: News , Exclusive , New Releases Warner Music Siberia is a frozen wasteland in eastern Russia where criminals and political prisoners once endured years of hard labour in the region's infamous Gulag prison camps. It's also the title of the new album from Canadian electro-rock maven Lights. Obviously, Lights (also known as Valerie Poxleitner) never endured anything as brutal as Russian author Igor Dostoyevsky -- who spent time in a Siberian prison [...]

For the past few months, AC Entertainment has been surprising festivalgoers with the ever-evolving lineup for their second annual Asheville-based Halloween extravaganza, Moogfest. From now until the weekend of the festival, we will be sporadically putting the spotlight on some of the talent that can be found on the eccentric lineup. Today, we feature Canadian quartet Holy Fuck. Holy Fuck has never been a band to seek out the spotlight. (It comes with the territory of having that word in your name.) Despite the foul moniker, the Toronto-based sonic scientists [...]
