Samson , singer and songwriter for The Weakerthans, released his debut solo album, Provincial , to much critical acclaim.  It was one of our favorite albums from 2012 and we thought it was about time we share something from it.

It's all over the place genre-wise, but I think it is a pretty solid collection. Amanda Palmer - [...]

Best of 2012: Tracks

I know I waxed philosophical about the value of an album as a whole earlier this week but don't get me wrong- I treasure my iPod and it is jam packed with playlists with every theme under the sun. Including a "Best of..." for 2012. Here is the ten I've chosen from that ...pretty extensive list that has soundtracked my year. Melanie and Barlow contributed ten of their carefully cultivated choices each to help round it out and here's our official Best Tracks of 2012 . [Tiffiny] Apologies, I Have None - The [...]

Hard Times (come again no more): The Fuel/Friends Autumn 2012 Mix When all the green slides out of the leaves, and the fiery yellows light up the skies overhead on my walk to work, there's always the temptation for that Seasonal Affective kick-in-the-ass to creep in also. The chill in the air of October gets my attention and makes me introspect in a way that I do not do in the lazy indulgence of summer. Last year, a good friend of mine commented that my autumn mix was almost too sad to listen to, and yeah - there is something about this season that has, in the past, [...]

Concert Review: John K Samson, September 6th, Bathurst 918

Concert Review: John K Samson, September 6th, Bathurst 918 The John K Samson show took place at the former Toronto Buddhist Church, now known simply as 918 Bathurst, which is now a culture, arts, media, and education centre between Bloor and Dupont. The main room was perfect for a quiet intimate show with 90 percent of guests seated. The show was an all ages and also a dry show so it was minus the distraction of bottles and glasses clinking. On the way out the door I even saw some that chose to bring their young kids. Michael Feuerstack, guitarist of Wooden Stars and more [...]

JOHN K. SAMSON — PROVINICIAL

JOHN K. SAMSON — PROVINICIAL For his main outlet The Weakerthans and in his solo material, John K. Samson writes unabashedly for nerds, cat people, english majors, grad students. He can get away with being too clever for his own good because he knows how to use his cleverness to its best ends. He is proof that "hipster" isn't a fucking pejorative. You don't have to be truly starving to be an artist, you can speak to the peak of your intellect and still be profoundly sincere. Provincial   is a full-length collection of EPs [...]

A Look at the Polaris Long List: 33. John K. Samson – Provincial

Solo outing by the lead singer of Winnipeg group, The Weakerthans . Yes, you guessed it: more folky flavored singer-songwriter indie sounds. To be fair, it actually did sound pretty good (click the player above to hear for yourself) but honestly, how much of this f-cking stuff does the world need??! Sometimes I get frustrated 'cos I can't get people excited by what I think is an exceptionally well-made hip hop album and dismiss other albums for Polaris nomination advocacy on my part that, in hindsight, dust the floor with a lot of [...]

Friends, Yamantaka//Sonic Titan, DIIV and more at NXNE

Frank Yang It was sometime on Friday that, in looking at my NXNE schedule, that I realized just how Pitchfork-y it all was and for that, I apologize. It wasn't intentional, but there's no arguing that the balance of stuff I've heard of/stuff I was curious about/stuff that doesn't come through town all the time is pretty influenced by the online echo chamber. But to be fair, the options amongst my usual go-to of acts from the UK and Scandinavia was frightfully lean this year; like I can count them on one hand. [...]

Yamantaka//Sonic Titan and 39 other artists are your 2012 Polaris Music Prize long list

Yamantaka//Sonic Titan and 39 other artists are your 2012 Polaris Music Prize long list Derrick Belcham It figures that the first year that I would have been able to actually attend the long-list unveiling for the Polaris Music Prize , they up and move it from its usual home atop the Drake clear across the country to give Vancouver a taste of what the grand unveiling of the 40 albums selected as the top musical achievements in Canada over the past 12 months is like. But that's alright because as it turns out, this was also the first year that I don't need to make any changes to [...]

Review of Rose Cousins’ We Have Made A Spark

Review of Rose Cousins’ We Have Made A Spark Shervin Iainez Rose Cousins is not a new artist. The Charlottetown by way of Halifax artist has been releasing music for the better part of a decade and I've technically heard her before as she's guested on any number of Maritime-born records including Joel Plaskett's, but I'd not heard any of her own material until her third full-length album We Have Made A Spark , released at the end of February. And clearly that's been my loss. It's not a record that stops you in your [...]
