by teepoo Next up in the random hipster rooftop party was Montreal's Red Mass. The giant group brought 4 members to stage in a garage rock frenzy. It was really surprising to me that for an outdoor rooftop show, you couldn't actually hear it from the street. Seemed pretty secret. Red Mass- Saturn MYSPACE | WEBSITE Gallery after the jump [...]
Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News , Exclusive Vice Records Red Mass are one of the most open-minded, open-armed garage rock bands on the planet, with a revolving door of 50-odd spiritual-minded contributors sharing a creative space in Montreal. Their disorganization lends to creativity, as they mix surf-rock, psychedelia, violin-loops over film dialogue -- whatever anyone brings to the table. But that same instability makes for a hit-and-miss live show, as it did [...]
These are clearly the best bands playing at NXNE this year and if anyone tells you otherwise, they are lying to you. The best ones are bolded. WEDNESDAY 15 JUN 2011 Pat Jordache 9 PM – Pat Jordache @ The Garrison <a href= http://awmusic.ca/1/mp3/Pat%20 Jordache%20-%20Get%20It.mp3("G et It -- I Know You're Going To") 10 PM – Wax Mannequin @ Bovine Sex Club ("Broken Friends") 11 PM – Red Mass @ Horseshoe ("Saturn") [...]
I'll be leaving in approximately three hours from Cleveland, weaving my way through the northern scenic regions of Pennsylvania until I finally hit the brakes in Buffalo. After a bout with a basket of chicken wings, the lady and I are headed into the land of Ice Hockey and Rush. We're having a layover in Niagara. I hear them falls are romantic. In any event, by my calculations, this is at least a good 7-8 hours worth of road-trippin' over the next 24 hours. I can't be the only one hitting the open road today/tomorrow with [...]

As I continue onward with my NXNE 'bands to watch while drinking alcohol' list, I continue to come across snags in the scheduling. There are so many killer acts playing down the street from each other at the same time. The proximity of location means nil in these situations. The upshot is that there are enough bands to go around. These two bands are going to be difficult for me to get to, but that's due neither in part to our lack of ambition, nor our desire to break a [...]

Filed under: News , Exclusive , New Music , Canada It's nice to see the folks at Hollywood Walk of Fame headquarters finally getting their act in gear and awarding Roy Orbison a star on their historic promenade. While it's anyone's guess how a wacky celeb like Paul "Pee-wee Herman" Reubens got a coveted spot on Hollywood Boulevard more than two decades before the legendary '60s crooner, but at least things will be set right on Jan 29 when Orbison gets his due .

Esto es MP3 | 3PM. Contenido legal y gratuito para llevar de paseo, al mejor estilo de Cortesía de la Casa. Red Mass. Al menos una buena parte de ellos. Cuando se habla de verdaderas "Super Bandas" canadienses es inevitable mencionar a Broken Social Scene . Así que ahí tienen, ya la mencioné. Hoy nos convoca otra "Super Banda" proveniente del país de la hoja de arce, de hecho "Super" se queda corto ya que Red Mass es conformada por más de 30 músicos de indiscutible calidad, [...]
Filed under: New Music , Canada Imagine if Canadian indie heroes Broken Social Scene played garage rock and hailed from Quebec. Now add about fifteen more musicians to their ranks and dub the whole thing Red Mass . This only scratches the surface when it comes to introducing Montreal's premier music collective. The mastermind of Roy 'Choyce' Vucino (a veteran of the city's punk scene), Red Mass is a freewheeling sonic experiment championing everything from angst-ridden rock to avant-garde electronics. "It's almost like you're [...]

by Bill Pearis DOWNLOAD : Red Mass - Saturn (MP3) Red Mass @ La Sala Rossa - Nov 18, 2009 I'm currently up here in Montreal getting ready for the fourth annual M for Montreal , a music festival/industry event mashup that showcases nearly 30 of the city's bands/artists who are ready, in the eyes and ears of festival organizers, to make the leap from a local [...]
The Halifax Pop Explosion recently announced the latest editions to this year's lineup, and so we wanted to make sure we passed the news on (another reminder that you can buy tickets here ). I know the lineup is generating a lot of excitement here in Haltown already, but if you've been sitting where you are thinking about coming here for HPX, perhaps someone listed below can help push you over the edge. I mean Girl Talk, c'maaan guy, get your neon gear on and get amped! Just check the song below, dude mixes [...]
Hey Roy "Choyce" Vucino m'a envoyé les tracks de son tout nouveau projet RED MASS ! ... Ex frontman des CPC Gangangs, membre des Sexareenos, des Del Gators, des Enfants Sauvages et j'en passe, "Choyce" se lance en solo avec RED MASS . Un projet, un concept. 9 personnes sur scène, un manifeste, du garage punk et une énorme dose de psychédélisme. Leur 122 sorti sur Psychic Handshake en novembre est à l'image du mélange : une bombe catchy. Mention spéciale pour terrorizer (que vous passerez en [...]
I remember thinking halfway through the M for Montreal festival, "None of these bands will ever play Market Hotel." So many of the bands exuded a professionalism/flash/showmans hip that you just couldn't imagine them playing a semi-legal venue in Brooklyn without a real stage* where your only beverage option is PBR. Not that there's anything wrong with that. I like a little showmanship and the bands' technical abilities, but after seeing so many DIY bands at DIY venues, it was a bit of a shock to see bands trying so hard. [...]
