Toronto's TEENAGE KICKS have released their latest six song EP 'Be On My Side', which finds the group expanding beyond the grungy power-pop of the first release. We like the description of the music which is likened to "the girl you meet in high school that you end up marrying ten years later. Their songs stay with you, and you grow to love more about them as time goes by". Shortly before the release of the EP, the band unveiled the Teenage Kicks Singles Club, a service that will deliver two new songs to subscribers every few [...]

There's few bands that I can confidently put into the "Rock" category without putting some sort of prefix in front of it. Teenage Kicks aren't indie, electro, gloom, punk, or any of that stuff. They're rock and roll. If you check out the video for "Middle of the Night" below, you will see exactly what I mean. After you watch the video, head over to their website and check out The Single Club . Just for giving the guys your email, you'll get an A & B side every [...]

"Navy Skies is a Canadian rock band from Toronto, Ontario. Originally forming in 2012 under the name Rebel Rebel, the band was the predecessor to chief songwriter Travis Caine’s solo project, Travis Caine & The Lasting Effect. The lineup consists of Travis Caine (vocals and guitar), Kara Gauthier (keys), Bryan Wyshnicki (guitar), Paul Cope (drums), and Gary Hazelton (bass)". Rock music portrayed with impressive rigour and controlled menace, Navy Skies unleash their brand new digital single under a gleaming new moniker. Foo Fighters aficionados and heretics of cheerful Rock music will posture a broad smile, the [...]
Toronto pop/rock band Teenage Kicks' Be On My Side EP was self-released late last year. Since then, the foursome has gained some serious attention, as well as a slot at this year's South By Southwest. Download the third song off their recent release, "Middle Of The Night," below.

It's kind of a cliche, but it's hard to dispute that Monday nights are likely the least sexy night out of all the nights. Add in the daylight savings-type lag that many of us are dealing with today and there's plenty of ass dragging on this particular Monday night. Well there's no need for it. Just say no to un-sexy Mondays with help from the rather sultry new video for Middle of the Night from hill faves Teenage Kicks. The video alone is enough to steam up your evening like a scalding 20 minute shower of attractive scenster [...]
by Tiana Feng Things get heated up in Teenage Kicks ' latest video for "Middle of the Night". Do people ballet dance before sex?
one direction - one way or another (teenage kicks) you gotta give it up to the red nose day / comic relief charity for getting one direction on board as this years single artist (with a charming cheeky video to boot!). with the big red nose day event going on march 15th in the UK, the charity sent the boys over to africa to see the effects of donating to this charity (going on 25 years!)... and boy was it a wake up call for them zayn, louis and [...]
Well they've certainly gone ahead and slaughtered a classic Blondie song. Even Angelica from the cartoon "The Rugrats" did a better job. Filed under: Uncategorized

Here is the Best of 2012. Since it's 2012, why not make it a Top 12. I am counting down the Top 12 EPs that was released in 2012. It maybe a surprised when checking this Top 12 list that there is alot of Ottawa acts. Sorry if there is no description since I am swamped with various stuff happening in the month of December. Check it out! 1. Roberta Bondar - Roberta Bondar EP [ Review ] [...]
Well, here I was about to say that Camera2 was a group of up-and-comers out of Brooklyn, until I decided to check out their website . The band is made up of Andy Chase, Michael Jurin, Aric Gillis, and Mike Williams. The line-up may not sound too familiar right away, but this is pretty much a super group right here. These guys have been involved with bands like The Smashing Pumpkins, Tahiti 80, Teenage Kick, Teddybears, and Stellastarr*. To top off the sound, Camera2's upcoming album is co-produced by Bruce Driscoll of Blondfire , a band that is [...]
This would likely be completely obvious if you'd simply take a peak at the traffic stats for our little site here, but the Ack and I are perhaps the worst source for popular music - popular in the literal sense anyway. Honestly, I have no idea what determines which band or single ends up on the radio these days, other than "13 year old girls enjoy this former reality singing show contestant". But when you consider that Toronto outfit Teenage Kicks are better than just about any band you'd hear on modern rock radio, you'd think that jams [...]
by Tiana Feng Yesterday I attended the Juno Concert Series hosted by Exclaim!, Now Magazine and The Agency Group. Various Canadian artist's gathered for a night to cover songs from artists on Canada's Hall of Fame. Exclaim! has a good write up of all the songs featured. Highlights included Jay Malinowski doing a hilarious version of Shania Twain's "That Don't Impress Me Much" with strings as well as a July Talk style cover of Leonard Cohen's I'm Your Man . [...]
Cancer It kinda sucks. Luckily for us, there's this thing called "science" and "science", if given time to mature and bloom (like a cake or something) will eventually provide us with cure for cancer. However, that shit needs money. Which brings us to Movember. Since it's inception almost a decade ago, Movember has taken off as a worldwide initiative to focus on male related cancer issues. Since I too, am a male, I consider this to be a good thing. Our friends at Young Lions Music Club have taken considerable [...]
Live music picks for MONDAY NOVEMBER 12 through SATURDAY NOVEMBER 17, 2012. MONDAY NOVEMBER 12 / YELLOW OSTRICH / THE GARRISON / 1197 DUNDAS W / $13 / 19+ It's always refreshing to come across a band with a unique and fresh sound, and this is certainly true of Brooklyn's Yellow Ostrich . In the past, they've opened for Of Monsters and Men and Los Campesinos! , and now they're on tour in support of their latest album, Strange Land . Their [...]
by Tiana Feng Last night, I went to Teenage Kicks' last show with Jeff and Pat still in the band. You can read my review on Exclaim! . Not going to ramble too much about it here. It was my first time seeing all 4 bands live. I had dismissed Teenage Kicks' past shows thinking They always play Toronto , but since there was a change in order soon, I thought I'd finally go. I had a blast and the audience was full of [...]
I like Teenage Kicks. In fact, a quick search reveals that this is my fourth post featuring the Toronto outfit so far this year. That seems like a lot, and I'll simply point you in the direction of those previously linked posts as too why I enjoy them. Perhaps you might enjoy them too! So join their singles club , or go see them play Lee's Palace for the first time on October 5th. As a further whistle-wetter, here's the latest Singles Club release, My Days Are [...]
Hey there! You should read this original post on the hill by going here: Teenage Kicks - Jemima Surrender Hill faves Teenage Kicks pay tribute to Levon Helm on the latest release from their Singles Club , which also features The Dirty Nil , Julianna Riolino and The Sweet Mack chipping in with enthusiastic covers from The Band. Teenage Kicks' take on Jemima Surrender is a predictably enjoyable, rollicking affair, and the other covers are great too - each one a mix of soulfulness and reverence for Levon and [...]
