We Are The City

There always seems to be a built up anticipation when I go to watch a band perform live; especially when it's a band that I've seen before and thoroughly enjoyed. I get a strange kind of feeling - might be nervousness - wondering if they'll be as good as last time, or perhaps, maybe I had my beer headphones on, or maybe this time…then the curtains part, the first cord is struck and I'm lost in waves of familiar sound, worry free. Now throw all that in a converted movie theatre, the Rio on Vancouver's cultural [...]

Rah Rah- Breaking Hearts

Rah Rah - Henry (HD)
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 , [...]

Check Out: Said the Whale – "New Brighton" (CoS Premiere)

Check Out: Said the Whale – "New Brighton" (CoS Premiere) Vancouver pop band Said the Whale have had a pretty amazing 2011. In March, they won the Juno Award for New Group of the Year . Then, in July, they debuted a rollicking tour documentary on Canada's CBC network . Early next month, they'll cap off their monumental year with the release of a new EP, New Brighton . The four-track effort is the first new music from the band since their 2009 full-length, Islands Disappear . For a sense of the band's catchy, nuanced sound, CoS has an exclusive first [...]

We Are The City: "Happy New Year"

I'm a sucker for bands that brandish their hearts like cufflinks - right on their sleeves. And if they get a bit quirky while doing it, all the better. We Are The City, a prog-rock outfit from British Columbia, are just such a band. This song from their High School EP is full of nice [...]

A door that is slammed in my face.

A door that is slammed in my face. Last year, I posted a song by Aidan Knight and wrote, "It takes guts to release a song with pauses this long." I could say the same thing about the new We Are the City single. Entitled "Morning Song," there's no shortage of dead air during the twelve-second a cappella passage near to the beginning. It's a bold move that's well played. This comes from the upcoming Morning Song/Morning Song 73. That's right, two tracks called "Morning Song."

We Are the City: High School EP (Capsule Reviews)

We Are the City: High School EP (Capsule Reviews) Experimentation sometimes gets in the way of the grandiose majesty at which these songs aim, and it sometimes gets the better of the Canadian trio We Are the City. When Canadian indie-prog band We Are the City started playing songs in a live setting that would wind up on their new six-song EP, High School, the group took the unusual approach of playing shows and parties with their faces hidden by white t-shirts to conceal their identities. The songs were supposed to be a fictionalized side-project for the group, complete with its own characters and story lines, so We [...]

RATTLING TUNES FROM WE ARE THE CITY

RATTLING TUNES FROM WE ARE THE CITY 1987 by We Are The City Dark/Warm Air by We Are The City Get Happy by We Are The City I don't really know how I feel about masked bands. Sometimes it comes off mysterious and intriguing ( Miike Snow ), while other times it's just annoying and gimmicky. The former is the case for Canadian rockers We Are The City , who pull it off well with their creepy Scarecrow-esque, seen on their album cover and in a video [...]

North of Northwest: A Tale of Three "Cities"

Invisible Cities Band names, like troubles, come in threes: Wolf Parade, Wolf Eyes, AIDS Wolf; Deerhoof, Deer Tick, Deerhunter. Recently a trio of Canadian artists containing the word "City" have offered new releases. City and Colour - iTunes Live: SXSW (EP) After several reluctant rotations of this four-song EP, I realized that my leftover emotions from the histrionic, [...]

Canadian Musicfest 2011 suggestions that I won't be taking

Canadian Musicfest 2011 suggestions that I won't be taking Samantha Cardow With festivals come hard choices, and for this year's edition of Canadian Musicfest , getting underway with a handful of events tonight and in earnest as of tomorrow, I am choosing to eschew the club-hopping-ness that typically comes with these sorts of fest and largely plant myself in one place for each evening. Hard choice or lazy choice? A little of both. But just because I am staying put doesn't mean that I recommend others do the same. So by way of festival preview, here's a list of stuff that [...]
