Just a real quick update to let you know about a new band I recently discovered called Reverie Sound Revue. They have a great, sweet sound - real Saturday afternoon music - and they have a new album out soon.
I've been hearing lots of hype about two other Canadian bands: Stars and Broken Social Scene. Stars don't really do it for me, but BSS have some trippy, nice, groove type stuff. I'd say that if you like Radiohead, you'd like Broken Social Scene.
A funny thing about Broken Social Scene is the incestuous nature of swapping band members around. They sound like a modern day Steely Dan in the way that the same band on stage at any two gigs would consist of different line ups. The singers are interchangeable - sometimes Emily Haines (Metric), sometimes Feist and sometimes Amy Millan.
If you want to get an idea of what Reverie Sound Revue are like, listen to Say Hello To The A.M. and check out their new video for An Anniversary Away.
