		<title>Review :: Play Guitar &#8211; Cold Crystal Shield</title>

Play Guitar
Cold Crystal Shield
(Campaign For Infinity)
Montreal, QC // Halifax, NS // Whitehourse, YK
::web/sounds::




From the Mithril Shields of Aaron Levin:
Living in Alberta, I associate Calgary with the strange angular pop moves found on Cold Crystal Shield. In fact, I&#8217;m starting to believe the Calgary sound is just a weird amalgamation of Montreal&#8217;s pop experiments, Halifax&#8217;s 90s [...]]]></description>

Krang
They Came From Planet D
(Cassettes Records)
Edmonton, AB
::web/sounds::




From the Planet D residing citizen named Jesse Locke:
With their second transmission from the heart of the black hole sunrise, Edmonton’s Krang continue their clusterfuck of stoner rock, noise-haze and squiggly electronics. The band’s debut self-released EP was a voyage in its own right, but until now, they’ve never [...]]]></description>

		<title>Departure :: EMILY &#8211; Neat and Tidy in Your Mind (1985)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[





EMILY
Neat and Tidy in Your Mind
(Mo=Da=Mu)
Vancouver, BC
Originally Released: 1985




From the generally untidy mind of Aaron Levin:
Destructive guitar congruance. Menacing synthetic tones. Echo-to-infinity vox processing. Extirpated TASCAM wreckage. Neat and Tidy in My Mind is the most relentless barrage of left-field maximal synth North American has ever seen. It&#8217;s the second cassette by solo, multi-format Vancouver [...]]]></description>

Bad Vibrations
Bad Vibrations
(Brotherhood Cassettes)
Halifax, NS
::web/sounds::




From the not-so-bad vibrations of James Goddard:
Sometimes I imagine a future where everyone has forgotten what a guitar actually sounds like; Children brought up on a steady diet of French pop and Swedish 8-bit. Eventually, current trends like lo-fi would become ailments listed in the DSM VII with prescriptions like: 2 [...]]]></description>

Interview with: Andy and Edwin White
From: Tonstartssbandht
(conducted by: Jesse Locke)
Montreal, QC
::web/sounds::



Since transplanting themselves from the sunshine state of Florida to the frosty French Canadian north, pizza-lovin’ brothers Andy and Edwin White have been recording and releasing tunes at an almost nonsensical pace. On top of sparking up psych burners and daffy rappin’ trip-outs with their [...]]]></description>

Makeout Videotape
Eating Like a Kid
(Self Released)
Vancouver, BC
::web/sounds::




From the pocketed mesh-back of Aaron Levin:
It&#8217;s our future babylon: yuppies and junkies coagulating to celebrate their mutant post-human hedonism. And in some grande irony, the lounge-garage stylings of Makeout Videotape will part every velvet curtain to entertain the new world&#8217;s last taste of love; vocalist Mac DeMarco&#8217;s million-dollar [...]]]></description>

Mode Moderne
Ghosts Emerging
(Lust Neuvo Records)
Vancouver, BC
::web/sounds::




From the ghostly bedding of Aaron Levin:
Vancouver&#8217;s synthetic underground is bubbling for the second time since the 80s when labels and artists were populating basements, clubs, cassette racks, and ideas with bleak drum machines and coarse synthesizers. COSMETICS, magneticring, N.213, Twin Crystals, MYTHS, Von Bingen, Haunted Beard, [insert band I'm [...]]]></description>

Grown-Ups
I Can&#8217;t Win
(Bart Records)
Calgary, AB
::web/sounds::




From the post-pubescent sludge of Jesse Locke:
From The Cramps (radical) to Mates of State (barf) to the Plastic Ono Band (radical barfing), musical married couples are nothing new. However, what sets thee Grown-Ups’ Sara and Josiah Hughes apart is that they’re cuter than a pair of bulldogs on snowboards that know [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[





Colic
Best to Your Family
(Self Released)
Edmonton, AB
::web/sounds::




From the colic cleanse of Aaron Levin:
Colic resides as my favorite left-field discovery of 2009, splintering my identity with an onslaught of pop-sprinkled atonal adjective-everything. Best to Your Family reads like a distasteful Japanese stereotype: hyperactive occult meanderings, bent reflections from unknown metals, and piercing waves of inter-dimensional origin. Imagine [...]]]></description>
