New Canadiana :: The Soupcans – Vintage Pizza Party Cassette

Eleven minutes of snarling, grease-dripping no-tonal swipe ‘n’ bash is all these charming party pukes need to leave an impression. Any longer and the crust would be as burnt as their guitar riffs. Utilizing the smallest amount of ingredients possible, this Toronto trio pogos into your living room and won’t leave until the lights come on. Nothing compares to the brain-bashing live show, but this hot little disc comes pretty damn close. INYRGRIP.

Review :: Dead Wife – Dead Wife

Dead Wife
Dead Wife
(Psychic Handshake / No Vacation)
Montreal, QC
::web/sounds::


From the DxWxSxYxHxF of Jesse Locke:
Copping the speed, angst and Xeroxed b&w paste-ups of classic 1980s crust, Dead Wife’s latest 7” hearkens back to the time when a stuttering robot reigned supreme. There’s a healthy dash of Riot Grrrl in their breakneck skuzz as well, and these brats could go toe-to-toe with anyone lurking in East Van’s weirdo punk grotto. Co-released by the always hep Psychic Handshake, newcomers No Vacation and recorded with the help of Choyce from Red Mass, this is a must-grip for the whole family now that Mom is worm food.

Fucked Corpse - Led Zeppelin Four Fucked Corpse
Led Zeppelin Four
(Bruised Tongue)
Ottawa, ON
::web/sounds::

From the vault of Joni Sadler (Ottawa, ON)
When I first heard about Fucked Corpse, I assumed that they were a grindcore band or something equally violent. What kind of pop group would choose a name like that, right? My initial judgements couldn’t have been much further from the truth: this Ottawa party collective may have grown a bit more aggressive since their early days (fans of sugary lo-fi pop freakouts would do well to check out their “Apple Meat” 7″ from a couple of years back), but those damn catchy hooks of theirs haven’t gone anywhere. Jangly guitar riffs trade off with tambourine smashes and woozy hazes of distortion, but the gang manages to steer mercifully clear of both gratuitious hippie psych meanderings and excessive noise. There are some genuinely catchy jams here, too – “Denim Outta Here” is a straight-up singalong noise pop anthem. These dudes are too busy having a good time to worry about polishing the fuzz from their songs, and you know what? That’s okay. It’s time to join their party.
