I’m a week late on this I know; I’ve been busy training and whatnot. Regardless, here is the official music video for Gold Guns Girls from Metric’s 2009 full-length Fantasies.

I haven’t listened to Metric in months.  I didn’t really fall in love in love with their last album.  After waking up to this song this morning, I’ve decided it may be time to re-evaluate certain life-decisions I’ve made.  Sick Muse was the 3rd single released in support of  Metric’s fourth full-length effort Fantasies, which hit [...]

Today’s contribution to Music Monday comes from the Guelph, Ontario singer-songwriter Gentleman Reg, also known as Reg Vermue.  To Some It Comes Easy can be found on Gentleman Reg’s 4th studio album Jet Black, released on February 24th of this year via the Canadian independent label Arts & Crafts; the album features contributions from Metric front-woman [...]

Today’s tune is a cover of the Stars classic One More Night, from their cheekily titled 2007 remix album Do You Trust Your Friends; the album features covers of Stars songs from artists such as Final Fantasy, The Most Serene Republic, Metric, and Young Galaxy.  This particular cover is done by Broken Social Scene lead guitarist [...]

Tonight’s post features another tune from the two-time Polaris Music Prize nominated Calgarian Chad VanGaalen.  City of Electric Light can be found on VanGaalen’s third full-length album Soft Airplane, released in September of 2008.  In 2007, VanGaalen’s Skelliconnection album was short-listed for the Polaris Music Prize, eventually bowing out to the winner Close to Paradise, from Patrick Watson.  [...]

Keeping with the recent Canadian-themed posts, I thought I would bring out another fantastic piece done by Canada’s own Metric.  Live it out is the title track off Metric’s 2nd full-length album, released in 2005.  The album is a fine example of Metric’s use of simplicity meshed with a new wave sound, and was well received throughout North [...]

I’ve got a disgustingly good tune today for everyone to wind their weekend down with.  Gimme Sympathy can be found on Metric’s brand-new album Fantasies, officially released on April 7th, 2009.  The acoustic version of Gimme Sympathy is another track that was only included as a bonus-track when pre-ordering Fantasies.  Currently based out of Brooklyn, LA, [...]

With Metric’s new album Fantasies less than a month away from release, I decided now would be a good time to post this tune.  Waves is the bonus track that can only be found on the limited edition release of the album, via Metric’s online store.  The standard release can be pre-ordered today and downloaded in its entirety [...]

The first post of the week is coming a day late today.  This has a lot to do with the amount of beer I drank at the Calgary Flames/Montreal Canadiens game last night.  If anyone is wondering, my Flames won 6-2.  After a day full of glasses of water and very slow movements, I’m ready [...]

Although I haven’t fully recovered emotionally from the Superbowl yesterday, I felt I needed to post today.  The funny thing is that my team wasn’t even in the damn game and I still took the loss harder than a healthy person should.  Anyways, today I felt like sharing a song from the Canadian indie super-group Broken [...]
