Record Review: YEW – Too EP
So I’ll start by being completely honest in saying that when I heard some of the initial teasers and demo tracks that were leaked by Yew over a year ago I was very underwhelmed, but I have learned quite a few times that you cannot judge an album based on any of these sound bytes. And I … Continue reading
Interview: Phillip Cope of Kylesa
Like fellow Georgians Mastodon and Baroness, Kylesa have been pushing the boundaries of heavy music into weird and fascinating places for over a decade now.

I have followed the band closely for a few years now and have been a big fan of … Continue reading
Record Review: Deep Purple – Now What!?
It has been a while since I’ve had the pleasure of listening to a new Deep Purple album, seven years to be exact. A lot has changed in seven years, none more important and saddening than the loss of keyboardist Jon Lord, who passed away last July. R.I.P. Jon Lord. For anyone familiar with Deep Purple they will no doubt … Continue reading

Performance art, especially in big cities like Toronto is everywhere; there is a strong chance that if you were placed anywhere in the city randomly, you could find some type of art, music or performance within 5 minutes walking. On April 28th. I strolled down to The Garrison to see a couple of the most … Continue reading
Record Review: Bring Me The Horizon – Sempiternal
The latest work of genre mashing awesomeness from British metalcore band Bring Me The Horizon is in one word – brilliant. In 8 words “my favorite album of the year so far”.
