Another track that made the October chart that is now ok to post to the masses. 80Kidz have had a very busy year, an album and a never ending remix schedule has meant that some of their mixes have fallen short from their usual quality.10月のチャートの中から更に投稿OKなトラックを今日もご紹介。今年はとっても大忙しな80Kidzはアルバムだけでなくリミッ
Review by: AliciaPhotos by: David ThaiI’m not really sure where to start because Metric has left me pretty blown away. They played their last show of their Canadian tour at the exquisite Orpheum theatre in Vancouver last night, to a crowd that was eager to soak up some pretty awesome Canadian talent.Opening for Metric was [...]Visit Killahbeez.com for the full post.
Canada has given us a lot of really sweet things: the Blackberry, Michael J. Fox, and IMAX, just to name a few. But the awesomeness doesn’t stop there. Toronto-based Metric is another great accomplishment for the Canucks; combining brassy, buzzing guitar hooks (“Help I’m alive/my heart keeps beating like a [...]
Metric have surprised many in the past few years and whilst they've never truly came through with one entire astounding record, there's plenty of individual songs that are truly remarkable and stand out from their discography.

The ima...
It's been a hot second since Metric's last album Monster Hospital (which was a pretty solid album). They've just announced a new tour (check the dates after the jump) called the "Help, I'm Alive Tour" and features Tokyo Police Club, The Dears, and Sebastien Grainger and the Mountains. The first single off their [...]
One of my most Trusted MOGgers (Hi, poeby!) followed a link to an older post and marveled at the provocative nature of the subject matter and the thoughtful give-and-take in the thread. Then she asked, "Whatever happened to this kind of post at MOG?" So I floated a couple of theories.Maybe the core group of MOGgers - the initial wave - covered so many bases in our first couple of years at MOG t...
