BY LUCAS SILVEIRA OF THE CLIKS from the web site Blurt When I was asked to do this piece, I didn't even have to think twice about what I would write about. About three years ago, in early January in my hometown of Toronto, I woke up to the day I would sign my very first major label record deal. I peaked out the door to see how cold it was because if I could avoid driving, I would like to walk ...

I was going to tell you about Ben Wardle and his wonderful blog, but today he shut it down. Like a drummer who can't work out the beginning to "Rock And Roll", my timing is off. Ben has been in A&R, management, run a record label (he released Joe Strummer's work) and is now a journalist. I've never figured out how freelance journalists with a family to support can make a living from writing and...

This band had one of my favorite lps of the year back in '07.There is a really interesting story behind this hard rocking band. The band formed in the middle of the decade in Toronto and immediately began gaining a ton of notice for two things: their blistering stage show and that the band's lead singer is a transgendered male (singer Lucas Silveira used to be a female) who is leading an all-fe...

I just discovered this group. They are an all female (kind of) Canadian band that are big with the Logo crowd, but that's not why you should give them a listen. They have a great rock sound and a lead singer that sounds like Gwen Stefani. Picture No Doubt- less ska, more rock. On there new CD they also employ some strings (like on this button track) which lends a refreshing quality to what you ...

This one rocks a little harder and there's no whining. I leave you with this because I just got my Redman Primer from Troy and I must go study. :P

I like to buy albums I’ve been anticipating, or “preview” albums selectively…I find if I download everything that catches my ear, the music doesn’t get a fair chance because I’m too overwhelmed. So about 25 new albums were added to my collection this year. I thought about making a Top Ten list, but realistically, I was still catching up on 2006 albums all year, and even some 2005s. So

I realize that it’s been awhile since I’ve had a bonafide music post. Mostly because it’s been a long time since I’ve found something that y’all didn’t introduce me too. So – I had a double craving for something new – something just mine, if only for a second before I shared it with y’all. That doesn’t happen a lot because I’m too lazy to search for good stuff – all my e

well thanks to Chuckyi'm a kinda diggin this thenall music says about this band:Gutsy, melodic, dramatic, and dark, Toronto's the Cliks arrived on the scene in 2007 with two strong bullet points. First, they covered Justin Timberlake's hit "Cry Me a River" in a White Stripes meets the Pretenders style, and second, leader Lucas Silveira was a transgendered FTM (female-to-male) leading an all-fem...
