#22 • Preoccupations

Preoccupations (fka Viet Cong) is a Calgary based band but since Matt Flegel recently moved to Montreal we figured they make the cut.

#21 • Technical Kidman

June 8, 2016

Technical indeed. This prog/Industrial band is so sharp and tight they border on electro. That said there is a human element that shines through the machines and their song writing is far more interesting than any formulaic dance music. They have a new album out which you can get here: Something Stranger Coming on the Horizon and the play Youngnesse they did the music for is on stage now at Festival OFFTA in Montreal!

are the perfect combination of simple and complex. Post post post punk, slightly experimental, definitely dark. Once I told Ben Shemie they were like a zero-pop band. He said “does that mean we’ll never be popular?” No, Ben, no it doesn’t.
