some less heard abouts around these parts but not fluff: United Steel Workers of Montreal - lot like The Silver Hearts, awesome in their own right Curry Guns and Maple Syurp - kinda space/prog rock-ish, floyd-ish with some more rock, great stuff from a young band (had my doubts over the confusing name at first but have been nothing but truly impressed live) Electroluminescent - sort of like Dave Lauzon, but not Dave Lauzon... awesome, just back from touring the netherlands and europe in general... have seen him a bunch of times but am freshly blown away ever new time BA Johnson - will make you smile, cry, laugh, shake your fist and dance like a ballerina all at once... epic have only seen Circuit Breaker once so don't have a lot to say but enjoyed the once... loads of energy... live drum n bass basically, nicely done Woodhands is awesome so long as its at ghost town I'll be doing my best to be there
