Video debut from Sex With Strangers starring the band, an artist, lots of pretty paint colours and some FREAKY. You want to watch it because it’s slick.

Full photo gallery from Caribou’s foray to Vancouver’s Wet Coast on October 3rd at Vogue Theatre. Lovely pics, if I do say so myself. Because I took them. Oh and the music? Wooshy wonderful.

Have a listen to the wooshy and wonderful brand-new Röyksopp album, Senior, a week before its release. It’s pretty and fantastic and works amazingly well with a hangover.

Get your red-hot Yeasayer remix here! Bass by Master Control. Free for your ears. Or your eyes, if you’re so inclined!

What would summer be without a little Bocci? Ah bocci, the art of throwing small, heavy globes at each other across a lawn. And to make it more rock, let’s just add in Vancouver’s robot rockers Sex With Strangers, shall we?

Massive Attack live and blindingly good at Vancouver’s Malkin Bowl, May 29th. Behold this gallery with light show bonanza. The Backstage Rider celebrated her birthday remembering time she had a chance to meet Massive Attack, but couldn’t think up a good enough opening salvo, so walked on by. Nevermind, they were still fugging awesome. Even in the rain.

AussieUK drum n’ bassterds Pendulum give us not one but TWO ironic rock hands for March. See if you can figure out which of the two was the most wasted.

In which a critic subjectively goes through an album and determines its relevancy based on taste, easily dismissable by the reader. In this installment, and belatedly because the Olympics put me off by two weeks, Hot Chip’s happy clappy dancey “One Life Stand”.

Throwin’ the horns. The Devil’s hand. Rock Hand. Call it what you will, it is the sign of ULTIMATE MUSICAL MAYHEM. And like revenge it is best served cold…and it is very cold in Toronto where Paul Banwatt from electro dance geeks Woodhands come from.
