Wow. I was wondering what happened to this.
For my FINAL pick I would like to add to
Temporary Canada's Own:
The Trews
"I know they aren't would the
World category was designed for but they are one of my all time favorite bands and I wanted them on my card. I went into this thing designing what I thought would be an amazing weekend festival. On the final night, the dream band would play a bunch of songs written by Trent Reznor, my
Songwriter."
"You can hear it in the first four bars of the album. A meaty, beaty, big and bouncy drum fill, followed by a glistening guitar line that could have been ripped from an old Rockpile album, and a breathy Hammond B3 so beautifully captured that it seems to conjure the dimensions of the room it sits in. It’s huge, but intimate. Heavy, but airborne. And the hook is strong enough that you could hang a whale from it."
