Winnipeg represent!
always fun to see someone discover a new band for the first time (more or less)
I think Cali is right that In the Trees is their gold standard
I'm often partial to a band's initial rough around the edges debut album and I think the Watchmen's McLaren Furnace Room is no exception
will never forget the first time I saw them- they were playing multiple nights at the Power Plant at UofA, they just rocked the place down, unfortunately my best friend's then girlfriend (now wife of 20+ years) meathead/unhinged ex boyfriend showed up and was literally going to kill him so we had to escape through the kitchen..anyways they were playing the next night , so all good
