The comment about Fury In The Slaughterhouse having a Canadian sound must be put in context. This context is that the comments were made circa 1998-2000. So I'd say the Montreal sound would not be a fair example. However I believe the Hip did much touring in Germany back then. Some of my friends saw them in Dusseldorf, for example, almost by accident. The Germans who I speak of are quite familiar with The hip, 54 40, that sort of thing.
As to a Canadian sound now? I have no idea. Most Canadian music I hear in Europe is Avril Lavigne, Nickelback, Celine Dion; but I've been occaisionally suprised by what you get to hear.
I know Troutman's favorite Euro band is still Rockbitch!
