Finger Eleven Touring with Kid Rock

Finger Eleven will be opening for Kid Rock while he embarks on his European tour.  The Canadian rock group, who you may know best from their smash hit “Paralyzer,” which is officially the18th most downloaded song in history (can you believe that!?).  I think that, if you happen to be near one of their tour […]

Here’s the official music video for the song “World Timebomb” by One Second 2 Late, off of their album entitled after this single. The album was released earlier this year and is their debut CD. I like the beat of the song and the message of it. The video for is interesting too. Check it […]

The Black Lungs "Hold Fast (Sink or Swim)"

The Black Lungs is fronted by Wade MacNeil who is also the guitarist for AlexisonFire.  I’m guessing he just wanted a side project to be able to be the lead singer but it hasn’t been the most successful venture - all of the members of the band have quit so, when they tour, Pat Pengelly […]

Wow.  With the U.S. presidential elections just a little more than a week away, I got a real crack out of this weekend that pokes fun at some of the world’s most recognizable politicians.   You’ll see appearances from Barack Obama, John McCain, Hillary Clinton, President Bush and even personalities and stars like Anderson Cooper, David […]

Die Mannequin "Saved by Strangers" - Video

I have to admit that Toronto-based punk rock group, Die Mannequin, is not my style but I know there are Canadians out there who love them.  It’s not their genre that I dislike but I think that their songs, like “Saved by Strangers,” are just really plain.  Anyway, the track originally came from their 2007 […]

Hedley "Never Too Late" - Video

This video by Hedley for their single "Never Too Late" is pure cheesiness at it’s best.  It’s clearly a play on the video for Duran Duran’s 80s classic hit "Rio."  For fun, I’ve included both videos so you can compare. 

Duran Duran’s "Rio" is almost as cheesy.  It was the original and is pretty typical […]

Avril Lavigne and Deryck Whibley Divorcing?

Are Canada’s hottest young couple calling it quits? That’s what reports are saying.  The two have been married for 2 years now and I actually thought they might be an example of young Hollywood getting married really early in life but who were so right for each other, it didn’t matter.  I hope they can […]

Matt Mays & El Torpedo "Tall Trees" - Video

I have to admit that I didn’t have high hopes for “Tall Trees” by Matt Mays and El Torpedo but I was pleasantly surprised.  It kind of reminds me in some ways of an old Tom Petty song and, well, I kinda dig Tom Petty.
