Japandroids Noise Finishes Pop Montreal Day Three

in
By Erik Leijon (CHARTattack) October 6, 2009 11:20 am
So it wasn't just me: the mood surrounding this year's Pop Montreal did feel slightly different. The shows were definitely more packed than usual — to the point where not getting into your favourite show seemed a likelihood — and the preconceptions about what an ideal Pop Montreal weekend were vastly changing. If you wanted to have a good time...

Music Waste Still Repping Vancouver Scene

in
By Quinn Omori (CHARTattack) June 15, 2009 3:50 pm
Music Waste, Vancouver's annual homegrown showcase of under-the-radar local talent, roared to life last week with an expanded focus on art, comedy, and, of course, music, and showed off some of the city's finest over a jam-packed five days. I opted to start at The Cobalt and made it to the city's longest standing punk bar in time to catch Tight...

Japandroids — Post-Nothing

in
By Cameron Gordon (CHARTattack) March 31, 2009 11:23 am
Japandroids are hard rockin' indie types out of Vancouver, and Post-Nothing is nothing if not pissy, pounding lunacy that'd likely slay in a live environment. Much like The White Stripes and No Age, Japandroids have just two members. And much like those two-piece terrors, they're able to rustle up quite a racket in spite of their modest...

CHARTattack PRESENTS | Fifteen Noisy, Messy Songs

in
By Dan Busheikin (CHARTattack) January 17, 2012 11:59 am
Feeling sluggish this morning? Same. But we've put together a little pick-me-up for you. Today we salute those artists who can make something beautiful out of dirty, messy noise. Noisy music has a sort of inherit spirituality: While angels up in heaven are plucking away at their tiny angel harps, us miserable humans are stuck on Earth, maxing out...

By CHARTattack Staff (CHARTattack) June 6, 2011 4:22 pm
Here's the bad news: The Red Hot Chili Peppers are releasing another album. The good news is it's not titled Dr. Johnny Skinz's Disproportionately Rambunctious Polar Express Machine-head. Here's some more bad news: That long-threatened Limp Bizkit album is actually coming out. Gold Cobra's in stores June 28. Unfortunately, there's no "silver...

Bonnaroo 2010 Day 4: Phoenix At Sunset Is The Perfect Ending

in
By Mike Bax (CHARTattack) June 16, 2010 11:20 am
The final day at Bonnaroo 2010 saw a few fans and press people packing up and leaving at scattered intervals throughout the day. This is not to sell the last day of Bonnaroo short, but after three days of porta-potties, poor sleep, body odor and a general underlying smell of compost surrounding the grounds it wasn't hard to feel the lure of...

Japandroids — No Singles

in
By Matt Blair (CHARTattack) May 21, 2010 3:40 pm
The tricky thing about the tracks on No Singles, which originally appeared on the early Japandroids EPs All Lies and Lullaby Death Jams, is judging them on their own merits following the duo's landmark Post-Nothing debut album. When Brian King and David Prowse came together to work on these out-of-print EPs — issued in runs of just five hundred...
