The New Odds — Cheerleader

By Steve McLean (CHARTattack) June 3, 2008 2:58 pm
A dozen years after the Odds' last studio album, the Vancouver band are back and they've hardly missed a beat. Their brand of power pop hasn't changed much, and that's just fine for a group who ranked among Canada's finest through the first half of the '90s. The infectious pop-rocker "My Happy Place" should be a new addition to the group...

By David McPherson (CHARTattack) June 14, 2005 11:36 am
Canadian bands intermixing members to help out solo ventures is all the rage these days. Stripper's Union — the latest of these musical mixes — features The Tragically Hip's Rob Baker and his buddy Craig Northey (formerly of The Odds).

Canada has a new record label, but its first signing involves two reunions. Pheromone Recordings has been launched by MapleCore and former MapleMusic Recordings GM Kim Cooke, and the Fontana North-distributed label's first roster members are The New Odds.

By Debbie Bento (CHARTattack) August 15, 2000 11:00 am
Sadly, the Odds are no more, but their songs are still being played on heavy rotation on alternative radio stations. Listening to "Eat My Brain," "Heterosexual Man" and "Wendy Under The Stars" throw you back to a time when Canadian radio was filled with sunny pop-rock anthems. Single Slices is a perfect package that...
