We're in the second half of the year now (where did the time go?) and I've been pretty impressed by some of the records released so far. But the last couple months have made me realize my top 10 list at the end of the year is going to be very... Black. That's 'cause there are three records I've absolutely loved have been or...

I've been going through my CDs at home, obsessively listening to them one by one. I moved into my own place in May, and i'm trying to figure out which CDs I should keep and which I should jettison. I put Alexisonfire's Crisis on yesterday, and I'm definitely keeping it. While it's probably my least favourite Alexisonfire album...

When I was a teenager, I was a rabid rock 'n' roll fan who pretty much hated any other type of music. I eventually got over this phase and this stupidity, but from the age of about 15 to 17, I only cared about rock and thought everything else was... well... shit. (Even classical music, on which I'd been raised.) Ironically, Toronto...

I've just emerged from an evening which saw me rediscover British trip-hop/trance act Faithless (more on that tomorrow), but I've mostly spent the morning realizing that Walter Schreifels' An Open Letter To The Scene debut solo album is really, really great. In case you don't know who Schreifels is, he started his music career as...

Bedouin Soundclash may have been around for a while now, but I didn't get seriously into them until recently. Sure, I'd heard their Root Fire debut album and Sounding A Mosaic disc in university and thought they were pretty decent, but I never really give them much second thought and was of the opinion that they weren't really my...

Today, I'm launching a new segment in which I'll be featuring a track I'm enjoying every day. It'll be different from Ed Skira's Don't Look Back (In Anger) in that it will highlight songs both past and present that I'm enjoying that day, but which haven't necessarily influenced my life at all. The first track is...
