Looking at the track names on Halifax's The Got To Get Got's debut should give you a sense as to the group's sound. The band reference everything from '80s thrash metal ("Hell Awaits, Maybe") to the aughts indie ("Some Loud Thunder Clap Your Hands Say Boom") and are a great synthesis of sound. There's an overwhelming...

Dog Day Debut Album In Halifax

in

An early show in Halifax is tough to pull off. As a city, we've grown accustomed to pre-drinking until midnight before hitting the town. But Dog Day's CD release show for Concentration at Reflections Cabaret had to go off before the venue turned into a dance club, so that was enough reason to tear us from our growlers of Propeller. Halfway...

The Got To Get Got's video for Sahalee's "Gettin' Dirty In The Afterlife" features the Halifax-based band all dressed in white while doing everyday things: drinking milk, trying on horse masks, brushing their teeth, putting on makeup and... blow-drying their hair with fans (note: this does not work for me and gives me major frizz, but...

I saw The Got To Get Got last year with Bruce Peninsula and was impressed. I'm considerably less impressed with this record. I guess they're better live than on record. Or maybe it was just a case of aural beer goggles.

Instead of subjecting myself to Wolf Parade on Saturday night (I love them on record, but like Jen White I think they're horrendous live), I opted to head to the Whippersnapper Gallery on College West for the Bruce Peninsula show. Things started with One Heart Many Hands (real name Steve Hesselink) who's the drummer for We're Marching On. As One...

The Got To Get Got Come Together From A Distance

in
By Shannon Webb-Campbell (CHARTattack) July 26, 2007 5:30 pm
North Of America's Mark Mullane, Michael Catano and Mark Colavecchia have created their musical magnum opus with The Got To Get Got. The bi-coastal pursuit borders on madness, as the majority of the arts collective's members have never met but have still managed to merge musically. Mullane is the sole member who has divided his time in both...
