These articles brought forth are for a few different reasons:
1. It is relevant music information that pertains to you as a reader, no matter the level of intent or the genre.
2. They are relevant to the music I would be currently listening to or a genre I have put some attention and focus on.
3. I am somewhat patriotic about my Canadian music, so that always comes as a first for me. I enjoy music from all parts of the world respectively, but I still have to promote local if I can. Canadian music rocks!
4. Because it's humourous and we can ALWAYS use a good laugh. Rarely will it be at someone's expense...but then again I am just the guy talking about it. They're the ones causing the comments.
So in closing, I trust you all will not read EVERY single article posted here. But I hope you find something of use here and keep the conversation going by forwarding it onto someone else. Click on each article heading for redirection to the full article. Cheers!

Barenaked Ladies mark 25 years with Grinning Streak:
“To me it had a great resonance, because a grin — it has confidence without being cocky or over-confident. A grin has an intellectual swagger to it. It does acknowledge that we’ve gone through a lot of pain and struggles throughout our career and the album has a lot of hope involved, so I think that goes into the title and the songs." - Robertson
Grace Potter and the Nocturnals Board 'Devil's Train':
"I'm a big movie geek, so when we were invited to contribute to the project, I got really into it and started researching the original Lone Ranger radio broadcasts from the 1930s. I found 'Devil's Train' on an old Roy Acuff record, taught it to the guys and we recorded it live on the air for a show called Daytrotter. No fancy studio tricks . . . that's the recording you get right here and that's the way Tonto would want it." -Potter

“I actually do have some stuff done for that, but I’ve been just writing lots of music for lots of different things right now, and I’m going to kind of sort out what is what when I have enough material for something. There’s new Faceless stuff in the works, amongst other things there’s a Faceless cover album being worked on right now and that’s the things that’s the farthest along right now. I have three songs tracked for it so far. Hoping to get that out maybe early next year, maybe January or February. We’ll see, maybe sooner.

Album Review: Shining - One One One:
"Shining isn’t recreating what the music industry has been replenishing for the last 10 years. Shining isn’t sticking to any set of rules or values. Shining is creating their own musical sigil without any regard to what people may or may not think. Bravely released by these “Blackjazz Rebels,” the world can now experience One One One for themselves. For anyone with an eclectic taste in music, or a naturally curious ear for the new, then check out this new album released officially today on vinyl in North America and Europe, but has been digitally released on April 23rd 2013."

Album Review: TESSERACT Altered State:
"Altered State is a supreme demonstration of serious musicians putting out serious work. This is definitely not an album to pick up when you just want to rock out around your room in your underwear. If I may continue to throw out more douchey comparisons, Altered State is more like an experience. You can’t just listen to one movement, or even one song; you really just need to hear the whole thing. And I think TesseracT probably feels the same way, since Altered State in its entirety has been posted on YouTube for several days now before the official release. Go check it out if you’re unsure about it; you really have nothing to lose but tons to gain if you end up enjoying it."
KILLSWITCH ENGAGE To Make Donation To Oklahoma Tornado Victims:

“After almost two years, we are very excited to release our new record, An Eye For An Eye. We've had time to learn about the band and ultimately figure out the direction that we'd like to go musically. I think the record shows a lot of growth and progression as we went outside of our norm to try some different things for a few songs. We couldn't be happier with the way the record turned out and can't wait to share it with all of you.” -Chris Roetter
