April 19, 2023 Trev

The old adage goes that when one door closes, another opens. That is exactly the case of what happened with Hillsburn and its delegation of tasks when their primary songwriter Paul Aarantzen opted to step amicably away from being a primary member of the band. With the release of their latest record Stories, you can… Read More

Midweek Mixdown // The Morning After Edition….

November 4, 2020 Trev

Welcome back to the latest installment of the Midweek Mixdown, and here's hoping that we have hit rock bottom of 2020, and now hopefully can begin the rebound with a more balanced Captain leading the ship that is the US of A. It's been a dreadfully long 2020 already, and this political rhetoric is downright… Read More

Trev’s Best Albums of 2018

January 1, 2019 Trev

It's hard to believe that we've just wrapped another trek around the sun. 2018 has come and gone, and for the most part, I think we can collectively agree that we're better off having that year in our rear view. There was some great music, some good music and some music that is certainly fit… Read More

Mitch’s Favourite Albums – 2018 Edition

December 12, 2018 Mitch

The button hasn't been pushed yet, North America is only pretty much (but not completely) at war, and everyone only communicates in memes. So yeah, it's 2018 and it is coming to an end (the year I mean). The plus side is, things aren't all bad! I'm living back in Cape Breton, I have 2… Read More

May 21, 2018 Trev

Jessie Reyez - "Body Count" While Donald Glover's alter-ego may have dropped one of the most controversial and important music videos in over a decade in "This is America", no one should be sleeping on Toronto's Jessie Reyez. She has been making alternative pop music for a bit now, and with her recent win for… Read More

March 18, 2018 Jeff

At the end of the day, no matter what you might think, Taylor Swift is arguably the most well known pop artist in the world. Whether it's her captivating live performances or the small pieces of snark that cut through her lyrics, there is no question that Swift has built her persona into bonafide superstar,… Read More

Happy International Women’s Day

March 8, 2018 Jeff

I hate that we have to have a day to celebrate women, but it's not because of the celebration, it's more that we should just celebrate half of the population on a daily basis! Women are incredible. They make this world go around. They also create kick ass music and we at Hafilax love kick… Read More

FNS // It’s February, and we’re still here!

February 3, 2018 Trev

Can we all agree that we just endured what seemed to be the longest January on record? I don't know what it was, but it certainly felt like the ghosts of 2016 and 2017 united to attempt one final swipe at us before they fucked off into the ether. To boot, we had a Super… Read More
