Jah’mila – “Chant their Names”

June 12, 2020 Trev

Jah'Mila just dropped the single "Chant their Names", which is an important and necessary cry for change to a system that has long been failing the black community. In recent years, we've heard the names Trayvon Martin, Eric Garner, Breonna Taylor, Freddie Gray, Ahmaud Arbery, and Philando Castile (to name only a few), and watched… Read More

Album Review // Backxwash – God Has Nothing To Do With This, Leave Him Out Of It

June 1, 2020 Trev

It’s funny how the universe works. On the night of Oct 24th, I had a little extra time on my hands prior to catching one of the late shows, during HPX. Over at the Carleton, there was a rap show featuring Backxwash happening and I didn’t quite know what to expect, aside from listening to… Read More

Single Track // KennyHoopla – how will i rest in peace if i’m buried by a highway?

May 26, 2020 Trev

I don't remember when I first heard this on either Indie88 or AltNation, but I do remember thinking that Bloc Party had returned with a new track. Instead it was this chap KennyHoopla who had put out one of those songs that immediately grabbed me and demanded my attention, very much like Black Pumas did when they… Read More

Monday Afternoon Mixdown – Long Overdue Edition….

May 25, 2020 Trev

It's funny what happens when you throw a pandemic at people: some people flourish, some people flounder, while others just flutter about. For me personally, it has been a period of adjustment, as I by nature am something of an introvert. You'd never know it when I'm with my people, but with new folks I… Read More

“Weird Al” Yankovic – The Ultimate Bracket Round 2

May 12, 2020 Mitch

After a very quick week, the field has been cut in half. We've seen some predictable winners, with the likes of Amish Paradise absolutely obliterating Waffle King. We've seen some devastating upsets such as the 15 seed (and unranked, had it not been for a case made by Grant) pounding 2 seed Albuquerque into oblivion.… Read More

“Weird Al” Yankovic: The Ultimate Bracket

April 29, 2020 Mitch

If you were to ask just about anyone who has listened to music in the last 30+ years if they knew the name "Weird Al", you would be awfully hard pressed to find someone who was oblivious to the king of comedy music. He has parodied some of the greatest songs ever created, as well… Read More

Podcast Episode 46 – Trevor Murphy

March 31, 2020 Jeff

Back in late November we had the chance to sit down with local music aficionado Trevor Murphy, to discuss the ending of his weekly radio program, Halifax Is Burning. We also chatted about the local music scene, Acadian roots in Nova Scotia, and the upcoming release from his group Quiet Parade. The original air date… Read More

Electric Spoonful Are Back: ‘Chain Gang’ Release, Upcoming Album + Era

March 31, 2020 Teri Boates

It's been four years since Electric Spoonful won ‘Best Rock Band’ in The Coast’s ‘Best of’ Awards, and three years since they released their last single, 'Stare at the Moon'. The four-piece rough and rowdy band of boys were excited to share more of their songs to the world. The single came with a promise:… Read More

Podcast Episode 45 – Designosaur

March 10, 2020 Jeff

In this week's episode, we sat down with the members of Designosaur to chat about their upcoming tour and joint cassette release. We also jumped into some of the members' other bands, Vulpine and Outtacontroller. Designosaur hit the road for a quick tour around the Maritimes starting March 13th in Saint John, NB, and close… Read More

Show Shots & Thoughts // Matthew Good @ The Marquee Ballroom w/ Villages // 03.06.20

March 9, 2020 Trev

When Matthew Good shared the news of his father’s passing, he was quick to cite the sense of duty and professionalism instilled in him by his father, explaining that his burgeoning Moving Walls tour (which started only 2 days prior) would continue on. Not many would have faulted Matt had he opted to postpone these… Read More
