Kaleidoscope Grove

http://www.myspace.com/kaleidoscopegrove

Vancouver-based, and pretty much in its beginning stages but I wouldn't be surprised if this guy whipped up a tonne of material in a few months. Check out the Indian Summer cover, is it just me or does he sound a lot like the guy from Beat Happening? I also quite like the track, "Until the Walls Run".

practicality:
Jade Leary.

I don't have much of an idea on how to explain what he has. Um... it's electronic.

Go listen to it.

You Say Party! We Say Die!

Local act from little old Abbotsford, BC. Buddies of mine who have been getting pretty popular lately (debut full-length got 7.1 and a frontpage on pitchfork) and have been touring canada for the last year and a half, and hitting the UK in may! I've seen them go from not too hot (playing my 17th birthday) to holding the sickest dance parties i've ever been to, not to mention (IMO) stealing shows from Pretty Girls Make Graves, Blood Brothers, and some other bands people like that I don't. (well, i like pgmg) so check em out!

soap:

spikey guitars, dancable rhythms, yelling ... "next big thing from the north east" ... pretty good young band from middlesbrough.
on tour soon.

Coonstar:
Oh Jesus You Say Party! We Say Die! is getting huuuge now. Wow, so they're your friends eh? And from Abbortsford, of all places.

I like them, not hot on their album as a whole but dayum they're awesome.
