I'm listening to the "party disc" from One Chord to Another for the first time in years. This is a band that is so criminally ignored everywhere outside of Canada. OK, they put out a couple mediocre albums (Pretty Together and Action Pact) but everything else they've done is amazing, especially Between the Bridges, One Chord to Another, and Twice Removed. I hear the new album is great but do not yet have it.
Anyway, if you don't know who they are, they are a very pop-oriented rock band who, depending on the album, can remind you of shoegazer, the Beatles, AC/DC, the Who, and many others, all done with a true "indie rock" sensibility. Check them out if you don't know about them.
