I made a mix tape

And KharBevNor, I dont listen to metal, death metal, math rock or whateverhaveyou. Sorry if you dont like my taste in music, but please accept that not everyone likes your music either.

You said you had created a list, presumably an ultimate one, of first Canadian bands, then Canadian indie bands, indie having no widely accepted concrete definition other than that it is bands on independent labels: therefore one would assume that entrants upon this list would be judged on a variety of unarguable factors: technical proficiency, widespread critical acclaim, originality and musical influence for example. Strapping Young Lad in particular have won widespread critical acclaim, and singer Devin Townsend has gone on, with his solo projects and collaborations to become a widely respected member of both the metal and prog rock communities, collaborating with award winning artists and fronting his own independent music label, being acclaimed by some as Canada's answer to Mike Patton. In a list that showed the international influence and musical diversity of the nation of Canada, one would think that he or one of his projects might deserve a look-in.
However, actually, this is a list of relatively tame similiar sounding indie rock/pop groups you like that happen to be from Canada. Please at least change the title again to indicate the narrow pseudo-mainstream musical avenue you are pursuing, if not the inherent personal bias.

jeez, Khar. it seems like you've been growing increasingly bitter of late, cumulating in the above verbal lashing that was probably not needed. you know what'll make you feel better?
ORANGE MOCHA FRAPPACHINO!!!
come on. we can do breathing exercises on the way.
KharBevNor:
:( I was being crushing and witty! Crushing and witty!
And don't get me started on Frappacino. DEATH TO FALSE COFFEE *swigs nuclear strength black coffee*
Benn London:
Your mixtape is my utopia.
Such grand tastes, I cannot single out one artist I wouldn't want there.
