In Charlie PS’s single, “Slow Burn,” the Vancouver-based, England-born rock artist isn’t mincing words about the modern music industry.

The creativity inherent to music is what ignites the magic we feel when that bassline hits. It’s not a formula, it’s not linear, and it doesn’t require metrics for meaning - it’s a journey into humanity that makes you want to move. This is core to the concept of “Slow Burn,” a cathartic roar from Charlie PS as she unleashes her frustrations onto the track.

“Too many side eye glances I’ll never learn
Too much of a good thing, point of no return
Too many times that I wanna sit and watch it burn,
You better notice, you better know…”

Over instrumentation from Steven Roe on lead guitar, Lachlan Tocher on bass, and Brennan Buglioni on drums, Charlie PS rocks out with plenty of raw emotion.

Kismet is a beautiful word that describes fate, which sometimes has an odd way of bringing people together.

 Opening with catchy riffs from guitarist and lead singer Adam Gomori, the song has a garage rock vibe to it. As Gomori sings the first verse, his voice is backed by percussion from Tim Bacon & driving bass from Rob Frasca that punctuates the lyrics.

"There was a time I was not a part of you
Meandering vines together our branches grew
Drawing our lines, I hope they aren't parallel
Drawing our lines, where they lead I couldn't tell"

The forward march of time doesn’t always mean progress, and for that reason Vancouver-based roots band Rusty Creek looks back on the past with nostalgia in their new single “Lookin’ For Blue Skies” – Check it out on YouTube here:

Replete with banjo, fiddle, and a zany marching rhythm, “Lookin’ For Blue Skies” is accompanied by a music video full of people and animals having wholesome fun – swimming in pools and creeks, participating in parades, dancing, frolicking on the beach. While the song shimmies with the sound of sunny positivity, the lyrics contain a bit more of an ache:

In the old days, everybody had a house
And that house became a home
Yeah, in the old days, y’all had a home
And every dog had its bone

Nameless Friends pull no punches. The rock band from London, Ontario, leaves no altar un-scorched with their latest single “Demons”, a scathing critique of right-wing, religious discrimination toward 2SLGBTQIA+ people. Check it out on YouTube here:

The closest thing the band’s debut album - Blasphemy - has to a title track, “Demons” is relentless in its assessment of queerphobic ‘Christianity’. It’s a six-minute, gospel prog epic satirizing gaslighting and toxic positivity in organized religion, that devolves into a wicked organ solo halfway through (think Deep Purple meets Dream Theatre meets Boston).

Vancouver, BC-based singer-songwriter Myk Gordon is prepping hard for an exciting release as he gears up to drop his brand-new Americana roots-rock single, "Born To Be," out now.

My Own Addiction’s new single “Take You Out” packs such a punch it made the band’s own drummer fear for whoever vocalist Alexandra Augustine had based the lyrics on.

Check it out on YouTube here:

“I laughed, the song itself sounds like a revenge song I suppose, but it’s really about taking your own power back,” she says.

And it helps do just that. The mainstream rock band based out of Oshawa in Canada burst onto the scene for their guitar-driven, high energy-sound and “Take You Out” is no different. It opens with a heavy guitar riff, followed by the drums before Alexandra rips into the lyrics with “Hey you!”.

“My mind’s a mess but my heart is wise,” a line from Kyle Haze’s newest single “My Shadows,” captures how most of the world felt during the COVID pandemic lockdown. 

But it was during these slow days and long nights confined within the walls of his Toronto apartment that the emerging guitarist and songwriter was able to channel those emotions into the song available now.

The Canadian musician says the song is about introspection and explores themes of post heartbreak denial, solitude and melancholia. 

“My Shadows is a glimpse into a personal journey, an exploration of emotions during a time of solitude and reflection; feelings that should resonate with anyone who’s experienced the complex facets of love and loss amidst the unique circumstances of a pandemic lockdown,” Haze says.
