Canada is a sneaky power nation at this music lark. Would be very surprised if I consider as many contenders for another country in this series (presuming we dont do the US or UK)

Weird that there was that whole Canadian indie rock explosion, and yet so little of it is noteworthy now.

Another vote for:

Neil Young
Leonard Cohen
Destroyer
Caribou
Godspeed You! Black Emperor

Grimes is awful, Peaches is great. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

  1. Do Make Say Think
  2. Neil Young
  3. Arcade Fire (just for Funeral, part of NB and the early shows)

Caribou extremely close to making the cut.

  1. Hey Rosetta!
    2-5. Metric, Our Lady Peace, Alvvays, The Tragically Hip

Gah our bands aren’t very good and I’m not big into our solo artists. Pop punk industry was good but those don’t last as well in terms of sound, not a single Canadian band makes my top 10.
