Back in my day, the word “discourse” used to have meaning. Now, discourse means arguing about whether “Home” by Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros is the worst song ever or who actually invented that stomp-clap-hey stream of folk-pop in the late aughts that still manages to haunt us. You know what’s worth talking about? Songs that aren’t the worst ever! There are plenty of those to be found on this week’s roundup of the best new Canadian music.
Edmonton R&B riser Avenoir leads off his upcoming debut album with promising new single “Alone,” while Mariel Buckley ushers in her alt-rock era on “Swim Practice.” The hype for Rochelle Jordan‘s Through the Wall continues to reach new heights with the latest pre-release single “Doing It Too,” while fellow Torontonians Heartrunner prove themselves to be a band to watch with their punk-edged indie stylings.
This week in album releases, we have the latest full-lengths from No Joy (Bugland), Ada Lea (when i paint my masterpiece) and more. Elsewhere, Evan Redsky performs a rootsy vibe check, while Cameron Whitcomb grapples with recovery on the soulful “Fragile.”
Find yourself right at home with The Eh! List below, presented by Mary Brown’s Chicken — all Canadian and proud of it!
