Active from early 90\u2019s to 2006 from Victoria, though occasionally based out of Montreal. Started out closer in sound to members&#8217; previous bands like MBlanket mining more of a melodic raspy-voiced punk vein but turning up the weird more and more over the course of two demos, two full lengths and an EP with a full time saxophonist, unconventional percussion (their drummer used an actual kitchen sink and multiple metal garbage cans of different size as part of his kit at one point) , occasional violin and toy keyboards, and&nbsp; wild onstage theatrics involving masks and wacky costumes added to the mix. At their full powers the band sounded like what would happen if you stuffed The Cramps, Jawbreaker, various members of Captain Beefheart, and a haunted doll into the teleporter machine from Cronenberg\u2019s The Fly. Their first full length, Tutankhamen, was originally supposed to come out on Headhunter Records in 2000, to the point of promo copies going out to campus radio even, but the label went bankrupt right before it was supposed to be released. The final incarnation of the band moved back to more standard loud guitar indie-rock on their posthumous 2nd full length and most widely available release \u201cWelcome, Kings\u201d though that material was written after the passing of founding co-frontperson Emily aka Mousey Connection who died in 2002. Surviving vocalist Dave Wenger and Emily had been on and off romantic partners since before the start of the band, and all who knew him during that time said he never really recovered from her passing. Not long after recording finished on that last album in 2006,Dave passed in a bicycle accident. Despite the tragic story of the band, their music has always sounded so unique and vibrant and weird and dark and sexy and melancholy to me in a way no other band has reproduced, and their live shows were pure chaos in the best way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Third World Planet - &quot;Only Nature Can Control&quot; cassette\" width=\"960\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/OENfKsQTe70?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Third World Planet (Victoria)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With no hyperbole, I can say that two piece Victoria grindcore band Third World Planet are possibly the punkest band I have ever run into in my life.&nbsp; From touring across Canada by hopping freight trains from city to city, to relocating to Switzerland to help take care of a long running anarchist squat and arts center, they lived what they believed in. Originally formed by members of Nanaimo\u2019s Droid and Victoria\u2019s Mexican Power Authority (one of whom also performed solo noise shows under the name HERMIT), this powerful duo mixed warped guitars (like physically warped, as their guitarist had to constantly experiment with new tunings to compensate for the toll taken by multiple cold nights riding in an unheated grain car between shows) and lightning speed drumming to mix grind, crust punk and an emotive hardcore passion in 60 to 90 second bursts. Most of their recordings were released on a mix of cassettes and short-run 7\u201ds released in a variety of countries in the mid-late 1990\u2019s and not well preserved on the internet so for the YouTube playlist I&#8217;ve included a rip I found of a full 16 song demo \u201cOnly Nature Can Control\u201d from 1997, clocking in at just over 20 minutes. Also, their drummer Jason Flower currently runs a great record label and shop called Supreme Echo in Victoria. The label end of things does reissues of notable but hard to find punk and metal from Canada and all over the world and the store sells new and used vinyl with a focus on rare and international music you probably won&#8217;t find anywhere else. Definitely worth checking out if you are in the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"To The Graves\" width=\"960\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/6v0XohNFS88?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Hospital Bed\" width=\"960\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/YJJ8TTiVSwM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Jerk With A Bomb \/ Steve McBean in general (Vancouver)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In my opinion Steve McBean is one of Canada\u2019s finest singer\/songwriters, though maybe doesn&#8217;t get the recognition he deserves from certain circles due to most of his bands up to a certain point were&nbsp; pretty squarely centered in punk and . From Red Tide and Mission Of Christ in the 80\u2019s, to GUS and Ex Dead Teenager in the 90\u2019s, until he and EDT-mate Josh Wells started the stripped-down JWAB with Steve on vocals and guitar and Josh handling drums and backing vocals, while occasionally freeing up one hand to also play keyboard while also drumming and harmonizing. Their sound was balanced between alt country and new wave-ish elements, though by their third album they started having a bassist play with them occasionally, and a full time keyboard player, and big riffs more akin a more mature and musically skilled evolution of some of Steve\u2019s early thrash metal projects, and next thing you know\u2026.Jerk With A Bomb was no more, with the psych-rock juggernaut that is Black Mountain made up at that point of everyone that was in JWAB plus a few extras rising from their ashes. Not to abandon the more stripped down vibes of the previous version of this band, McBean started side project Pink Mountaintops for his more acoustic and new wave-inspired endeavours. Eventually, a big movie soundtrack song placement later (in the third Tobey Maguire Spider-Man movie) and Black Mountain end up touring with Coldplay of all freaking bands. When I saw them in 2008 here in Halifax they had some guy from Wisconsin opening for them who had just recorded an album at his cabin out in the sticks named \u201cbone something\u201d cough cough (it was Bon Iver). That being said, those three albums as Jerk With A Bomb(one of which is only available via their Bandcamp) hold the dearest place in my heart of all of their projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Outta This Place\" width=\"960\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Ka4VH-Tv2SQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Needles\/\/Pins - Miracle (official video)\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/XEtP7nKwqgw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Needles\/\/Pins (Vancouver)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Needles\/\/Pins are the most recent band to make my part of the list. I first saw them when they toured east in mid 20teens for No Funswick Fest with Montreal\u2019s late great Mental Fix, and made sure to catch their stop in Halifax as well as I was so blown away. Formed in 2009 and still active at least recently as the past couple of years including releasing an album in 2021, they have spent most of their existence as a trio though occasionally have had former DBS frontman Jesse Gander join them on second guitar and keyboards to further expand their sound over the past few years. Their music draws from a mix early 80\u2019s melodic punk and power pop like Stiff Little Fingers, The Buzzcocks and The Undertones mixed with the gruff emotion and epic chords of bands like Hot Water Music and Leatherface. They\u2019re the kind of band you could throw on a bill with a bunch of \u201cemo\u201d acts, or more Ramonesy leather jacket punk traditionalist types, and they would have everyone tapping toes and hoisting beverages along with the excellent jams in no time. Their four full length albums are all available via Bandcamp -with the first three albums available on the band\u2019s own page and their most recent self titled album from 2021 via their label Dirt Cult Records\u2019 page, and I would heartily recommend seeking them all out. As well, their drummer is the&nbsp; proprietor of cool Vancouver veggie eatery Budgie\u2019s Burritos on top of helping make excellent music if you are ever in search of food in that city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Stressed Elephant\" width=\"960\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/lSGzfr3UQO4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Wendigo Pt. 1 (Quest For Fire)\" width=\"960\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/J144YKhJ_VA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bison (Vancouver)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bison are a band I can thank my sister for introducing me to. She used to see them play live quite a bit during her time in the trenches of the Vancouver pastry chef game in the mid-late 00\u2019s and thought correctly they\u2019d be right up my alley, though it turns out that I was familiar with one of the guitarists (Dan And) from around the Vancouver Island scene back in the day, primarily his time in The Afterthought in the early 00\u2019s. Formed in 2006, they were sometimes billed as Bison BC in sort of a BUSH X situation while signed to Metal Blade Records until parting ways with the label in 2013 and going independent once again. Crushingly heavy and favouring slower tempos of bands like Black Sabbath, Neurosis and early High On Fire, Bison trample you with massive doom-filled riffs but aren&#8217;t afraid to speed things up on occasion in a stampede of thrashing guitars and pounding drums and then throw in the occasional breakdown nodding towards some of the members&#8217; roots in the hardcore scene . I&#8217;m sorry for that pun in the last sentence. It was right there. Anyways these guys are HEAVY but a smart heavy if you know what I mean.Their four full lengths are worth seeking out if you like your music heavy, and while the band is not as active as they may have been a few years ago but they recently headlined a celebration of 40 years of the movie FIRST BLOOD in Hope BC, where 80\u2019s action classic was filmed in late 2022 and seem to still play shows here and there so check them out if you get the chance!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Honourable Mentions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Of some other great BC bands over the years and some footnotes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Manner Farm-Dull Like a Foam Sledgehammer\" width=\"960\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mOsDNLL4jNk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer;

Lanegan said in a late 90\u2019s (?) interview that Van was \u201cthe soul\u201d of the Trees. What\u2019s interesting to me has been how the Screaming Trees Fan Club FB group has been a site of public grieving by Van\u2019s brother and Trees guitarist Gary Lee Conner\u2026 as well as other members of Van\u2019s family\u2026 and fans from around the globe\u2026 and the sincere, organic way this seems to be happening\u2026 this is a band that has lost its singer and now its bassist within one year\u2026 both in their mid-fifties\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Northcote (Victoria)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Northcote - Hope Is Made Of Steel (Track Stream)\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/JeOQhGkf0IY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Anything can be realized&#8230; but I&#8217;m never satisfied&#8230;<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Cant Stay the Same OFFICIAL LYRIC VIDEO\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/AUrFX5_akxM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Matt&#8217;s newest <em>Wholeheart<\/em> comes out in March&#8230;<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So\u2026 every time I open iTunes on my Android phone\u2026 which is about maybe 40% of my music consumption\u2026 it\u2019s been to Northcote\u2019s fantastic record Hope is Made of Steel (2015).

Every fucking person from a small town in Canada can relate to this record, whether relating with it or against it\u2026 it is a punk record, after all. It\u2019s Born in the USA for people my age and of my general demographic cohort. And of all of his four or five awesome records, this is to my mind the one that feels the most like a band release as opposed to the singer-songwriter thing\u2026 and the singer-songwriter thing is great! Just different.

It sounds to me like how Leatherface = H\u00fcsker D\u00fc plus Mot\u00f6rhead\u2026 with Oldage landing squarely on the Mot\u00f6rhead side of the equation\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I will confess that this band could just be on coffee\u2026 <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/oldagevan.bandcamp.com\/album\/we-honour-rust\" target=\"_blank\">check the cover art on Bandcamp<\/a>\u2026 but something tells me it runs a bit darker than that\u2026 Vancouver being home to uh\u2026 third-world living conditions\u2026 like a fucking bomb went off\u2026 for stretches of the Downtown East side\u2026*<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">*Says the middle-aged dad who blithely went record shopping and took his kids to nearly the front-row at a couple of Canucks games #truestory<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is no other recorded output from this band that I can find besides this one album\u2026 and there isn\u2019t a whole lot otherwise online\u2026 like many bar rock bands, I expect they just got preoccupied with life and with other projects\u2026 but who knows?
