Tea party Big Wreck Mathew Good Band The Waking Eyes are awesome from what I've heard Tragically Hip, I guess this would be the national pride of Canada, not a huge fan myself though 3 Days Grace isn't bad Title: Re: Good Canadian rock bands....

Moist Finger Eleven The Headstones Treble Charger (pre American Psycho) Our Lady Peace Limblifter Age Of Electric Econoline Crush The Guess Who 54-40 Sloan Sam Roberts Big Wreck and they've already been mentioned but: The Tragically Hip Matthew Good (Band) Rush The Tea Party There's a handful of others, but I guess you wouldn't be familiar with them unless you're FROM Canada.? Which is a shame, because I would place most of these bands above a ton of known American bands. If you want a taste of Canadian rock, listen to The Hip, Matt Good, Sloan, or I Mother Earth (preferably with Edwin singing). Edit - BTW, I'm not sure if he can be considered "rock", but anyone with any sense should immediately download "Striptease" by Hawksley Workman. He writes all the lyrics and does all the instrumentation on his albums, and I believe he produces them as well. If he keeps it up, 10 years down the line I'll gladly start a thread to argue with D about who's more talented, Hawksley or Prince. Title: Re: Good Canadian rock bands.... Can anyone name one?

The Guess Who Rush Bryan Adams April Wine The Tragically Hip Nickelback Barenaked Ladies Our Lady Peace If the criteria is "good," Rush and Nickelback should be eliminated from this list. They're not even bad. They're worse than bad. Title: Re: Good Canadian rock bands.... Can anyone name one? Post by: Malcolm on March 02, 2005, 06:09:23 PM You gotta be kidding me?..Rush is one of the only 3 man bands that actually play live with only 3 members..Nirvana never did..Three Days Grace dosent..and Nickelback created there own sound which means a long career..and Chad is very talented

There are many capable musicans out there who don't make good music. Quote Nirvana never did. Nirvana always sucked. Quote Three Days Grace dosent... Never heard them. Quote and Nickelback created there own sound which means a long career.. Huh?? Nickelback has always sounded like Puddle of Mudd, and both of 'em have always sounded like wannabe-Nirvana's.? And, as mentioned above, Nirvana sucks.? Hence, Nickelback sucks. You do the math.? Quote and Chad is very talented Never heard them either. Title: Re: Good Canadian rock bands....

He meant Chad Kroeger, the very untalented lead singer of Nickelback. Yeah, Nickelback may have created their own sound, it's a single sound and they use it on every song. There's a website out there, which I don't have the link for at the moment that plays two Nickelback songs together, one in the left speaker, one in the right...They sound exactly the same. Nickelback sucks. Title: Re: Good Canadian rock bands.... Can anyone name one? Post by: Rob on March 08, 2005, 05:08:04 PM Of all the bands mentioned the only one that's any good is Rush. However, Canada has produced one of the greatest frontmen of our time. The iatola of rock n' rolla, Chris Jericho! Fozzy are huge rock stars.

Well nice to see you prefer Jericho over Stratus... but anyhow back on topic..... you are so wrong about Canadian music. Yes there is a bunch of crap just like anywhere else but there are a lot of acts that deserve credit. Title: Re: Good Canadian rock bands.... Can anyone name one?

Post by: Mama Kin on March 10, 2005, 02:41:45 AM Yeah, Jericho, or Moongoose McQueen would be a more imposing front man without the fucking June Cleaver haircut. That's the most unrocking haircut ever....
Anyway Fozzy Are HUGE Rock Stars.... :peace: |
