That's right, this month's theme week is Canada Rocks. The idea first hit me when I realized that I have only reviewed two albums by Canadian artists. One was Sheavy's Republic and that may have been late last year. The other review was Exit stage left by Rush which I did for Live album week. For this week I have planned reviews of the following:
Rush-2112
Triumph-Thunder Seven
Exciter-Long live the loud
Annihilator-Never, neverland
Plus I thought about what is the difference between the hard rock/ metal scenes in the U.S. and Canada? Well, I have never been to Canada so I have no clue. However I do read a few blogs by some metal fans who live in Canada so I e-mailed them and two of them actually responded. So I will a post about the differences between the metal scenes in the two countries and it will include parts of the responses I got from two great Canadian music bloggers. Hope you enjoy the week and it will kick off tomorrow.
Awesome. I can't wait, eh?
ReplyDeleteSweet - interested to see what the Canuks have to say. I LOVE CANADA, Canadians and the music it's produced.
ReplyDeleteRush is one of my favorite bands and I also love Triumph.
Some great non-metal bands too, BTO, The Guess Who, Neil Young, Robbie Robertson...etc.
(I'm proud to say that my father was from Canada)
EL TEL said British heavy Metal at the moment is white hot
