Comment: this
is the second compendium of classic Canadian songs (two other ones
would be added) covered by contemporary Canadian artists within the
series of music compilations where contemporary Canadian artists are
asked to cover their favourite Canadian song before the year of 2006,
the year Quick Before It Melts as a platform and music marketing blog
was launched. The scope of indie music is wide over there because
there are up 21 compositions in total. Indeed, the concept seems to
be intriguing. There are up gentle sugary ballads and cheerful pop
rock incantations and indie folk numbers to enchanting shoegaze-y
incantations to transcend an original ditty onto a disparate
territory and elegant fuzz pop/rock driven and feedback intoxicated
punk rock freakouts to overtly poppy electronic interpretations.
There are up such artists as Hollowphonic, The Holy Gasp, VIRE,
Evening Hymns, KASHKA, No Museums, Camp David, Matt LeGroulx, Whale
Eye, TV Sets, Crossley Hunter, Valery Gore, Alex Bent+The Emptiness,
Venus Sans Fur, Las Venus Skyway, Nick Faye & The Deputies,
Blackpaw Society, Stonetrotter, WHOOP-Szo, Jonathan Pearce, and
Champion Lover. Of course, given that a cover song could be evaluated
one should know about the original song either. To evaluate for is
the cover version just a faint take-off or could the artist add some
new and singular influxes to the mix. However, the whole impression
is above the average for sure. Very pro. Listen to the rest (three)
miscellanies additionally.
