The hot ticket at POP Montreal this year was undoubtedly Saturday night's triple bill at Club Soda. A sold-out crowd gathered on the corner of Saint-Laurent and Ste-Catherine street, amongst the hookers and hustlers, ready to show their love for the garage psych powerhouse, Ty Segall and his band.

Stagnant Pools Live @ CJLO

September 18 2014 // Sessions

Stagnant Pools dropping by The Oven in the summer of 2014 in a was a pleasant surprise. This pair of brothers (Bryan and Douglass Enas) brought their brooding and powerful noise pop from the midwest to Montreal in support of their latest album Geist. Combining downtrodden vocals with soaringly fuzzy guitars and a simple two barrel configuration, their music will move you to nod your head in approval as much as you hang it in shame.

Mutank: September 14th on Grade A Explosives

September 12 2014 // CJLO

Not many small bands get to go play at the Wacken Open Air festival, but this Sunday on Grade A Explosives Andrew will be talking to Mutank, who won the Wacken Canada Battle of the Bands and had the distinct honour of representing Canada at the festival in Germany. Tune in to CJLO on September 14th at 4 PM as Andrew asks the band important questions like how many litres of Pilsner they drank, what bands they really liked that competed, and about their upcoming show with the Dayglo Abortions.
