The Residents @ Club Soda

February 22 2010 // Magazine // Concert Reviews

Who are the Residents? Except for those close to band, no one really knows. To be honest, I’m not sure I ever want to find out.

Since 1969, the Residents have been performing their unique brand of avant-garde (a fancy term for weird-ass) music and visual art. All the while, the members of the band have been concealed by costumes and masks. The most famous of these costumes being giant eyeball heads, top hats and tuxedos.

Point/Counterpoint: Black Sabbath

February 16 2010 // Magazine // Features

Manley and Hastie go at it hard about a subject that keeps them up at night: Is Black Sabbath awesome, or merely pansies? The question is posed.

Point: Alexander Manley

I got into a bunch of hot water with Hastie a week or so ago. He was extolling the virtues of Black Sabbath (much as he extolled the virtues of DMX yesterday) and I was having none of it. He was all "Sabbath bla bla bla" and "Ozzy bla bla bla" and I was like "Nuh-uhh."

Mixtape Review: T.O. Vs. MTL

February 10 2010 // Magazine // Music Reviews

Throughout history there have been major rivalries. From Cain and Abel (which didn’t end so well) to LeBron and Kobe, you can’t deny how powerful some rivalries can be. The Great Canadian Rivalry in-between Montreal and Toronto is as old as the country itself and will never die (just read a history book, people). Recently a mixtape was released by TopLeft Recordings & Morburn Music that will only add fuel to the flame. 

The question is asked: which city has the better Rapper?
