Montréal's 10th annual ComicCon ended on Sunday after a three-day celebration of geek culture. This being my first Comic-Con, I wasn't really sure of what to expect, but I was still pleasantly surprised. I attended a variety of events, but I'm going to talk about the two I enjoyed the most: BattleCOM and the DreakHacks Gaming Zone.

It's that time of year again, when the Fantasia International Film Festival returns to haunt the halls of the downtown Concordia campus, and CJLO DJs spin live between films in the Hall theatre every day of the festival! Keep your ears peeled for Angelica from BVST, Andrew from Grade A Explosives, DJ Crushcast (Allison) from Femme AM, DJ Viger, a.k.a. Alex from Ashes To Ashes, Emeline from Nozin' Around, Alexandre from Transmission, and Lawrell from Fukubukuro, your 2018 CJLO Fantasia DJ lineup!

I first heard about Denmark’s Iceage in an Iggy Pop interview with Australia’s Triple J in 2013. They had just released their critically acclaimed sophomore album You’re Nothing, and Iggy was praising them on their ability to “express negative energy.” This led me to downloading the album immediately, and I’ve been a fan since. With Plowing Into the Field of Love, their 2014 album, they displayed their growth in both musicality and lyricism. Their latest effort, Beyondless, supports Iggy Pop’s claim. It demonstrates further growth and maturity and proves that Iceage is a band with something to say, and that they are here to stay.
