MAKEOUT VIDEOTAPE

Made up of Vancouver’s Natalie Gitt and/or Alex Calder on the drums and Edmonton ex-pat Mac DeMarco. This band can play garage pop rock like no other. If you missed them on tour with Japandroids and You Say Party We Say Die you don’t want to miss them this time around!

WALTER TV

Spawned from opposing shores.The drummer: a testament to primitive man’s physique. The guitarist: shred heavy teeth opener. The bassist: nothing but brass. The keyboardist: ivory from the mamoths tusk. The low noise comming from the ocean floor.

“One of my favorite posts in recent memory was a band called Walter TV from somewhere, Canada. The latest from them is an EP which was recorded on a 4 track and came to us today in the form of 1 track, yet those humble figures seem to belie the scope of textures and emotions encapsulated in it’s 17 minutes. Drenched in a distinct nighttime atmosphere, it definitely brings to mind the mental image of a few scruffy dudes tucked away in some black country lodge with only the owls to bear witness. The songs shift almost deliriously between contrasting moods of exultation and brooding, between glowing tropical-tinged pop and dark psychedelic Americana, all the while infused with such levels of passion and inventiveness that it’s quite hard not to be taken aback. Altogether, 33 mb well spent.”
-Don’t Die Wondering

VAMPIRES

Alot of things have been said to describe our music. Death-Pop, Shoegazer Growl, 1992 New York Fusion Pop, Pop-Underground, Sweat, Floor Rock, Dada-core, Post-Garage, Oft Fuzzy Dance Riffs, Bellow Boogie, Fun, and “When I hear your tunes I wanna to lick the air!”
Most of all we just like to see people shaking their tailfeathers to our big noisy peacock colors.
