There have been a fair number of Canadian bands that have received notice in the States lately: Arcade Fire, New Pornographers, Broken Social Scene, Metric, The Dears, Destroyer...<br /><br />I guess the big difference between Brit-pop and Can-Rock bands is that the accents and the innate devotion to Morrisey make them stand out from our bands.<br /><br />If you're an American and you hear the New Pornos, you could figure that they're from Portland or Seattle or LA or the Bay...there's nothing really that screams out "This band is from elsewhere".<br /><br />Hence the name of the record label: Secretly Canadian. Which is an American label. It's all weird.<br /><br />And it is more of a fluke than anything that we're into the Can-Rock for the past few weeks. For the month of July, it will be strictly bands from Montana.Tao of Stiebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12459135109404905466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2484762138483195409.post-65025802237720379792009-04-24T16:15:00.000-04:002009-04-24T16:15:00.000-04:00"Scenery and Fish" is one of my favourite all-time..."Scenery and Fish" is one of my favourite all-time albums.

I see Brit bands make it big in the States all the time, but you can count the Can-Rock bands that hit here on one hand.<br /><br />Don't get me wrong, I love Rush, and The Guess Who (what's left of them) came to my town last year and put on an amazing show...but I couldn't tell you what the hell a Gandharvas is.<br /><br />Not knocking Canadian music, just saying it's odd that Brit music can penetrate the States from across an ocean, and Canadian music lives in relative obscurity right next door. <br /><br />Maybe you guys feel the same way toward some of our less popular bands?
