Video of the Day | In A Day - Pale Dian

The resurgence of dream pop over the last several years can perhaps be traced to the political homelessness and Gen X ennui hangover that people under 30 regularly battle with. Dream pop, much like the new romantic new wave it grew out of, marries beauty to grit, fulfilling a hole in the depressed and rudderless. For those who were not around the first time dream pop had popularity, bands like Austin's Pale Dian stand on the hunched shoulders of holographic giants of new wave's shadowy younger brother.

Review | Andy Ferro - Muirhead

There is an odd intimacy that comes from strumming the guitar with a certain rhythm. It's reminiscent of parties around bonfires or in basements, quiet and vulnerable. On Muirhead, Andy Ferro slyly mixes this sort of intimacy with haunting instruments and sounds. The result is a collection of songs that are reminiscent of the indie rock of the early 90's, sad-yet-jangly, but with an added emotional edge. "Sugar and Milk" is probably the most radio-ready cut, but "Hood" and "Useless Powder" are standout tracks as well.

Video of the Day | 3 Doors Down - In The Dark

I know absolutely nothing about 3 Doors Down, but I've been vaguely aware of their existence for about 18 years. They're like a kid you go to high school with, and only after graduating realize you never knew their name. Unflapped by their crushing mediocrity, 3 Doors Down have pressed on and apparently released a new music video. The video impressively features an actor from the acclaimed cable series Breaking Bad. That actor, unimpressively, is RJ Mitte, aka, Walt Jr. (No offence to RJ, but make better choices if you don't want to be the butt of jokes, lad).

#tbt Video | Da Gryptions - The Bixi Anthem

Overheard someone asking when the Bixis will be back in Montreal. (Answer: generally, April 15th.) Of course, for many, including yours truly, it's impossible to talk about Bixis without immediately getting Da Gryptions' 2010 gem "The Bixi Anthem" stuck in your head. If you've never heard it before, YOU'RE WELCOME! Happy #tbt!

Video of the Day | IRIS - Follow Me

The premiere of singer/songwriter IRIS's video for "Follow Me" was released earlier today by The Wild magazine, where the Spanish born Montrealer reveals that it's her tribute to the late David Bowie, specifically for his iconic lead role in Jim Henson's cult classic The Labyrinth, her all-time favourite film. We're digging the video's eerie and surreal aesthetic. Follow her on Facebook or Instagram.
