Wrong, music was best specifically when I was 14-21 years old. (My reference point for new music is like 3-5 major pop artists)

every generation thinks their music is the best. i could make a case for the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, 2000s and convince you on each of them. music has always been good, always will be

Right on reds are the most dangerous thing for pedestrians and drivers. They should all be made illegal.

Pedestrians should have one moment in the light cycle for people to cross in any direction with no cars in the intersection (a scramble intersection). It works like a dream in Quebec City.

Like you used to have to book one show in Toronto at least to be able to call it a North American tour

Maybe I’m being overly sensitive but I don’t like how many bands have been sharing “North American tour” posters with a list of cities that are all in the U.S., especially during a year when Trump has repeatedly threatened Canadian sovereignty

This was a lot of fun. Listen to Matt and me on this great podcast!! 🎙️

I just wrapped a fab chat about great 2000s music from this fine country. @adamfeibel.com and @bobkin.bsky.social wrote In Too Deep: When Canadian Punks Took Over the World and we just spent 90 minutes getting into it!

There are a thousand half-empty parking garages like this one in Toronto but people will still say this because there isn’t free street parking directly in front of the specific store they want to visit

A major 1980s nostalgia concert, Canadian pop punk and an imploding submersible: what we’re obsessed with this week Simple Minds live, “In Too Deep,” “Implosion: The Titanic Sub Disaster” and the new Big Thief song are among our culture picks.

Sam Sutherland’s 2012 book “Perfect Youth: The Birth of Canadian Punk” traced the rise of such genre pioneers as D.O.A. and Teenage Head and placed them in a broader cultural context. With “In Too Deep” (House of Anansi), authors Matt Bobkin and Adam Feibel grab the baton to showcase the next generation. Subtitled “When Canadian Punks Took Over the World,” the book offers well-told origin stories of Sum 41, Avril Lavigne, Simple Plan, Billy Talent and others, while not neglecting the contributions of lesser known, but still significant bands like Boys Night Out and Moneen. —David McPherson

So cool I could make that introduction! It’s been wild to see how far they’ve come from a small town down the road from me over these last few years. The new record is really great

my May in music: seven new releases, some low-key singer-songwriter stuff, old punk faves, and a Ceremony album that goes straight to the top mostly because each song is like 20 seconds long
