From Autumn To Ashes - "Take Her To The Music Store"

In late Winter/Early Spring of 2007 I made the move to Toronto. Uprooted my life and moved in with a close friend of mine Jonny HP. We were both at a significant crossroad in our lives. We were glad to have someone to keep company with. Have a few drinks at the end of the day. Most of the time those nights were filled with music. Me sharing songs with him. Him sharing songs with me. I'm sure we did so much more during those days, but it's the nights of listening to music and talking until midnight that stick with me the most. Those songs always bring back memories from those years. This is one of those songs.

Going with a song off one of the new albums I picked up in 2022. The latest from Canada's Alexisonfire, it might not hit as hard as their first 4 records, but it's got some shining moments. Like this track "Sans Soliel"

Ween - "Tried & True"

I've been aware of Ween for a long time, but never truly gave their catalogue a fair deep dive. One thing that always impressed me from the songs I did hear, was how vastly different they all were from each other. I could queue up 10 Ween songs and, if you didn't know any better, you would say they were from 10 different artists. That is the case with their album Quebec, one of their more critically acclaim records. I'm excited to get into this, but here's a sample from the start of my Ween journey!

I Mother Earth - "When Did You Get Back From Mars?"

Been on a mid-90's Canadian alt-rock kick lately. OLP, Moist, Treblecharger, The Hip, Odds, The Watchmen, Holly McNarland. It goes on. You can include I Mother Earth in there but many folks forget about the album after Scenery & Fish when Edwin left the group. They drafted a new singer Brian Byrne who had a unique voice. I respected that, they could've just hired an Edwin clone and probably picked up where they left off. This track is off the great Blue Green Orange.
