Well pretty much everyone Canadian I like to listen to has been listed. But from my younger days, I was really into Forgotten Rebels. Even this conservative guy had a punk streak in him!

I forgot one of my fav's! Shame on me. I love The Tea Party.

I was wondering how long it would take for someone to mention them! Jeff Martin is playing here in Buffalo Friday night, it should be interesting. TPOH tomorrow night in St Kitts, wish I didn't have to work the next day.

Thank you. Can't believe only about 2 people mentioned Matthew Good Band or now just Matthew Good. Canadian writers have never been as good as him and Gord Downie

Sloan, Rheostatics, the Mahones, Matthew Good (re: above).

I used to really like Thrush Hermit, Acid Test, Glueleg and Jale back in the day too.

Though Ray Lyell sold the "The Storm" part of the name or dropped it as I recall (his ex-wife used to be my full-timer at a store I managed in Hamilton in 1997).

And Shuffle Demons!!!!





Now I have "Spadina Bus" and "Get out of my House, Roach" fighting to win the title match to become the song that becomes stuck in my head...

Wow, does everyone on this site love Nickleback?! haha

How about artists like:

Metric
The Stills
Arcade Fire
The Organ
Sarah Mclaughlin
Front Line Assembly
The Hip (of course)
Sloan
... and the list goes on

I am glad a couple people mentioned Matthew Good. Probably one of the best song writers out there lyrically and a person with a great social consciousness. Makes me proud to be Canadian.

3 Doors Down are American, they're from Escatawpa, MS, and neither is Creed, they're from Florida! I think before you start talking about bands that are Canadian, better make sure they are Canadian first rather than just assuming! Sorry if I sound like a jerk, not trying to be, I just know a lot about Canadian music!
