Land Of Talk!

[Prometheon]

Amazing Canadian band. I don't really know what to compare them to, so here's a few different tracks from this fantastic band. I think they may have cracked my top 5, as they have some odd sort of indescribable quality that I just really really enjoy. Maybe you will too.

 

Their most slow/chillout track, with an AWESOME video. It's OK:

 

 

Something gritty, almost grunge-esque. Speak to Me Bones:

 

 

"I know how to kill but I hate how it feels..." Got a Call:

 

 

One more. A standard rock track. Some Are Lakes:

I'm glad some people are digging this band. They really are wonderful.

Seeing these guys at Lee's Palace in Toronto on Thursday. Fellow Bored Torontonians should come.

Cool, thanks for sharing, Owen!

Isn't Elizabeth Powell also part of the Broken Social Scene? yeah some are lakes is such a great album.

I don't think she's "part" of them, but Land of Talk toured with them and I think Lizzie performed with them a few times. Though I guess the whole point of BSS is that it's just a giant mashup of awesome Canadian (well, mostly Torontonian) indie bands, so yeah, I see your point haha. I'm sure they all know each other and stuff.

 

Edit: Also, if anyone is curious, they rocked HARD live. Probably in my top 5 shows ever. They played everything a LOT harder and grungier. It was fucking wicked.
