Fucked Up?

I LOVE this band.
This band is gold. Their music is loud, melodic and sweet.
It's perfect for a walk in -0 degrees. It makes you walk a little faster.
You walk with a little hop in your step, or maybe two.

They won this years' Polaris Music Prize of $20, 000. This goes to the Canadian band with the highest artistic merit. Fucked Up deserved this and I couldn't be happier.
I was so excited for them. I rememeber listenng to the live broadcast on CBC Radio 3.
They were up against Metric, Great Lake Swimmers and Malajube.

CBC Radio 3 - Achieving Great Heights

They've done it again!

#226 - Sleeper Hits – The Sleepy Time Podcast

One of my new favourites. Funny, mellow and completely Canadian.
Lulls me to sleep on a perfectly spent Friday.
My feet hurt and thighs ache. The soles of my feet arched and flexed.
This podcast is perfect for when after you've spent the majority of your day on your feet.

Sleep Tight. Dream Love. Think Nothing.
