Eels: Wonderful, Glorious Album Review

February 7,2013

It’s hard to believe that this is the tenth album to come from the band Eels, and what’s even more surprising is that after all of this time indie-rock pariah Mark Everett still has it. Wonderful, Glorious was recorded in Everett’s home a little differently than the last albums. Not ...

Relae

January 21,2013

The Spot Frustrated with the fluffy sideshow of the Michelin star dining experience at NOMA, Sicilian-born Chef Christian Puglisi and waitress Kim Rossen left the white tablecloths and overpriced silverware behind in 2009 to open a new restaurant on Copenhagen’s rapidly gentrifying Nørrebro Street. Their baby, Restaurant Relæ, serves as the ...

Philemon

January 11,2013

The Spot As the character of Montréal’s Old Port changes and becomes more residential, new necessities become apparent. With the influx of young creative professionals choosing not only to work but to live, play, and love down in the Old Port, there was a need for a neighbourhood bar. Philemon is ...

Christopher Owens: Lysandre Album Review

January 11,2013

Ironically, the album I was listening to before switching over to Christopher Owens solo album debut, Lysandre, was a Stephen Malkmus & the Jicks record. I feel as if Owens and Malkmus have a lot in common in the sense that they have an immediately identifiable aura and sound about ...

Listen Up! Find the right headphone for your dome.

January 2,2013

When apple first introduced the iPod, it was as if the iconic little white earbuds took the place of all other forms of headphones in weeks. Your trip to work was suddenly a scene out of an Orwell Novel. Around you all signs of originality, not to mention solid construction ...

Solange: True Album Review

December 18,2012

True, the latest creative venture from Solange Knowles, finds the artist coming into her own. After experimenting with neo-soul sounds on her last major label effort, "Sol-Angel And The Hadley St. Dreams", Solange has opted for a cross-over of indie and pop. A tricky tightrope to walk but one ...

A-Trak: Tuna Melt Album Review

December 18,2012

All of my cool electronica knowledge can be traced back to my little brother sending me SebastiAn’s 12” Smoking Kills in 2005. Pretty soon that turned into a content fixation with all things Ed Banger. But not all obsessions end in monogamy. Upon the release of Barbra Streisand in 2010, ...

Le Comptoir Charcuteries et Vins

December 13,2012

The Spot: Bringing a casual setting and price point to the Montreal French bistro dining experience, Le Comptoir Charcuteries et Vins offers up astonishingly inventive meals and lively atmosphere late into the evening in its open kitchen space on the corner of St-Laurent and Villeneuve. Drawing inspiration from the Italian enoteca, ...

Kendrick Lamar: Good Kid, m.A.A.d City is the best album of the year

November 28,2012

The term saving the best for last doesn’t even encapsulate how epic Kendrick Lamar’s late in the year album good kid, m.A.A.d city is. We knew it was going to be incredible - Kendrick’s online following and ever growing list of musicians talking about collaborating with him has been hyping ...

Rihanna: Unapologetic Album Review

November 26,2012

So we've reached the seventh and latest installment of the tightly run, well oiled machine known as Robin 'Rihanna' Fenty. On 'Unapologetic', Rihanna serves what is seemingly one giant middle finger to her non-believers that she is in fact an 'artist' and will continue to do and say things with ...
