Nekooo...the Case, Lang, Viers album was one of the better things to happen in music last year. I would still see The New Pornographers. And especially Destroyer because I love me some Dan Bejar. Yeah Metric and Stars are great. Well, Metric is consistently good, and Stars put out an album better than anything Metric has done with Set Yourself on Fire.

Tegan and Sara are consistently good and write great pop hooks nowadays. Not my favorite band by any means, but I enjoy listening to them.

When it comes to mid-2000s Canadian bands, what about The Weakerthans!? Though they're more late 90's to early 00s I guess.

I definitely like The Weakerthans! Not an all time favorite band, but I like them. And I.

Hate.

Winnipeg.

(I've never actually been to Winnipeg, and they have a hockey team called The Jets again, so...)

Tegan and Sara were my... obsession is a bit strong. Go-to live band? from 2005 to 2013. I think I've seen them live like 117 times. My enthusiasm waned during Heartthrob and never recovered. I started hiking instead.
