Has anyone heard of this Canadian Rock/punk quartet? They are simply amazing. MY friend introduced them to me. Their music is simply rocking. They get my blood goin and me rockin out. They also have amazing deep lyrics but they are caught up in a catchy beat and rocking music so you don't hear their message. Take this song River Below. It really rocks in the terms of the music. But the Lyrics when inspected are talking about blowing up a building.

River Below

Rejected...since day one
My name is...bastard son
I've been damned...so many times I've lost count!
Blue collar...working man
Devises...masterplan
Bi-polar...with a mental side arm

I'm sick and I'm twisted, I'm broken you can't fix it, don't make me
cause I'll do it, red button and we'll all go...

Into the river below...running from the inferno...
You'll think I'm insane but you'll all know my name!
Into the river below...running from the inferno...
I'll take all the blame, the front page and the fame!

Contraption...made up of
Nuts and bolts...creates the
New monster...to burn your family tree down!
Tick-tocking...times up now
Split second...the world frowns
Lonely heart...never had nobody!


I'm sick and I'm twisted, I'm broken you can't fix it, don't make me
cause I'll do it, red button and we'll all go...

Into the river below...running from the inferno...
You'll think I'm insane but you'll all know my name!
Into the river below...running from the inferno...
I'll take all the blame, the front page and the fame

Check them out! They are amazing.
