Devin Townsend is my favorite canuck

DFA 1979

The best Canadian musicians head to the states to make a living because there's no market or demand for quality music up here.

Kinda strange that someone would like Devin Townsend and just laugh off Rush like that

also here's a cover Devin was a part of a long time ago on a Rush tribute album

Great band and great selection.
Other good Canadian punk bands would be
The Viletones
Stretchmarks
Personality Crisis
Pointed Sticks
No Means No
Teenage Head
Panty Christ
The Subhumans (NOT the British band but a band who were not only from the Vancouver/Burnaby area but were also good friends with D.O.A. and some of them eventually ended up being in D.O.A. after The Subhumans Broke up. Their debut album Incorrect Thoughts is a classic!)

That's all I can think of at this moment but I know there's more.

>Oh yeah! Almost forgot! SNFU!

there's more good contemporary canadian musicians than americans. every music scene in a major city is built off fucking, social favoritism, and intellectual dick comparison. they're trying too hard to feign ingenuity when it's not there most of the time

Young Lungs is a damn good sc singer and rapper from Canada. He's got a wide range of talent. Listen to "demons" and then listen to "97 leo"

Broken Social Scene? Come on guys

Arcade Fire

>>72418054

That whiny little cunt is everything wrong with modern rap, fuck off.

>>72418010
People got Rush, Neil Young, etc., but not seeing Alanis Morrisette. Jagged Little Pill is one of the best 90s albums imo.

Everyone mentioned ITT plus:

>Tegan & Sara
>Fucked Up

Canada has plenty of good musicians actually.

>>72419348

Justin Bieber is canadian and he's like the best musician, performer that Canada ever had, along with Neil Young and Avril Lavigne, Canadians are very talented, they only need to come to US to get spotted.

Canada has a lot of great bands/musicians but sadly having a small population and not much for publicity some of these bands fly under the radar and disapear into obscurity never to be heard of again

Good band. I'm playing Only Happy When It Rains right now.

>>72418994
They had, like, 3 self-titled albums. Not that it isn't obvious which one you're talking about, but it seems funny looking back at that.

>>72418010
I like Broken Social Scene and most of the members related side projects. As a side note Leslie Feist turned into a total milf.

Anybody into Emo/Screamo/Hardcore and looking for a Canadian band should check out Breakwater. They only released a handful of songs, but they're pretty cool.

Neil Young

The guess who

Broken Social Scene

Bryan Adams

Owen Pallet

Rush

Tegan and Sara

The New Pornographers

alvvays

Also Drake and the Weekend are two of the biggest artists right now both Canadian.
