		<description><![CDATA[Rating: 4 / 5 Reviewer: Nathan Atnikov Johanna and Klara Soderberg are First Aid Kit, a prodigious sister duo being hailed as the next great addition to the retro Americana movement currently housed by the likes of Fleet Foxes and others. They&#8217;ve also drawn comparisons to Joanna Newsom, they sing songs about Emmylou Harris and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Rating: 3 / 5 Reviewer: Trent Depue For Paolo is the latest effort from Calgary’s Woodpigeon, and for it, the listeners get everything they would expect from the harmony-rich band. The flip side to that coin is that they don’t really get anything they wouldn’t expect either. The record opens and closes with two different [...]]]></description>

Her guitar playing, once so innovative and unusual, is now familiar to a fault. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Rating: 2 / 5 Reviewer: David Coats There are a number of media publications who are describing Ryan Adams’ new release, Ashes &#038; Fire, as a ‘return to form.’ However, this record is actually an entirely logical continuation of the road Adams has travelled for his last three records (including 2007’s Easy Tiger and 2008’s [...]]]></description>

At a recent screening of Hard Core Logo at The Toronto International Film Festival someone, possibly Hugh Dillon, remarked that [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Rating: 4.5 / 5 Reviewer: Kevin Hartford Dan Mangan&#8217;s production values seem to have increased with his popularity, not just in quality but in scope. Oh Fortune has an epic feel to it that was lacking in Mangan&#8217;s previous efforts, the intimate debut Postcards &#038; Daydreaming, and the understated, Polaris-nominated Nice, Nice, Very Nice.

Regarded for more than living up to their name when it comes to the tone of their music, their dark alt-country continues to develop [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Rating: 4 / 5 Reviewer: Trent Depue Whitehorse is the latest project from Canadian music scene frontrunners Luke Doucet and Melissa McClelland. And the first time the couple has packaged themselves together under a collective band name, rather than working together on each others solo projects. This eight track EP serves as something of a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Rating: 4.5 / 5 Reviewer: Greg Hutton Chad VanGaalen has a knack for writing soaring pop songs that are deceptively simple in their composition. On Diaper Island, VanGaalen plays to his strengths – wandering lead guitar lines walk hand-in-hand with intriguing and unique vocal melodies, all played over relatively simple chord progressions. By focusing on [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Rating: 4 / 5 Reviewer: Greg Hutton Creep On Creepin’ On is an aptly titled record that matches the sweet but naggingly sinister croon of principle singer-songwriter Taylor Kirk with a darker, denser and more confident approach to instrumentation than has appeared previously on a Timber Timbre album. As on previous efforts, the primary punch [...]]]></description>
