a.k.a. my christmas list
A trio of Canadian music bloggers (Greg of Are You Familiar?, Jay Watts of Goldkicks, and Stuart Berman of Eye Magazine) have put together this list of The Alternative List of Canadian Bands By A Few of The Other Canadian Bloggers. I confess I don't know what the list is an alternative to, but it's still excellent. Certainly a lot more hopeful than those lists of the best bands in America.
