When ALEXISONFIRE frontman George Petit met with Altsounds recently, talk not only focused on their recent headline tour of the UK and their EP release Dogs Blood, but they also discussed the Canadian music scene.

“There’s lots of bands.”, Comments George, “Chad Kay is like a hip hop artist from Canada and he is one of the most talented MC’s I’ve ever met. He’s got a new album called TSOL which is fucking incredible. There’s a band called Quest for Fire. They are a grungy sounding band they are really good. Mature Situations which is Chris Colohan from Cursed and Left For Dead. Yeah Mature Situations, they play as old people. They get make up done and the drummer plays in a wheel chair. They are almost like a skate punk band. The list goes on! There’s a very vibrant music community in Canada and we’re pretty lucky to be from there I think…“
