Matthew Good Talks About Next Album ‘Arrows Of Desire’

Matthew Good is well on his way to releasing his next album Arrows Of Desire in September and I spoke to him about it upon the release of first single “Had It Coming.”

The album’s a decided return to “rawk” and will sound mighty comforting to any of the many ’90s rock nostalgist who are proudly coming out of the closet after years of shame.

And the song “Had It Coming” is a good time, so… so far, so good.

To find out what else Good had to say about the forthcoming album head over to Huffington Post Music Canada by clicking here.

The New Pornographers

When The New Pornographers recently performed a free show in Vancouver on a converted bus for those crazy Red Bull kids Sarah saw it as the perfect opportunity to talk to them. So she did.

The result was a wide-ranging interview for Huffington Post Music Canada where band leader Carl Newman told her about how psyched he was about the band’s new songs.

There’s No LCBO Strike! Happy Victoria Day Long Weekend

One of the biggest stories in Ontario this week wasn’t about Toronto’s allegedly crackhead mayor Rob Ford, or the fundamentally sketchy behavior of two Conservative Senators Mike Duffy and Pamela Wallin, it was the serious-business worry about whether we’d be able to buy liquor over this Victoria Day long weekend. This, because the LCBO was poised to go on strike.

As such, Sarah wrote a couple stories about this phenomenon for Huffington Post Music Canada. The first takes us through all the stages of grief in realizing that you’re going to run out of booze, all set to mostly-Canadian music.

The second, written after the LCBO strike was averted, contemplates those same stages of grief, but hey, we don’t have to worry about it now, so let’s get shit-faced.

Normally it’s me who’s all about the jock jams, but Sarah also did her part when she created a list of hockey rock songs for Huffington Post Music Canada to celebrate the start of the NHL playoffs.

In said list you’ll find iconic songs from the likes of The Tragically Hip and Stompin’ Tom Connors.

Read the list here.

Sarah did, however, forget to include this gem from our close personal friend Darrin Pfeiffer.
