so... i'm kind of a scenester... not really but yeh
i went to this show a few nights ago, the headlining act were the JUNIOR BOYS who are originally from my city of Hamilton... they're pretty decent

but... there was this other band, from Toronto... i've never heard of them until that night, and it's either how inebriated i was then or i REALLY dug them...
still do (listening to them now)
They're called RABBIT SEASON and they're electro... funny enough, in a few of their songs i can hear a bit of a prince influence (when p was in his dark 80s electro-esque sound with the heavy drums) see "Unnatural" - i CANNOT stop listening to this song... "Slow Math" which is the title track of their album:




i hear the influence, but i'm sure many people will disagree - as they usually do in this forum

but enjoy nonetheless.

I like this "Slow Math" song too now that you've shown me.

Junior Boys are going to be playing here soon too I think. I have both of their albums and saw them on the first tour.

which show was it?

ok so get this
SHUT DOWN IS NOT ON THEIR ALBUM!!! I've never heard it before and now that i'm listening to it now.... ITS SUCH A PRINCE SONG!

wow... i'm hooked. officially.

and surprisingly, i wasn't really impressed with Junior Boys when they finally went on.. i guess because they were drinking with their old school friends from MacMaster (the university had the show)
and seeing Rabbit Season first kinda ruined it
they're SO good!

I like Junior Boys.
