Rheostatics are amazing. Go listen to some Nickelback if you don't like them..

[olearyp]

maybe it's best you left canada then

@crazenate They're both very, very mostly a bit above average

Well Dave is Dave and Martin is Martin. I don't think it's the least bit fair to expect Bidini is going to produce an album like Ghost of Danny G. That is not his strength or character. LIW is totally Dave, and strong and cohesive on its own. We all know that Martin singing a Dave song like Dope Fiends or Stolen Car is pretty much as good as it gets, but it should not detract from the fantastic songs on LIW.

@FOWLMUSIC You're right. I might have been a bit harsh. There are some good elements to his album and there's definitely talent there. I probably would have ate this all up back in my uni days. He's still an awesome live performer. I wouldn't hesitate to see him. But now that I'm a bit older, I guess I'm expecting more from Bidini because I know he can do it. Something like Martin Tielli's latest works (particularly his Ghost of Danny G albums), which are just daring and brilliant.

So false it's ridiculous! Land is Wild is an awesome album!

I have been a diehard Habs fan over 20 years and even I like this. Props to Dave and the band eh?

@olearyp why you say maybe its best you left canada when there from t.o maybe you should leave canada i bet you dont like the matthew good band either,anyway canadian bands are the best and dont know if you will get this but if ya do think b4 ya speak??????

[velocipedjones]

if there's a band that's more proudly canadian...

[TheGreenMark]

Wendel was a REAL hockey player.

@Giles4200 THANK YOU!!!! They are the most unique band that I have ever heard. "Row" from Introducing Happiness has a mixture of Canadian sound and yodelling at one point and they made that sound incredible too.

Leafs rock and Wendel is till the best EVER.

Props to the Rheostatics for capturing the Canadian mood perfectly. Totally takes me back to the 80's
