Well, they're from Dartmouth that doesn't bode well. It seems like there's always been loads of great music coming out of the Megatropolis (HDBS) but almost no one makes it big.

Megatropolis? That sounds huge. Is that like 1000 metropoli? |
Ha! It's Halifax, Dartmouth, Bedford and Sackville. Four "cities" that amalgamated their municipal government some time back. The term is mostly used sarcastically (maybe half a million people total). It is really a great place though, well maybe not Bedford and Sackville so much... |

| Thrush Hremit and The Joel Plaskett Emergency are the best bands ever to come out of Halifax/Nova Scotia. Joel's latest album, Ashtray Rock, is a pretty rockin album. It takes its name from a rock in the woods behind Northcliff Recreation Centre in the Clayton Park area of Halifax. Check it out. |
