Pitstop: Wildlife

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

Chances are you haven't heard of Wildlife but upon listening to the Ontario natives you'll be changing your tune. You might be tempted to compare the band to fellow Canadian bands Arcade Fire or The New Pornographers but that'd be a mistake. Combining punk rock intensity and folk sentimentality with powerpop the band creates energetic heart-felt tunes with a unique sound and memorable, moving melodies. The five piece first formed in 2006 and pretty much haven't looked back. Now the band is working on their debut album and I for one couldn't be more excited. Here's hoping the album enjoys a release sometime this year as it'll certainly be one for your library.
