Hey y'all. Lately a lot of rock bands have come on to the US scene with some major hits. Sum 41, Nickelback, Default, Avril Lavigne, etc...and I must say I love em all. Just wanted to hear your guys' thoughts on the matter. Any Canadian fans out there?

Well, I think all those bands suck, but I do like some other Canadians such as Matthew Good, Our Lady Peace, and Propaghandi.

I thought Alanis had denounced Canada and was claiming to be from LA now. A lot of my old friends went to high school with her. She would hang out by her car and play her first album (pure teen-pop) really loud all the time.

The Tragically Hip are pretty much the quintessential Canadian band. Although I've pretty much given up on them based on the weak and generic albums they've released over the past 8 or so years. Fully Completely and Up To Here are a couple of the finest albums released by a Canadian group in the past 15 years.

Edit, Averett beat me to posting The Hip and I had forgotten about the Headstones (They're both from Kingston, which probably makes it the rockingest town in Canada)
