Ford Pier Vengeance Trio
"Dense, artful, guitar-centric power-prog, packed with tension and restrained eccentricity that occasionally erupts into tuneful, joyous rave-ups that remind you that it’s still rock."
Mi'ens
Mi'ens is art-rock/math-rock at its weirdest. Experimental with a side of noise + a side of sparklepop.
"Intricate and fantastically full-sounding noisescapes."
"Reminiscent of Hella or Don Cab." "Complex conversational playing." "Trippy as f*ck."

Lengthy List of Lovers
Named after an obscure Beach Boys lyric, Lengthy List of Lovers do not have as esoteric a sound as the name's genesis may indicate - touting catchy arrangements, trundling riffage, equal parts ethereal and disquieting vocals, and bombastic beats served atop peppy synth bass lines. The result? A cross-pollination of new-wave, am-gold and Canadian guitar rock, peppered with a modicum of ass-shaking techno.
White Mink
White Mink are Myles Black (Pearly Whites), Portia Boehm and Charlotte Coleman. Indie-pop with swagger.
