Admittedly, I'm no genius when it comes to music, but apparently this guy is: 100 Canadian Rock Songs You Oughta Know.

Worth a read. I like the categories (particularly the first one).

Men Without Hats!

Feh - where is the love for Men Without Hats?!

Actually I think '80s Montreal really deserved it's own genre (The Box, MWH, Mitsou, [sort of] Sass Jordan and a few others). Also I think he underrated Rough Trade - they cut a pretty wide swath through the early '80s Canadian scene.

Good call on Martha and the Muffins and Bruce Cockburn though.

Dude, every one of the bands that I mentioned (except some of Mitsou) *did* sing in English. Men Without Hats dude! "Safety Dance", "Pop Goes the World"! Does no-one give them the love they deserve?
