Toronto punk band <a href="https://www.puptheband.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">PUP </a>are back with their highly-anticipated 3rd LP, “Morbid Stuff”, out now. PUP have spent the past 5 years touring the world on the back of their first two records, which earned them love and accolades from The New York Times, Pitchfork, SPIN, and helped to cement them as one the most energetic and exciting up and coming bands in the punk community. “Morbid Stuff”, produced by Dave Schiffman (Vampire Weekend, Weezer, The Mars Volta), is the band’s best and most complete effort yet - a noisy, biting, and recklessly fun ode to nihilism and depression.

<a href="https://casperskulls.bandcamp.com" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Casper Skulls</a>Casper Skulls emerged from the Toronto exurbs in 2015, bursting onto the local scene with a studied sound and supercharged live performances. They have been hailed by the likes of FADER, Stereogum, MTV and Billboard. Their 2017 debut LP, Mercy Works, is densely arranged, intricately written and performed with an uncommon earnestness. With the release of the single “O My Enemy” in October 2018, Casper Skulls are demonstrating their more stripped back and reflective sound which will be the direction of their upcoming sophomore record in 2019.and<a href="https://drewthomson.bandcamp.com" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">The Drew Thomson Foundation</a> from Toronto, ON&quot;I’m Drew Thomson, I like flip flops, adidas track pants, collecting guitars and Okkervill River.I like other things but right now that’s what I really like. I have too many guitars that I can’t play all that well but I like being around them. I like the way they look and they feel and they sit on their stands against the fireplace in my apartment that doesn’t work. I’ve always liked touching a guitar, having it hang off me from it’s strap like a dead limb – I’ve never been that great of a guitar player but that’s fine and every day I keep picking the things up and making noise and writing words to that noise. I’ve done it almost every day since I was in grade 7 and I was given a Harmony Bobcat from my stepdad and mom in lieu of a drum set (which I really wanted) and I’ll probably do it in some function until the day that I die,. It’s just part of who I am. It’s how I process life and diagnose feelings that like to hide wander around in those areas we don’t like to go so much. Some songs are good and some songs aren’t – but that shouldn’t stop them from being written. I write. And if writing makes you a writer then I am a writer.I’m Drew Thomson, I like flip flops, adidas track pants, collecting guitars, Okkervill River and I am a writer.&quot;
