Ohh, thank goodness I came across Montreal's "The Unicorns" while working at CHMA Radio at Mount Allison. After discovering their whacky, extremely fun and jovial album I was in love. Although the boys only released a demo and this album they have since reformed as "The Islands" with yet another helluva album. Critics love them and how can't you? Using bizarre and random kids instruments/toys to create a rich sounding album is one of their keys; the other is to make songs with no chorus. Give this album a try, if you're as much a fun of fun pop/rock music as I am, you'll totally dig it.Check them out at AllMusicGuide here.
And on MetaCritic here.
Here's the album streaming on imeem.com:
