"Wolf Parade is like a retarded dog with four heads. At any given time, three of the heads are sleeping." -Wolf Parade’s Dan Boeckner in the Montreal Mirror.
I saw this quote up on Wolf Parade’s Myspace page and couldn’t help but pass it along.
Wolf Parade is one of many Canadian Indie rock bands, but they do a lot of things right. For some reason, there is a humorous element in Wolf Parade’s music. Don’t get me wrong, their music rocks, but the combination of Spencer Krug’s (Sunset Rubdown, Swan Lake, Frog Eyes) voice and the synthed out guitar rock make for a goofy sound.
It’s been too long since these guys have released an album, Apologies to the Queen Mary was released in 2005 and Wolf Parade was before that. Here’s one fan who’s hoping that Krug will spend some more time on this project!
Favorite songs include "I’ll Believe In Anything", "Shine A Light", and "Secret Knives". What do you think?
If you like Wolf Parade, try: Arcade Fire, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, Broken Social Scene, The New Pornographers.
Keep that retarded dog comment in mind as you watch this video for "Shine A Light" from Apologies to the Queen Mary.
