Quick update today. Tonight is the From Autumn to Ashes extravaganza, featuring openers Silverstein, Most Precious Blood and .hopesfall. I'm going almost entirely to see MPB rip the place apart with their new stuff. Have you heard the breakdown to 'Funeral Photography'? Sick.

Remember Quebec's The Kry? Oldschool Christian rock band? They're still around; I saw a new album from them on Metro1Music, a label I also thought had gone the way of the dinosaur. How 'bout that!

Sloan are coming back to the nation's capital; the band will rock the Capital Music Hall April 30th. I really wanna see them. They're one of the Canadian rock bands I truly like who I've never seen.

Nodes of Ranvier are back up swinging with a new lineup; they're part of the Hardcore Gone Wild mini-tour, hitting Chicago, Cleveland and Buffalo from March 26th-28th. If you're in those cities, go watch 'em tear it up. [The Scene]

The Passion of the Christ was finally ousted from the number-one spot on the movie charts. What flick usurped the position of power? Dawn of the Dead. How's that for irony? [virtualfrequency]

I haven't heard much of Coheed & Cambria, but several people whose judgement I trust rave about these guys; check out decapolis.com's review of their latest album.

Congrats to the Carleton Ravens mens' basketball team; they took the CIS championship yesterday in Halifax with their 50th consecutive win. Fifty straight wins.. That is ridiculous.

Showtime! See you there!
