Grand slam

When it comes to heavy-duty rock, it's hard to beat Ottawa's Tokyo Sex Whale. I've been listening to a lot of metal lately, and I have to say I think their new album Slammer rocks harder than a lot of 2010's hotly touted metal fare (Kylesa, I'm looking at you ...). I picked up a copy on CD at their Gaga Weekend set and am eagerly awaiting the vinyl. Of course, seeing them lives is best of all.

Yogi signals it is time to begin! Or where the merch booth is. One of the two.

I'm hoping there will be a vinyl release show sometime soon.
