I recently started producing a radio show on CJLO (1690AM) called Edge of the City. It’s on every Monday from Noon to 2PM. You know what’s great about having access to a college radio station? I get to raid their library. Know what that means? It means that every Monday, I’m going to grab 3 random albums from the station, listen to them, and feature the best one here. Enjoy!
My hands were looking for punk rock this week, apparently. When I randomly raided the CJLO library this week, I came upon a few punk rock acts, one of which was a clear stand-out. The band is question was The Lucky Ones, who have just put out their second album, Heartbreak, Hangovers & Punk Rock.
Coming out of Southern Ontario, the Lucky Ones are proving once again that Canada knows punk rock. This record reeks of good times and hard alcohol, in the best of ways. It’s a high-energy, high-passion album, and it merits many listens. If you’re in need of a new punk album and you’re not sure where to look, this is where you should go. Click here to hop on over to the band’s Facebook page, where you can have a proper listen.
Cheers!
