It has to be said, bands from Canada do
have a nice sense of rhythm. After X-Ray Zebras and The Stormalongs,
New Apple Taste is the third canadian group I know that has
graciously decided to get involved in the free music business.
Hailing from Montréal, these five
musicians and two MCs (or emcees, as they like to say it) like to get
down and play jazzy funky groovy rock instrumentals with screaming
guitar solos, sax and his brass friends (and his problems with the
law), drums getting crazy, in an overall atmosphere of pure musical
affinity, which sometimes feels like a jam session recorded in a
smokey back room in a bar somewhere, with sometimes rapped lyrics
getting along.
Which by the way made me think a bit about the X-Ray
Zebras, but just a bit.
Feels like a night at the stray cats' crib, with electricity and hip-hop added.
