Yeah, that Anvil doc got a ton of praise at Sundance a short while back.
"Metal on Metal" is right up there with Razor's "Evil Invaders", as far as influencing a generation of Canadian metal fans in the 80s.

(BTW, were you actually hoping for more responses from non-Canadians? I can fuck off.)
― Sundar, Friday, 1 February 2008 22:03 (sixteen years ago) link
Well I figured mostly Canadians would post. But I wanted to find out some Canadian bands are highly popular worldwide. Excluding the obvious.

I'm not Canadian at all, and most of the posts in this thread are from me, so I wouldn't worry about it.

I just thought it would be fun to see what it was like to be Scott Seward.

Awesome!
What was supposed to go in the "one of the greatest Canadian metal albums of all Time" broken image, Adrien?

I hate hate cryptopsy mainly for the singer, and IF you could understand what he says, the lyrics also.

Oops, that's Simply Saucer's Cyborgs Revisited. An unbelievable album, part of which was recorded live on the roof of a Hamilton, Ont. shopping mall...and produced by Daniel Lanois.

All music calls it "an earth-shatteringly important record," but unfortunately it's going for between $40 and $70.

Anything Box are from New Jersey. That's in the United States. Not Canada.

Yeah! Hat's are overrated. The fashion accessory that is. The band is kick ass.

Simply Saucer's out there for cheap, it was reissued by Sonic Unyon in 2003 or so. Well worth it!

This thread is a lot of fun. Unearthing a lot of cool stuff. Who knew Canada was such a fertile country for ROCK?

I most certainly didn't! Quite an eye-opener for me.
