  • THE DEEP DARK WOODS

    The instrumentation on Saskatoon, Sask.’s Deep Dark Woods’ sophomore album is lovely.

  • Sexy or just plain scary?

    Every October, I anxiously anticipate the flier insert advertising the new costumes for women, and every year they become more and more ludicrous.

  • THE PAINT MOVEMENT

    The Paint Movement’s self-titled debut is incredibly reminiscent of a Broken Social Scene record - throughout the album, I had to remind myself that I was not listening to the Brendan Canning-fronted ensemble.

    Sometimes it takes a while for people to realize what they are meant to do. Such was the case for local fashion photographer Lisa Varga.

  • Radical Book Fair and DIY Fest set to shake things up

    The Radical Book Fair and DIY Fest, happening Sept. 23-25, is set to push some boundaries and open some eyes.

  • Denim on denim and oil on a canvas

    Winnipeg is often considered a creative Mecca, with its long, hard winters forcing everyone inside and leaving them to their own devices.

  • Crooked Brothers

    Winnipeg’s Crooked Brothers’ second album opens solidly, with what sounds like a suped-up version of the Breaking Bad theme in the historical 17 Horses.
