Toughest vote ever....ended up picking Streetheart, mainly because I figured they just don't get the respect that most of these bands get, I was right since I'm the only one who voted for them!!.............Anyway I'd pick the great BTO if they were listed...beyond a shadow of a doubt the best Canadian band ever.... :omg:

Puuuhh ... ! :blink: What a difficult poll !!

 

I went with Saga. They have been around for such a long time and the music scene wouldn't be the same without them.

Harem Scarem follows closely.

I've loved Triumph since the first time I got blown away listening to "Lay It On The Line", easy choice for me, but truth be told I love Canadian bands in general. :banger:

 

Does Rockarma qualify? :tumbsup:

 

 

Why do you think Pete joined Rockarma? He's always been a closet Canadian. His favorite team is the Toronto Blue Jays, he says "eh" every couple of words and he lets the band pay him in beaver pelts and Maple Syrup. :lol:

where is Sven Gali?!?!?!

 

oh the pain, the pain!!

 

 

Yeah and where are that famous band 'God Made Me Funky' I want to know??

 

 

The pain, the pain indeed mate - Were talking some classic Canadian bands here. Sven Gali released one very average disc, followed by a completely awful steaming pile of shite 2nd disc. They should bow at the boots of all these bands IMO. Check some of these band out instead of ruining your ear drums ;)

Sven Gali's debut single-handedly crushes anything from any of these bands:

 

Loverboy (despite the great 'Just getting started')

Triumph (despite the great 'Surveilance' and 1992 release)

Rush

Streetheart

Santers

Haywire (despite a couple of good songs on 'Get off')

Refugee

Helix (despite some pretty cool hard rock discs)

April Wine

Toronto

Headpins

Boulevard (despite some pretty nice AOR from these kids)

Coney Hatch

Saga

Kick Axe (despite a couple of pretty good discs)

Chilliwack

      Melodic Hard Rock Song of the Day

      Yep, cracking indie release of which there are so many but this one is actually really good.

      Babymetal

      By Captain Howdy · Posted

      I have been a Band Maid fan since their early days (2015) as I really don't mind foreign vocals as long as the music is great, but I always kinda avoided Babymetal as I saw a video of them once and really wasn't impressed with the kiddy vocals, so never gave them another chance. Fast forward to now and on the back of the collab with Electric Callboy I have decided to give them a go. I thought they had a huge discography as they have like 25 albums, but on closer inspection it is only four studio albums and 21 live albums. As I am not a fan of live albums anyway, I decided to buy the four studio albums as they are all quite cheap. Have to say there music is a mixed bag, but overall really enjoying a lot of it. Not sure if I just picked the wrong song to start with, or if it is just that I have adapted more due to getting into a lot of weird and wonderful foreign bands over the last few years, but I am glad I finally gave them a proper go. Have to say, if this song was sung in English I think they would have a lot of fans on here
