CANADIAN METAL IS ALIVE AND KICKING
By Charles Ivey

I hear it all the time “Metal is Dead” but if you were to only go out on the town in such a city as Toronto on a Friday or Saturday night you would soon find that on every corner there is a club or venue and in this building there are people enjoying good ole Canadian Metal Bands and having a fantastic time moshing in the pits and banging tomorrows headache into reality and they are loving every minute of it.

It seems that in this day and age the only thing that people tend to believe is real and available is what they see on much music and that the only styles of music that are still alive and kicking are the ones that have expensive videos on these shows but alas I am here to tell all those who may not know that Canadian Metal Music is indeed quite alive and the scene is only growing larger. Don’t listen to the mass media when they try to shove their “instabands” down your throat and into your delicate ears oh no there is certainly more to life than what we are being pedaled by the profit hungry record labels and the music industry in general. If the band doesn’t have a cute little virgin dressed like a hooker or five pretty boys then you don’t tend to hear much about them and why is that? Possibly because the powers that be don’t think this will sell it’s definitely not what they are trying to force on you so it must not be popular or they would have capitalized on it sooner right? Well with bands like Slipknot breaking records and going platinum on every front how could one possibly think metal is dead? It’s NOT!

The Toronto Metal Music Scene is blasting on almost every street every weekend and almost every night the week, there are amazing bands out there all the time playing their hearts out for fans that are more than grateful to have them and one large question most of these fans have is.
