“It's Such A Trap”: Meg Mac Refuses To Be Another Tragic Tale On 'It's My Party'

Album Review: Solids - Blame Confusion

A Canadian guitar and drums duo who crank out simple, arse-kicking rock that’s as much about attitude as it is about music.



A Canadian guitar and drums duo who crank out simple, arse-kicking rock that's as much about attitude as it is about music. At least, that's the impression given by the opening tracks on Blame Confusion, owing a debt to Japandroids. As the album rolls on, songs like Cold Hands and Through The Walls make it obvious they're no derivative rip-off. With more attention to melody and quiet introspection than other blues-based two-pieces who've dominated recent years, Blame Confusion finds new areas to mine, offsetting its cocky strut with more than a hint of vulnerability.
