New Music: Kill Chicago Solidify Their Sound and Break out the Fireworks on ‘The Fix’
Four years after the release of their album The Grey, The Fix is the mature release of Fredericton’s Kill Chicago. More than simply a sophomore effort, the album has the band dishing out their usual brand of protest song, now through the lens of parenthood. They may be rallying against a system that’s thrown a few hard lessons their way, but rather than the piss and vinegar of angry young men we’re seeing the tempered response of someone who now has something more to protect.

New Music: Rudy & The Pacè Family Orchestra Shine on Debut EP ‘Vanguard’
Rudy & the Pacè Family Orchestra have just released their first EP, but you’d never be able to tell. There’s a sense of musical maturity present on Vanguard that cleverly disguises this fact. Frontman Rudy Pacè sings about these trials with the conviction of someone who carries the weight of experience. Even if that isn’t true, it just means he’s found a talent in making anything sound believable. The instrumentation from the fellow band members seriously meshes, each part fitting together to form a well-polished puzzle. All in all, an impressive feat for a group who only has a handful of years under their belt. Continue reading New Music: Rudy & The Pacè Family Orchestra Shine on Debut EP ‘Vanguard’
