Watchmen

I really dug that last pod cast. Are these guys solid? Which album would you start with?

Start with Silent Radar... then get McLaren Furnace Room to see them at their rawest.

Definitely a band I miss dearly.

They played a show in 1999 at the Milwaukee Zoo which was my introduction to them live, it was quite a kick ass show. They played a David Bowie song whose title always eludes me, the chorus goes (I Think) Hey, Mr. Dinosaur is this what you are looking for? Defenitely check out Silent Radar, McLaren Furnace Room and In The Trees.

Geez, how did I miss this thread? Awesome band, Silent Radar is the best album imo. Ive seen these guys alot and they are fantastic, too bad they are no more. Cry One of the most underrated Canadian bands in recent memory. Any Day Now is one of my favorite songs of all time. Definitely a band worth checking out. And if you already have, whats your impressions?

Danny's new band Doctor is awesome. Rob Higgins is also in the band (former fill in for OLP and nephew of Geddy Lee). I liked The Watchmen but the Doctor CD blows Silent Radar out of the water in my opinion. This is one band I really want to see live.

I think their stuff is on Maple Music. It is one of my favorite CD's.

I saw Doctor live and they were good, but better than SR...nah, not in my opinion anyway.
