About
Bike Thiefs (Toronto)
Bike Thiefs are a chatty post-punk band from Toronto, Canada who have drawn comparisons to rock stalwarts Fugazi and Constantines as well as more contemporary acts like Parquet Courts and METZ. The band has been featured in several international publications including Exclaim!, New Noise Magazine and Impose Magazine. Over the past two years Bike Thiefs have toured across Canada and The United States in support of their most recent release “Lean Into It”. The band has shied away from throat tearing vocals and hair flipping riffs in exchange for matter of fact speak-sing vocals and hypnotic drums, making for a band that would much rather be sincere than intense.
Viewing Party
Viewing Party are a four piece band with a sound equally influenced by angry post-punk and blissful art-pop, they deliver quick and compact songs that combine satirical narratives with dour but joyful melodies.
Softswitch
New post-punk supergroup ft. members of Permanent Mistake and The Vitals.
