Last week, the Polaris Prize committee announced their short list.
Ten great Canadian albums.
Which I like to think of as ten great albums that happen to be Canadian.
I listened to all ten of them. In a day. Which is insane. (Full disclosure - I had previously listened to one of the nominees - Nemhasis - and posted about her during Maple Leaf March).
All of them were good.
One of them was a lot better than the rest.
Bite Down, by Ribbon Skirt.
Previously known as Love Language, this Montreal, QC band is amazing, with a rock sound - and this album is my favorite of 2025 so far. Give them a listen.
Got that down? Good. Now listen to their SXSW 2025 performance of the same song. It's practically star-making.
