This is overwritten ("The opening acoustic guitar chords of When the Night Feels My Song have a similar effect on Canadians as the opening chords of Back in Black or Smells Like Teen Spirit" is not remotely true, sorry) but some fun tracks here

These songs from Wave, Prozzäk, Nikki Yanofsky and more won’t ring many bells outside Canadian borders.
