Wolf Parade






Today on You Got Booned... Wolf Parade. Ah 2005. This was the awakening to the masses... when real people (as opposed to music snobs like me and boon) started caring about indie bands due to sudden popularity of the Garden State Soundtrack and bands such as Modest Mouse. Wolf Parade seemed to be just another Canadian buzzband, yet the keyboard/vocalist Spencer Krug already had quite the resume and list of cohorts. Being a part of Frog Eyes and Sunset Rubdown, and hanging out with the Arcade Fire gave the band the indie cred they needed to be praised by the emerging blog scene, yet they had the sound that was able to appeal to the new audience craving accessible indie music, thus with the release of Apologies to the Queen Mary, Wolf Parade became internet superstars. Flash forward to now... after a bit of a sophomore slump the third album Expo 86 due out on June 29th, and it has just as much buzz and expectations as the first album. Here's a taste
