EXCLUSIVE NEW DOWNLOAD: M Pour Montreal: We Are Wolves - Fight & Kiss + Magique + Coconut Night

I just got back from a weekend in Quebec for the M pour Montreal festival. Three days, 21 bands and a lot of Boreale beer (cause I figured out how to order it en francaise). In the coming days I'll be tell you about some of the best of Montreal - from bands of many to bands of few. Bands with keytars and bands, like today's We Are Wolves, who got on stage wearing huge tribal looking masks covered in pyramid triangles strapped to their backs, effectively doubling their size.

We Are Wolves similarly stood in a triangle - a standing drummer flanked by a bass/guitarist and a keyboards/beatboxer. With all the detached cool of the Faint and the much-missed howl of Death From Above 1979, these 3 Montrealers use their instruments as weapons. On "Fight & Kiss" the riff is so driving and sexy they dare you to keep your hands to yourself. "Magique" is a metallic throb through an incomprehensible vocoder and "Coconut Night" is a song made for trouble. All the more intriguing, We Are Wolves puts out record with Oxford, Mississippi's Fat Possum. Grab these songs and try not to get arrested, it makes customs much more difficult.

Sounds like: The Faint, Death From Above 1979, Kraftwerk, Lemonade, Anavan
