LABEL: Ghost Records

INFO: Candians essential fun fact: Canadians bassist Massimo Fiorio is the author (with Riccardo Bidoia) of a bestselling Italian book I Fermenti lattici dello yogurt di Chuck Norris sono tutti morti, which sums all the satirical facts and jokes about martial artist and actor Chuck Norris. Yes, you read that correctly! Canadians released its self-produced debut EP The North Side Of Summer in 2005 and immediately found critical acclaim. Blogs and webzines were the first to realize just how catchy and interesting the Canadians' songs were (Fiorio is a blog star in Italyin his own right -- his blog dietnam.blogspot.com receives thousands of hits a day) and soon after magazines followed with amazing reviews. Although the EP was self-released without distribution, it sold out and forced a repress. Their debut album A Sky With No Stars will be released by the Varese-based indie label Ghost Records in October 2007. The album showcases the great ability of a band playing indie pop anthems that are catchy, unforgettable and timeless.
