Critiques CD: Solids | Generic Dogs EP

Xavier and Louis are the two dudes behind this Montreal project, and they are nice enough to let us into the world of their first EP and share the musical wares inside. Solids take us back to the days of yore, when we still at least believed in the faint hope for world peace and love, through good ole indie pop-punk-rock in a straight-up format of drums and guitar. It’s easy to see why these young guns have enamoured themselves to both fans and fellow bands alike – the gang-style vocals, wall-of-fuzz sound and hooky choruses are filtered through an attitude of enthusiasm and boundless energy.
