Canada rocks!


The great white north brings us one of their first commercially successful rock bands. Any fan of radio in the mid to late 90's should definitely check these dudes out. They bring it all from the slower jams to flat out rockers like Smile and Wave. Everyone needs to check out their songs Cemetery or Tweeter and the Monkey Man at least. You wont be disappointed.

"Headstones were a Canadian hard rock band that began in the late 1980s in Kingston, Ontario and were active until 2003. The band consisted of vocalist Hugh Dillon, guitarist Trent Carr, bassist Tim White, and drummer Dale Harrison. They frequently sold out at small and mid-sized venues and were known for their high energy live shows, particularly the antics of Dillon, who interacted with his audience in a variety of ways including spitting on them and hurling lit cigarettes into mosh pits. The songwriting tackled many serious and taboo topics, including suicide and even necrophilia. Headstones were one of the most commercially successful Canadian rock bands of the 1990s." (wiki.com)
