With each additional listen, this album opens itself up to being more than just an instrumental folk album, but one layered in creativity and talent. Once again breathing new life into an old form, Duncan Pelletier proves that he is not just another folk singer.
Jim Guthrie’s Remastered Edition of Now, More Than Ever is not far from the original. The poppy electronics of the remastered can be seamlessly juxtaposed to a nostalgic look down memory lane.
The Canadian singer-songwriter has foremost made a name for himself through self-produced cassettes. Having recorded as a solo artist and as a band member of Islands, Royal City, and Human Highway, it can be safely imposed that the original Now, More Than Ever is a great leap in his music career after having been nominated for a Juno Award.
Lindsay Katt returns to the FrostClick favorites with Happy Fits of Rage. Get ready for some goosebumps as the performance artist/musician/songwriter serenades your ears with an eclectic mix of upbeat melodies and core-driven lines.

The sea serves as an inspiration to so many wonderful things, including Fanfarlo‘s recent EP.
This London-based indie alternative band released The Sea last October 2013, and the quintet describes it as “science fiction” concept project, where the songs are said to be a discussion about the possible origins of humanity and the direction we are all heading for in the future. Moreover, the group describes it as “Space Opera” meets “Spaghetti Western.” [Hmm, interesting.]
The wait is finally over for Deadwall fans as the band’s second release, Bukimi no Tani, is up for grabs.

This probably is the mantra of rising urban group Ain’t No Love, which, after wowing indie music fans with slicker-than-slick tunes via their self-titled EP, returns with a slightly moody Tears of Joy.
