Godspeed You! Black Emperor – Dead Flag Blues (1997)

One of the great records of the 1990s. Another wonderful (ahem) post-rock, Canadian band.

Not sure what has sparked the renaissance of Canadian music but let’s bear in mind that, in total, the appalling legacy of Rush mean that Canada is still working off a large overall musical deficit with the world.

Rush are like a large dose of subprime Dublin real estate casting a long shadow over future generations. Well, they would if there actually was a music fiscal deficit. But, there isn’t.
