Photos: Ty Segall @ Phoenix Concert Theatre
California’s Ty Segall made his way through Toronto on February 6th, 2013 to perform at the Phoenix Concert Theatre in support of his many releases in 2012. The show consisted of a great lineup with Teenanger, K-Holes & Ex-Cult kicking off the night before Ty hit the stage to an eager audience. It looks to like 2013 is going to be another huge year for Ty and he’s starting it off right by giving his fans what they want… Rock ‘n’ Roll. Stay tuned for our full Gig Review of the show but in the meantime check out our photos…

Hannah Georgas’ latest self-titled release (via. Dine Alone) is a solid indie pop record with the perfect mixture of Regina Spektor, Leslie Feist and Georgas own unique flare. She’s currently on tour supporting her new record and stopping through Toronto @ The Virgin Mobile Mod Club on Friday February 1st, 2013. The opening act Aidan Knight & The Friendly Friends absolutely killed it. It was great to see a band jam and look to each other for the next move, feeling their own vibe. Hannah opened up the show seamlessly with a dimly lit stage combined with some vintage edison bulbs making the…

Stay tuned for a lot of upcoming tours featuring BTBAM including their latest announcement with Coheed and Cambria.

Marilyn Manson is currently on tour supporting his latest album Born Villian that was released May 1st in 2012. He brought along LA’s Butcher Babies as main support on the tour and stopped through the GTA to play a very intimate set at Hamilton Place on Wednesday January 30th. He did not disappoint his very loyal fans. If you were a fan of Manson as a teen, right now or ever and you live in the Hamilton area and missed the show… we feel bad for you.

Hot Water Music were back in Toronto last night and it was a great sight to see at Danforth Music Hall. Currently on tour supporting their most recent record Exister (via. Rise Records) since they reunited last year. There’s one thing to say about Hot Water Music’s recordings but regardless of how successful their records have been and how great they are, we think their live show is a MUST SEE for any fan of punk rock, rock, etc. The guys in Hot Water Music killed it last night playing tracks from their entire discography (which is big), giving the audience…

Scranton, Pennsylvania’s The Menzingers have been touring non stop in support of their latest full-length record On the Impossible Past (via. Epitaph Records).

With the only Canadian stop on the tour, Underøath said hello and goodbye to their Canadian fans at Toronto’s Sound Academy last Friday night. It’s always a tough time hearing bands you’ve grown to love break up. In the past few years we’ve seen plenty go like Thursday, Thrice and Alexisonfire. Underøath has been a massive act in the christian metal/metalcore scene and after close to 15 years as a band (1999-2013), it was great to see how much passion and energy they still had to give on their Farewell Tour. What a wicked show, it was nuts… Kids flying over…

Philadelphia’s mewithoutYou were slotted as the main support on Underøath‘s 2013 Farewell Tour and definitely did not disappoint. The band’s touring in support of their most recent studio album release Ten Stories that dropped back in May 0f 2012. With a great start to the night from letlive. and As Cities Burn (see photos of letlive. here | see photos of As Cities Burn here), mewithoutYou was the perfect band to lead into what’s going to be one of 2013′s best live shows.
