The winners, including second place winner Sonya The best example is on the track "Lola Stars and Stripes." Glaessner, all received gift cards to Target. On the track, drummer Dave Hamelin's heavy sticks can be heard from the early seconds of the song. Not light or bass nor drum, the Stills have created a song opening that has not been this much fun to listen to since the opening lines of "Guns of Brixton." As the song progresses, lead singer Fletcher belts out, "With an M-l 6 you will feel the surge of your American past." This tongue- in-cheek ode to American girls from their Canadian counterparts walks a tightrope between resentment and happiness, which is the crux of the Stills' sound. Through it all, Fletcher avoids getting too down, and near the end of the song, the fast pitched guitars disappear and Hamelin's drumming and Corbeils bass slow to a near heart beat rate. In this moment of self-actualization Hamelin simply wishes to be taken back to his lover's window, "back to that place where stars glow?" and "comets swarm like fireflies outside your window." The album title was taken from a lyric on the track "Gender Bombs." Hamelin and Fletcher told Pitchfork that their reason for choosing the line as the title is because it encapsulated the tone of the album as a whole. A confusing misnomer which the band constantly had to explain was the track "Of Montreal;" an ode not to the band of the same name but to their hometown. On the track, the steady beats of Hamelin mix with Fletcher's raspy voice to create a love song that acts as a dirge to a former girlfriend and the city, and music scene that surrounded him as it occurred. These tracks are but a sample of the lyrical and music accomplishment that forms the album as a whole.

PITCH Going home was never an option for single mother Lena Mahikan (Cara Gee). But when her 13-year-old, Peeka (Shay Eyre) overdoses in the streets of Toronto, she is forced to return home to her estranged mother and face a life-long legacy of shame and resentment. Empire of Dirt is a story about second chances and summoning the power of family to soothe the pain of cyclical damage. SHORT SYNOPSIS As in many Native families, Lena Mahikan (Cara Gee) grew up in the cycle of abuse. Her father, a residential school survivor, was an alcoholic until he killed himself when Lena was 10. Her mother, only 14 years her senior, turned to the slots and was consumed. By the time Lena was 15, she was pregnant and, before giving birth, was kicked to the curb by her mom. For 13 years Lena has been living, poverty stricken in Toronto, struggling to make ends meet, being chased by her own demons.

  • 2009 Polaris Music Prize Long List Announced Today
    2009 Polaris Music Prize Long List announced today. For Immediate release Toronto, ON (June 15, 2009) The Polaris Music Prize Long List was revealed today by Steve Jordan, Prize Founder and Executive Director. This is the fourth year of the $20,000 Prize which is awarded to the best full-length Canadian album, judged solely on artistic merit, without regard to genre or record sales. This marks the second year Polaris has made the Long List public. The Long List consists of the top 40 full- length Canadian records released from June 1, 2008 to May 31, 2009, according to an initial vote by the 181 members of the Polaris Music Prize jury. The jury consists of music journalists, broadcasters and bloggers from across Canada. No music industry personnel with direct financial relationships with artists vote for Polaris. “In just one year the Long List has become another integral tool for the Polaris mission of exposing great records to Canadian music lovers. Certainly this year’s list challenges the notion that quantity and quality are mutually exclusive,” said Jordan. Jordan also announced that the Long List is being presented by the Canada Council for the Arts. The Head of the Council’s Music Section, Russell Kelley, said, "the Polaris Prize is given to the best album of the year based solely on artistic merit. The Canada Council has a long history of funding projects based on artistic merit. This is a good very fit. We are pleased and proud to support this year's Long List." Jordan also announced a contest with Exclaim.ca where fans can offer their predictions on which of the 40 Long List titles will make the Short List.
