The ninth performer confirmed, Metric joins previously announced acts Billy Talent, Carly Rae Jepsen, Hannah Georgas, k.d. lang, Marianas Trench, host Michael Bublé, Serena Ryder, and The Sheepdogs. The members of Metric and their newest album Synthetica have collectively earned five JUNO Awards nominations this year, including JUNO Fan Choice Award (presented by TD Bank Group), Group of the Year and Alternative Album of the Year (sponsored by Long & McQuade). For their contributions to Synthetica, Metric lead guitarist and producer James Shaw is also nominated for Jack Richardson Producer of the Year (sponsored by Slaight Music) and art director and designer Justin Broadbent is nominated for Recording Package of the Year. **Media Note** – Photos of THE 2013 JUNO AWARDS performers are available at www.bellmediapr.ca and www.junoawards.ca. "It's been an epic year for Metric and we are so honoured to have been nominated for a total of five JUNOS!” said Emily Haines. “We poured our hearts into Synthetica both in the studio and on the road, so it means the world to us to be included in this year's celebration of Canadian artists. We'll be heading to Saskatchewan straight from Coachella and bringing our very best to the stage in Regina. Looking forward to a memorable night of music!" Also announced today is a very special collaboration between three-time JUNO Award winner Serena Ryder and Toronto rockers Billy Talent. Ryder will take to the stage to perform with Billy Talent on the band’s latest single, “Stand Up and Run.” Ryder is nominated for Single of the Year and Adult Alternative Album of the Year. Billy Talent is nominated for Single of the Year, Group of the Year, and Rock Album of the Year (sponsored by the Musicians' Rights Organization Canada). In the late 2000s, when many bands were being strangled by the industry's power structure, Metric undid all their business entanglements and started their own company, Metric Music International (MMI). Metric has always strived to make their own music, their own way and on their own terms. They released their first full length album, Old World Underground, Where Are You Now in 2003, and it saw the band nominated for their first JUNO Award for Alternative Album Of The Year. They followed with Live It Out in 2005, which racked up another JUNO nomination in 2006 for Alternative Album Of The Year as well as a Polaris Music Prize nomination. Metric’s fourth studio album, Fantasies was shortlisted for 2009 Polaris Prize and secured the band JUNO Award wins for Alternative Album of the Year and Group of the Year in 2010. They released their latest album, Synthetica in June of 2012. The album's lead single, Youth Without Youth broke records in radio in Canada, debuting at #1 and staying there for more than 16 weeks. Metric recently took home a Canadian Screen Award win for their work on David Cronenbergs's Cosmopolis soundtrack. They contributed the lead single to the film Scott Pilgrim vs The World and wrote the Grammy®-nominated theme song for Twilight Saga: Eclipse. They have toured internationally and will be playing back-to-back weekends at Coachella prior to JUNO weekend. Tickets are currently on sale for THE 2013 JUNO AWARDS.

  • The Metanarrative Paradigm
    The Metanarrative Paradigm Adrian M. Nissen, B.A. (hons.) This thesis is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Murdoch University, 2016. i Copyright notice I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work which has not previously been submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. .................................... Adrian M. Nissen ii Abstract The original contribution of this thesis is an examination of how the concept of metanarrative can be used to illuminate shifts in popular thought in the Information Age. There is disagreement over what Information Age paradigms signify, and whether a metanarrative can exist. The postmodern dismissal of metanarrative requires re-examination in the face of understandings that have accompanied contemporary technological advancements. Information technology will be used in this study to explain the movement in globalised culture towards metanarrative understandings as technology is the most broadly visible indicator of human advancement. Branching out from a core literature of media and cultural theorists and internet researchers, I also employ analogous understandings of such a phenomenon from tangential theory including philosophy, psychology and natural science. Observations have been made of a pattern of increased self-referral over recent decades occurring in various disciplines, indicating shifts in the contextualisation of understandings. Our paradigms are becoming more self- conscious as narratives. As humankind’s ideas and capacity to harness understandings of the world continue to develop, we are increasingly engaging with further levels of self-awareness that provide us with the perspective needed for epistemological shifts. This thesis explores the way in which our advancement brings us closer to a meta-textual awareness.

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.

  • Fidlar Self Titled Album Download FIDLAR Download (MP3) Fourteen Slices of Insanely Catchy and Aptly Titled Punk Rock Tunes
    fidlar self titled album download FIDLAR Download (MP3) Fourteen slices of insanely catchy and aptly titled punk rock tunes. The debut album by FIDLAR, recorded and self-produced at the band’s home studio with mixing duties handled by Rob Schnapf (Elliot Smith, Beck, Guided By Voices) is fourteen slices of insanely catchy and aptly titled punk rock tunes. Track list: 1. Cheap Beer 2. Stoked And Broke 3. White On White 4. No Waves 5. Whore 6. Max Can't Surf 7. Black Out Stout 8. Wake Bake Skate 9. Gimme Something 10. 5 to 9 11, LDA 12. Paycheck 13. Wait For The Man 14. Cocaine 15. Awkward. * Praise for FIDLAR * "an electrifying, intensely fun album" 8/10 - NME. "With its Ramones-via-The Golden State garage punk, it's brilliantly noisy in all the best places ('White On White', 'Wait For The Man') and yet not afraid to tone down on occasion ('Gimme Something')." 9/10 - DIY. "The spirit of drunk adolescence, cramped kitchens and broken valuable endures on their frightfully fun debut." 4/5 - Q. Fidlar struggles to break free. “Almost Free” is the third studio album from Los Angeles punk band Fidlar; it released on Jan. 24. Band members Zac Carper, Elvis Kuehn, Max Kuehn and Brandon Schwartzel take some big risks to break free from their familiar punk identity. The band released its debut album in 2013, the self-titled “Fidlar.” It featured a raw, simplistic punk aesthetic inspired by bands like The Offspring, Black Lips and Dead Kennedys. Despite criticism that the record was lyrically and musically one dimensional, the band’s potential for writing a great punk song was clear, and people started to take notice.
