Song of the Week: Dec 20 – Dec 26
Song of the Week December 27th, 2009

No posts all week? What the Jesus?! Well that’s it exactly! Everyone’s favourite imaginary friend had another birthday and to celebrate the occasion, the A-K kids spent our time eating icing-covered treats. Long story short, it’s SONG OF THE WEEK TIME! YES!
I’m just gonna skip the pre-amble and tell you what for! Our Song of the Week is Carolina by local four-piece The Shilohs and we picked it because the song, like the band, is balls-out amazing. How so? Well in less than a year The Shilohs got together, wrote a pile of great songs, played a bunch of shows, recorded an incredible full-length demo LP that may never officially see the light of day* and are now hard at work on their first 7″.
Featured on the upcoming release is our Song of the Week and if you’re like me and desperately need something to wash out the cacophony of Christmas carols you’ve been subjected to, you couldn’t ask for a better little rocker than this one. Everything about Carolina is great, but what I really love is the vocal pauses in lines like “Lost my way to Georgia / Flew into Atlanta / Tryin’ to make the bu-us on time! / She’s on my mi-iii-ind!”
