Every town has at least one band that seems to want nothing more than to sound like Radiohead circa 1997. In Montréal, Karkwa fills that role but unlike most Radiohead clones, they’re quite good at what they do. They’ve got the right amount of stadium rock bombast, they write strong melodies and their tunes are densely and expertly layered. Some of their songs feature toy pianos and xylophones quite prominently, which gives them an ethereal, Sigur Rós-like feel. They may not be the most original band in Montréal but they’re still one of the best to watch.
