About Richard Brunette
Richard Brunette was raised on 90s music. He vowed that he wouldn’t become one of those people who told kids music was way better back in his day, but alas he often finds himself thinking it. His first album review was Sublime’s eponymous album, and his first concert review was Pantera at Metropolis. Can you blame him for thinking it? He digs rock and metal above all, but has an open mind for anything done well and creatively. He still holds hope that the new Tool album will be released before the Expos come back to his hometown of Montreal. He is the author of a critically acclaimed novel titled the Feathered Serpent. It centers on the mythology of angels and demons and the redemption of Lucifer. He is also the captain of a pirate ship quartermastered by fellow Buckethead Jason Greenberg.
Albums

David Usher – Let It Play

November 17, 2016 Richard Brunette 0

9/10 David Usher has done it all. He started off in 1992 as a Canadian grunge icon fronting the band, Moist. He first stepped outside the band to record the brilliant solo debut Little Songs, […]

Albums

Bloody Death – End Call

October 26, 2016 Richard Brunette 3

3.5/10 At its best, End Call by British artist Bloody Death sounds like songs J. Masics left on the cutting room floor of a Dinosaur Jr jam session. At its worst, it sounds like song […]

Albums

Extra Kool – Eight

October 19, 2016 Richard Brunette 0

7.5/10 Denver, Colorado musicians Extra Kool’s name isn’t the only thing that will make you think this is 1992; his style and flow will too. He is apologetically a student of what many consider to […]

Quebec

Tom Odell with Barns Courtney – Live at Corona Theatre – October 10th, 2016 – Montreal, QC

October 10, 2016 Richard Brunette 0

I feel I should preface this concert review by saying it was written by a jaded old man who grew up in the nineties and is pretty sure that the children of today have doomed […]

Featured Artist: The Agonist

October 1, 2016 Richard Brunette 0

Losing a vocalist can often spell the end for a band. Montreal melodic metal outfit The Agonist parted ways with original vocalist Alissa White-Gluz in 2014. Rather than take a step back, the band scoured […]

Quebec

Solids, Slow Mass, Mundy’s Bay, and Slight – Live at la Vitrola – September 24th, 2016 – Montreal, QC

September 24, 2016 Richard Brunette 0

Pop Montreal is a great way to get out there and discover new music. The festival has done a great job of promoting local music since its inception, and every year I feel it’s my […]

Richard’s Rants: The Tragically Hip – A Truly National Celebration

August 29, 2016 Richard Brunette 0

A few weeks back, upon learning of Gord Downie’s illness and The Tragically Hip‘s  Man Machine Poem Tour most likely being their last, I wrote a piece about what the band means to Canada, suggesting […]

Richard’s Rants: Making Rage Rage Again

August 24, 2016 Richard Brunette 0

A few months back, I wrote a rant about Rage Against the Machine and the hypocrisy of their self-imposed exile. I blamed it mostly on Zach… okay, pretty much entirely on Zach. Now, I’m not […]

Albums

Villain Villain – Dehmos

August 22, 2016 Richard Brunette 0

5/10 Vancouver, BC band, Villain Villain, is certainly a juxtaposition of eras. While their influences seem to be all over the map, their strongest sources of inspiration are heavily rooted in the surf music of […]

Albums

Rearviewmirror: Remembering the 90s – Moist – Silver

July 23, 2016 Richard Brunette 0

90s Score: 8.5/10 2016 Score: 9/10 The name Moist makes many women shiver. For some, it’s the mere mention of the word that does it, while for others, it’s the thought of lead singer David […]
