On Saturday, January 17th, I took the 55 bus through the frigid, negative-something weather, and wound up in front of Metropolis to be greeted by a swarm of black t-shirted, long haired fans -the tell tale signs of any self-respecting metal show.

As I walked into the Cabaret du Musée on Monday, December 8 to see the Mercury Rev, I wondered to myself, "I wonder how they are going to pull off "The Dark is Rising?" This fan favourite track is representative of the band's sound: dramatic, over-the-top orchestration with dynamics that keep the listener at the song's mercy. I am pleased to report that the show did not fall short of the standard set by the band's recordings.

"I love you!” “Oh my god he’s so hot” “Cope I want to have your babies!”

In a split second it looked like it could be 1992 when Chris Cornell took the stage Sunday night, what with the grey jeans and grunge like beige and grey plaid shirt he was wearing.  Yet the song he started with, “Part of Me,” from his new, Timbaland produced Scream Album, is anything but grunge.
