great. Soft Airplane was my “album of 2008″. Neil Young meets Thurston Moore meets John Cage. I’ve had the honour to interview the multi-talented Canadian too: interesting, friendly loner. Hope he will totally break through this year!

nice to see some love for chad on the drunkard. ’soft airplane’ was my favourite album of last year. does anyone agree that it is the first time that chad actually put together an album, as opposed to a collection of songs?

if flemish eye keeps it up they’ll be giving blue fog recordings a run as my favourite canadian label. the now defunct three gut records will always have a place in my heart.

i’ve been loving a handful of women tracks for a few months, but haven’t picked up the album just yet.

Having listened to both, I loved VanGaalen’s Soft Airplane. But I was mesmerized by Women’s debut album. It is wonderfully lo-fi and, as previously mentioned, reminiscent of late 80s and early 90s indie, but refreshed and updated for 2008/2009. Women’s self-titled debut definitely garnered consideration for any top 10 lists of the best albums of 2008.

I am very glad that Chad VanGaalen and Women are taking back Calgary’s good name from profiteering oil barons.
