“Come On, Let’s Go!”
Burlington, Ontario
Power pop/ Rock
The Members
Paul- Vocals/Guitar
Andrew-Bass/Vocals
Logan- Drums
The Sound
“Come On, Let’s Go!” creates uplifting, upbeat party music. While listening to them you can’t help but get up and dance, or at least tap your foot along with the beat. A very excellent and talented band, worth checking them out.
The Background
“Come On, Let’s Go!”, formed for one reason and one reason only, to provide people with the joy of their music. They have been playing shows and are working on a new EP. The release date and other related information can be found at comeonletesgo.ca.
The Review
After listening to many songs by “Come On, Let’s Go”, I can say that I have become a fan. Whether it be the addicting instrumentals or the rather intriguing vocals, this band will have you hooked in a matter of minutes.
Touching on the bands vocals for a moment, they reminded me of what you would hear in a punk rock type of band, in that they have that, for lack of a better word, “whiney” sound to them. Not that this takes away from the band, in fact, I believe it adds some separation and uniqueness to them, which is always a good thing in my opinion.
I am looking forward to their EP, expected to be out soon. I know that these guys will put out a solid record as they are all amazing musicians.

A.O.T.M February- "A Story Left Untold"
“A Story Left Untold”
Queens/Long Island, New York
The Members
Michelle- Vocals
Alex- Guitar
Joseph- Guitar
Sean- Bass
Nick- Drums
The Sound
The bands sound is sprawled out over several genres including alternative, pop, punk and rock. The only way to truly describe their sound is a combination of all these genres, which makes for a unique sound that is tough to compare.
The Background
“A Story Left Untold” formed in November of 2010. Since then, they have played many a show and shared the stage with many different bands. In 2012, they still plan to tour like mad, good news for fans of the band. In July of 2011, their debut album was released, entitled, “Forgetting Something Unforgettable”.
The Review
After listening to “ Forgetting Something Unforgettable” right through a number of times. I have reached many a conclusion. First and foremost, they generally play a rather upbeat style of music. Combine this with the very talented vocals of Michelle and you have a catchy band that can captivate the listener and make them an instant fan.
Approaching the band blindly, I can say I did not know what to expect from them. After hearing the intro to “Hallows”, I can truly say I was hooked, intrigued to listen to the rest of the tracks. Most of the album contains mainly upbeat tracks, as I can fairly say was expected, yet there are a few exceptions. “Life Points” has a softer sound to it, which breaks up the album nicely. In addition it is a true showcase of the vocal talents of the band.
All in all, the band has put out a solid record, with amazing vocals and a nice balance of instrumentals, nothing overpowers another. “Forgetting Something Unforgettable” is entirely worth the money to buy on either iTunes or Amazon. Personally, I can not wait to see what the band comes up with next although they sure have their work cut out for them, as their debut album will be a hard act to follow.

For this contest, readers will be voting on their favourite band and then certain ones will be eliminated until we have one left. Our A.O.T.M has been picked, the write up on them should be posted by the middle of the week, so be sure to look for that.
Spring and summer are popular times for concerts and tours. If you are in a band or know of a band touring this season, we would love to know so we can help and promote the tour. You can either get a hold of us in the comments below, by sending us an email, or finding us on Twitter.
In addition, we are looking for bands avaliable for a short interview in the coming weeks. Once again you can get a hold of us with the ways listed above.
