We will remain faceless because we refuse the spectacle of celebrity, because we are everyone, because the carnival beckons, because the world is upside down, because we are everywhere. By wearing masks we show that who we are is not as important as what we do, and what we do is for everyone." - Anonymous A Canadian band that flaunts it with album titles such as 2002's "Marathon of Hope", 2003's "This Nation's Saving Face", and 2005's "Just Watch Us", it's obvious that their roots are a strong part of the Vulcan Dub Squad's identity.
A Canadian band that flaunts it with album titles such as 2002's "Marathon of Hope", 2003's "This Nation's Saving Face", and 2005's "Just Watch Us", it's obvious that their roots are a strong part of the Vulcan Dub Squad's identity.
Starting out as a predominantly instrumental-ambient 3 piece (1997), The Vulcans later grew with experience and personnel to encompass a larger scope of melody based songs. Embracing more variety and breadth of influence, The Vulcans released their 2nd album in 1999, a sound of you've just about got it. This paved the way for 'This Nations Saving Face' which is the Squad's widely released and acclaimed album of 2003. This success laid the foundations for their latest offering 'Just Watch Us' (2005), a self recorded/produced masterpiece that melds a lo-fi, AM-radio styled wrapping to songs lush with vocal melodies and densely layered arrangements that sonically fall somewhere between the notes of The Kinks, The Free Design and Godspeed! You Black Emperor.
