Counterrevolutionaries

The underground got overcrowded.

Born in an East Van alley – the love child of a folkie, a funker, a rocker and a punk – the band that would become counterrevolutionaries took its first shot of jager with a beer chaser and never looked back. Four Canadian tours, three albums and a slew of horn players later, counterrevolutionaries remain one of the country’s favourite unsung heroes of the underground. The great ones always die young. But hey, what could be more rock and roll than that?

 “Canada’s best band you’ve never heard of.” - 24 Hours

“Counterrevolutionaries combine meaty, fuzz-drenched chords, a taut, dive-bar-tested rhythm section, and wayward tales of small-town characters and cross-country treks into fierce rock ‘n’ roll shows and untrendy, Neil Young-and-Crazy-Horse-influenced epics.” - Georgia Straight

  “Merging a hard-rocking pace with rapid-fire vocals , this is Canadian music at its best.” - Hour Magazine
