New Wave Post Punk Wave

A sonic crash where style meets substance, and attitude meets atmosphere. This collection dives deep into Canada’s wave-driven underground—where angular guitars, icy synths, and restless energy redefined punk and reshaped pop. From the art-school edges of New Wave to the introspective shadows of Post-Wave and the raw pulse of Punk Wave, these tracks capture a scene in flux, bursting with invention and edge. Cool, quirky, and unapologetically bold—this is the sound of the future, past and present.
