Albums

Macho

  • Macho documents the group from its very beginnings with a number of its singles and some new and some not widely available tracks.
  • Michael Douglas was the muse for Black Rain, one of 10 tracks on their latest collection, Macho. (Douglas also starred in a 1991 crime film of the same name.) “The movie’s great and Michael Douglas is an icon,” smiles Darren Veres. It’s obviously a huge joke,” adds Jered Stuffco.
  • Recorded and mixed in Edmonton via computer—the disc required patience, humor and, above all, high-speed internet connections and trust. Some songs required two weeks of edits and dozens of e-mails between band mates.

    I said man, can you help me out?
    Bring me back to love
    Bring me back to life
    Oh why should I care?
    I said how, could you keep me out?
    Without a wish to share
    So without a doubt
    Oh why should I care?
    Well we have been warned
    It's a classic sign
    It's a wicked mind
    With an axe to grind
    Oh when is it our, our turn
    So why should we care, care, care?
    Yeah we have been warned
    It's a classic sign
    Why should we care?
    If this is our last summer
    Oh then why should we care?
    If this could be our last summer
