CITY: Newfoundland
RIYL: The Stooges, The Birthday Party
Incredible, an Newfoundland born band now based in Montreal, has been active in the Canadian music scene since the early 2000's. They've played an integral role in spearheading the St. John's arts community. With their debut record "Incredible", Incredible Woman is broadcasting Newfoundland punk in its finest form to the rest of the world.
Start to finish, "Incredible" is unstoppable. Described by front man and songwriter Derm Kean as "well disguised pop hits", the band wastes no time drenching its audience in squealing guitars, ripping bass, bombast drums and a tasteful dash of synthesizer. Derm's vocal prowess may take one of many forms, from fluent hometown punk particularity to harmonic, dynamically tiered ballads.
