"Hit The Wall" - Broken Social Scene


It was almost as if the excitement in the air over the next Broken Social Scene album was palpable in the air. After Kevin Drew's unprecedented success with Spirit If..., the co-release of the first in the series of Broken Social Scene Presents... albums, fans have been nearly begging for the next album the Social Scene is going to endow upon us avid listeners.

Well the wait is dwindling down as the debut date of July 22nd gets ever closer to the release of the next album in their series, Broken Social Scene Presents Brendan Canning: Something For All Of Us... Broken Social Scene may be wandering like gadabouts in Istanbul on their international tour, but it was as if they could feel the anticipation raising. And thus, they delivered. Now on their Myspace is the first single from the new album, "Hit The Wall." Quick, intense, progressive, and undeniably cool!

Other announcements have been leaking out of the air-tight secret that is Something For All Of Us... include cover art, tracklists, and collaborators. I'll let those eager readers who are so inclined hunt for the tracklisting on their own, but let it be known that we'll be hearing the likes of many amazing Canadian musicians, including: Kevin Drew, Jason Collett, Ohad Benchetrit (Do May Say Think), Amy Millan (Stars), James Shaw (Metric), and many more. You can find "Hit The Wall" on either Brendan Canning's Myspace, or the Myspace for Broken Social Scene. Don't miss it.
