Best Canadian Bands/Artists (new)
The Best of Canadian music (new, as in acts from 1990's to present, the "er" stuff)This band has perfected their own Canadian alt. rock style even better then Theory of a Deadman in my opinion. Hell this band got me into alt. rock and was the first band that actually got me in rock music. Great band and they definitely are more kick ass then Rush!
OBVIOUSLY. There's absolutely no doubt about that. I like Nickelback, they're really good but Adam Gontier and the other member make me alive. They are my own drug.
The best band in the world by far. With so many different sounds and views and vocal task. This is the band in Canada completely. And defenintly r one of the best bands in the world.
No duh! I love every TDG song I've heard so far, though honestly, Break should be the number one song on their list, because it is absolutely AMAZING! I also love Riot and Pain
I have to say that Billy Talent is my absolute fave! Their lyrics are so powerful and creative that it makes me wish that I could come up with the amazing songs that they write, Fallen Leaves, Man Alive, Hanging By a Thread and Red Flag are some of the greatest songs I have ever listened to!
I can't describe how much I love this band. Every single song of them is amazing. My favourite is White Sparrows.
Best band ever! Bloody Nails and Broken Hearts is such an awesome song! I also love their Pezz stuff from before they were Billy talent!
Billy Talent and Simple plan are the best Band's ever!
Sum 41 the best Canadian modern band, and what the hell is simple plan doing on the list, if anything they're bad to Canada
Extremely talented band capable of playing a variety of styles
Listen No Reason, Some Say or Underclass Hero.
Three days Grace will soon become my favorite but because Nickelback have been my favorite for so long I will vote them. I am Australian and all my favorite bands are from Canada, you guys rock!
How can anyone like those deeply sexist, right-wing rednecks, that made one song and copied it a thousand times over the years..
All their song sound the same.
I love Nickelback his voice, music quality... I being from India where bands like nirvana, lp, etc play their lead role, I love this band, don't know why...
Nickleback's old album are awesome because its real rock (included their new album Dark Horse). Stop just listening to their pop song and start listening to the real Nicklback!
SHOULD BE AT THE TOP 3! Their amazingly awesome and hot and rocks! Why do you guys put them at no. 4? This is so unfair!
So many people can relate to Simple Plan's honest lyrics, from hurting teens to people in relationships.
As much as I love some of the other bands and artists on this list, Simple Plan is simply the best.
after listening to all their songs, some of them are very sad and meaningful.
saw her concert few years ago, simply AMAZING!
she just keeps getting better and better!
Thanks not how you spell it.
The best example of the kind of Jewel that can only spring from indie rock. Incredibly talented musicians, intricate and multi-layered musical compositions, powerful lyrics and fantastic vocals that create a hauntingly beautiful and emotional experience. Three albums and not a single weak song. My absolute favorite canadian band!
Original and compelling, Arcade Fire created a kind of music all their own, and they deserve so much more credit than all of the cliche, packaged music listed before them.
How in the sweet hell can Nickleback be above Arcade Fire?
They have a song called whatever it's really good it was chris benoit's theme song before his disturbing tragedy despite that fact that song ROCKS! My favorite song by this band.
I like billy talent a lot but in my opinion Our lady peace is just better
I love Raine Maida's voice. Its so unique.
Have you guys even heard their CD maroon, not a SINGLE mediocre song in that album!
even if they are not voted the best, they are still the funniest
Their lyrics are meaningful and all about life and it's challenges. Jacob's voice is amazing and uniquely stands out from many other artists. How are they in 9th place? They deserve 1st easy!
Marianas Trench is the best Canadian band in... Canada. They should be way up high on the list. They have such a great sound and their songs are meaningful and not like that repeating crap you hear these days.
My computer is broken AGAIN. I really need to get a new computer. Because my computer says Marianas Trench is 24th on the list. I'm going to get my computer fixed now...
Should be number one! Most underrated band because all it takes is a listen to realize this is band is music perfection
How can this not be higher! Best band in lyrics, vocals, melody, personality, meaning---Should really be number 1!
Well Thousand Foot Krutch is obviously the best because TFK is like Eminem, Linkin Park, and Skillet All combined, except better. By the way why isn't Hawk Nelson on this list? Hawk Nelson is extremely good even better than TFK. And Why is Justin Beaver the 12 year old little girl ahead of Thousand Foot Krutch on this list?
TFK is a great band, my favorite actually. I like how they are Christian rockers because that's basically all I listen to. If you guys like TFK, try: Skillet, Disciple, and Fm Static. Those are my favorites. Go TFK!
Why is Justin Bieber here? She should be at the bottom!
Justin Bieber should be at the top
Justin Bieber is awesome
My second favorite Canadian band only band that tops them is TDG.
How are they below Justin Beiber
I love this band. 100%
GREAT BAND... best in canada by a long shot. Unlike those Theory of a Nickleback bands, this band actually makes art... not pop rock dribble
They have the most amazing instrumentals ever. They are maybe a little bit to heavy for my liking but they're still amazing. Probably one of the most skilled bands ever
Seriously, who are the other people voting for?
Awesome band and I'm not even Canadian!
How is Justin Bieber higher.
Celine Dion's voice is far superior to everyone else's voice on this list.
