Canadian garage rock is a raucous and gritty subgenre of rock music that emerged from Canada's vibrant underground scene. Characterized by its raw, lo-fi sound and energetic, DIY ethos, this genre harks back to the rebellious spirit of 1960s garage rock while infusing it with a distinctly modern twist. The music often features fuzz-laden guitar riffs, pounding rhythms, and unpolished, impassioned vocals that convey a sense of immediacy and authenticity. Thematically, the lyrics range from irreverent and whimsical to introspective, with an undercurrent of youthful disenchantment. Bands such as The Tandoori Knights, The Pack a.d., and Dead Ghosts exemplify the garage rock sound with their garagey vibes and unvarnished live performances, embodying the genre's preference for spontaneity and rough-around-the-edges charm.
