Easyboy – Lovefool (Ballchain edit) 2

It’s always a pleasant surprise when we hear some new Easyboy, since we assumed Eric Farber moved on to his punkier pastures with his other project Cellphone. Occasionally though, stuff like this reworking of The Cardigans Lovefool gets thrown into the ether of the internet for out listening pleasure. We’re certainly glad that it was.

New Release: Easyboy – Mirror Killer

Posted on October 25th, by arp2600 in New Release


Easyboy – Friends Like Bowie
Easyboy – Rabid Resource

Toronto’s Easyboy has been somewhat dormant as of late, probably because they have been focusing on their also excellent side-project Cellphone. Suddenly, out from the ether comes a new EP, which sounds pretty damn fine. There are only 300 copies made of this special 7″ vinyl, and it can be purchased from Spooky Town Records.

Video? Easyboy – Owners Manual

Posted on August 31st, by arp2600 in Video

Well, technically it IS a video. Moresso, it’s an awesome song from Toronto’s Easyboy, who did a show with us last November. It was good times! Where have these guys been? We suggest they make more music.
