Over our four years or so as a band we have been fortunate enough to share the stage with such bands as The Cult, Franz Ferdinand, Hot Hot Heat, Metric, The Bravery, TV On the Radio, Glass Candy, Erase Errata, Panthers, Sloan, The Stills, VHS or Beta, These Arms Are Snakes, The Fever, Ok Go, I Love You But I've Chosen Darkness, The Rogers Sisters, Numbers, American Analog Set, Sons and Daughters, The Cribs, Big Business, Out Hud, The Unicorns, Oxes, Esthero, Uncut, Death From Above 1979, You Say Party! We Say Die! and any number of other bands that may or may not sound anything like us.
This Toronto-area band formed in the fall of 2002 when guitarist Ronnie Morris was seeking members for a group. From there, drummer Jeff Scheven and Colwyn Llewellyn-Thomas joined. After deciding to add a second guitarist, the group added Scott Kaija, and Morris moved to bass. But the group took shape when lead singer Nirmala Basnayake, a friend who hung out at the band's early jam sessions, joined. Basnayake's Debbie Harry-like vocals went over well during the group's shows in Toronto in the early part of 2003. After performing at the North by Northeast Festival and becoming critical darlings among Toronto-area critics, the band was signed to Paper Bag Records, the label that launched bands such as Broken Social Scene and Stars. In early 2004, the group released their debut EP, History, featuring seven dance-inspired tracks. The group also headlined various shows as well as opened for Franz Ferdinand among others. In 2005, the group toured Britain with fellow Canadian band Death from Above 1979. Their second album, X-Amounts, followed in March 2006.

Der Donnerstag im K17 ist dunkel und elektronisch: Wir schicken euch mit EBM, Synth-Pop und Industrial ins vorgezogene Wochenende. Exklusiv für unsere Myspace Freunde setzen wir noch ein Freigetränk oben drauf: Einfach diese Seite ausdrucken, mitbringen und freuen.
Am kommenden Mittwoch lädt das K17 zum fröhlichen zelebrieren der Wochenmitte. Da geht es nicht hip oder cool, sondern vor allem lustig zu: Bei Indie, 80s, Wave und NDW darf zu fröhlichen Liedern albern rumgewackelt, der DJ nach dem Lieblingslied angebettelt und der Stress der Woche mal vergessen werden. Dabei unterstützen wir euch mit wöchentlich wechselnden Cocktailangeboten ab 2 Euro. Und K17-Myspace Freunde können sich das auch dicke leisten: Die kommen nämlich mit dem Ausdruck dieser Seite ganz für lau rein.
