Jonas & The Massive Attraction Big Slice

2012, yet another great band out of Montreal is gaining popularity and getting set to bring their rock to the rest of Canada and the world. Jonas Tomalty began his music career as a solo act performing in various bars in Montreal, then in 2004 he toured with Van Halen and in 2005 released his first album. After being nominated for two Juno awards ("Rock Album of The Year" and "New Artist of The Year") and releasing a second album in 2006, Jonas decided to create this new band to highlight the fact that his music has never been a solo endeavour. The band cites influences such as Kings of Leon, Aerosmith, The Killers, AC/DC, and U2, and I would say they are more on the AC/DC or Aerosmith side of that list. This album is full of beautifully crafted songs with a strong, filled-out sound and lots of emotion that make a very solid album for this group.
