All the hullabaloo aside, Wolf Parade is the genuine article. Modest Mouse's Isaac Brock was so impressed with Wolf Parade he introduced Sub Pop to them and also, along with engineer Chris Chandler, recorded much of Apologies to the Queen Mary.The album is an entirely collaborative effort, reeling headlong and breathless through songs written throughout Wolf Parade's time together as a band. They've spent time on tour with Modest Mouse and The Arcade Fire, played last year's All Tomorrow's Parties festival in California, self-released two limited ed. EPs, and have a song (a cover of Frog Eyes' "Claxxon's Lament") on The Believer magazine's recent covers comp. And then there's this little thing: Time magazine picked Apologies to the Queen Mary as one of "Canada's Most Anticipated Indie Albums Of The Year". Expect to see and hear much more from Wolf Parade.
