two Canadian shoegaze / space-rock / dreampop bands on
Sonic Unyon Records

SIANSPHERIC (Toronto) sianspheric.com
after a decade of isolation in the Great North, this band embarks on
their
first real US tour ever! from the early 90s, this group has been
recognized
by fans of atmospheric rock as the Canadian equivalent to the likes of
My Bloody Valentine, Slowdive, Chapterhouse, Lush, & the like. Everyone
who used
to go to those Lowsunday shows - do not miss this!!

A NORTHERN CHORUS (Hamilton, ON) anorthernchorus.com
"The beautiful Gothic prints wrapping the sophomore album from
ANC foreshadow the artistic accomplishment inside. Their wordsmithing
makes them stand out among their shoegazey peers, ahd the sleeve art
acts a picture book of prints to complement their lyrical narratives.
The
soothing soundscapes of dreampop guitar and lush, meandering vocals
make this followup to their Spirit Flags debut awe-inspiring." - Now
