Manitoba

The former alias of Dan Snaith, an electronic musician from Dundas, Ontario, Canada. Snaith renamed himself Caribou in 2004 under threat of an American lawsuit by Richard "Handsome Dick" Manitoba, who had used the surname professionally since the 1970s but has not released any music as a solo artist. Manitoba's critically acclaimed album "Up In Flames" has since been re-released under the Caribou name and listed as such in discographies.

The Souljazz Orchestra

When a band is called The Souljazz Orchestra, there is a certain expectation to uphold that name and to provide a sound that accompanies such a title; this band accomplishes just that and more. Hailing from Ottawa, The Souljazz Orchestra combine jazz, funk, African and Latin music while touching on politics and spirituality. Think - James Brown meets up with Tito Puente and they all hook up to jam at Fela Kuti's house.

Demental

1)Demental is a death metal band from Montreal, Quebec, Canada that was formed in 1999. They mix elements of black/grind too in their music, hence making them sound somewhat different and unique than standard death metal. It can be said that their (only) album Tales of Alienation, released in 2003, is somewhat "experimental" or "weird" death metal. myspace page - http://www.myspace.com/demental 2) Demental is also a thrash metal band from the UK. http://www.myspace.com/dementalmusic
