Problem child

At the end of February I went to the House of Targ to see Montreal garage rockers Chacal, alongside Ottawa's own Deathsticks and Empty Nesters, who were on first. Here's Eric!

Chacal made me think of American Death Ray, or stuff from the Voodoo Rhythm label. Their new album, Peter Said It Was Problematic, came out the day of this show. Here's guitarist Michel!
