Best of 2017 #3: Whimm - A Stare Ajar (Independent)

As life continues to kick my ass, I finally get back to the 2017 countdown. And as luck would have it, this band already has a new EP out, so there's that.

Whimm are a relatively new Canadian band, hailing from Toronto. They're an anthemic noise-rock band, melodic in parts, spacy in parts, and pummelling like METZ in parts. Their debut full length is an immensely enjoyable, tense and driving noise-rock excursion that holds up to multiple listens.
