Whatever Happened to Corduroy?

Whatever Happened to Corduroy? Good question. I still have a pair of cords in my closet - dark blue, with pleats. The pleats kinda bum me out and since I can’t sew I have no idea how to get rid of them. Still they’re comfy as hell. Speaking of comfy feelings, listening to Toronto’s Whatever Happened to Corduroy? is like wearing those pants, only without the pleats. If your love of power-pop /melodic alt-rock makes you dress in loud, ugly all-over prints that would have made 1992-era MC Hammer nod in approval, and occasionally cut yourself “just to feel something,” you will thank me for this link. Their EP is available for sale here.

Ontario rock fans take note of theri upcoming shows, which I have posted after the jump. (more…)
