| Influences: | "This Montreal group will likely blow your mind" CJAM Windsor/Detroit "A deep, innovative, and remarkable record" The Weakerthans' John K. Samson DNTO, CBC radio "Big and Bouncy" Exclaim Magazine " Just when you think Montreal’s total creative potential has been entirely invested in the city’s indie rock scene, a band like the National Parcs come along and tear that assumption apart." James Sandham Spill Magazine "Si KRS-One avait grandi à Chicoutimi, voilà ce qu’il aurait produit" DJ Barney "The foundation of the imaginative mix of global folk and laidback ghetto grooves here is rhythms ’n’ bits cobbled out of sounds sourced way out in the woods—sticks and stones, quite literally. The process is best explained through the accompanying DVD, which offers a video for every track and doubles as an artful explanation of their M.O. The innovative process is plenty cool, but are the results a good listen? Hell, yeah—the memorable material ranges from goofy rap and folk-funk fun to poignant twilight ruminations. 8/10" Rupert Bottenberg Music Editor Montreal Mirror "Jug-band-hip-hop? Bluegrass electro? You might find yourself searching for new descriptives after hearing the debut by Montreal's The National Parcs, featuring three members of now-defunct nature-inspired electronica act Freeworm. Recorded in the wilderness (with the accompanying DVD to prove it), this disc is rife with new sounds - thumping along to Afro-Caribbean, hip-hop and techno-type rhythms, with spiritual-derived harmonies, bluesy turns, fast-talking raps and an infectious energy that makes you want to stomp your feet, clap your hands, and dance! Totally original, and thoroughly invigorating. Rating 4 1/2 Stars" T'CHA DUNLEVY Montreal Gazette "The DVD’s direction is so stunning that if you didn’t already appreciate the songs by listening to them, you definitely will after seeing how they were recorded in the outdoors... Ultimately, whatever genre you try to peg Timbervision in is irrelevant; The National Parcs have taken the streets to the cedars, and given us the best of both worlds." Kristina De Guzman The Gateway "Je reviens au Cercle pour entendre la fin du 1er spectacle À VIE du groupe The National Parcs. Un seul mot : plaisir! Autant dans la foule que sur la scène. Les membres du groupes ont le sourire fendu jusqu’aux oreilles, dansent, interagissent avec la foule et entre eux avec l’aisance d’un groupe qui vient de se taper une tournée mondiale." Élodie Gagnon, Bandeapart "The evening was a full aural and visual feast!" Eva Blue, 33mag.com |
