<br>Speaking of Nash the Slash, I'm trying to find a copy of "Magic in Your Eyes" (Was that by FM or Nash the Slash solo?) Does anyone have an mp3 of that, or a video perhaps, if one exists?

Edited to add, I'm also looking for some Neo a4 (Band from Edmonton, I believe). Both these treasures are proving difficult to find.

Sudden Death records has just reissued the early 80s comp "Vancouver Complication" which is a pretty great mix of punk & new wave from that area. You get songs from DOA, Subhumans, K Tels, Active Dog, Dishrags, Rude Norton & a ton of others. Good place to start checking out some older Canadian bands. They also have reissues from the Pointed Sticks, Young canadians, Modernettes & many others. They seem to have taken up the slack since the OPM label folded a few years ago.

Which of these groups would be considered New Wave (as opposed to punk)?

I'd say that the Young canadians, Pointed Sticks and Modernettes would all be considered power pop. There's not really any synth type new wave, but some very cool stuff nonetheless. I tend to blur the line between punk & new wave quite a bit I guess.
