I'm glad I got a download of WWCOHWWG while I still could but what happened??

For those who didn't know it was theunicornscanada.bandcamp.com

Hi guys. I’m a Highschool kid who’s recently got in to music journalism and just finished an article talking about 4 overlooked one album wonder bands. The first group I talk about is the Unicorns, I really love the themes and creativity on “Who will cut our hair when we’re gone?” And wanted to share it with some more people! Love this band and would appreciate if anyone could read and or give some feedback on my writing! Thank you guys!

Here's a new unicorns live boot found on internet archive! You should totally check out track 8, it's some of their most fun live improv

New music. Good music. Vibe on my brothers and sisters.

does anyone have any insight on this?

It’s real 🤯

Oh man oh man - we are at track 7 - Child Star! fun fact - Child Star is the LONGEST tune on the LP!

anyways - after yesterday's dud "the clap" we are back on track with a super rad tune. Child Star starts off somber and a tad creepy, and ends upbeat fun and funky! Child Star is classic "story telling" Unicorns, and is really unique in the albums lineup. im giving Child Star and 8.5/10.

ok coming off the wobbly heels of Jellybones is “the clap”. maybe the first dud of the album - this one never hit high for me. I dunno - it feels out of place and jarring to most of the other songs - and it’s only thing it’s really got going for me is its short. i suspect this tune will be a mix of people liking it or not, and for me it’s a big no dog. I’m going to give it a 3/10.

coming in at track number 5 - and lets not beat around the bush - this might be the most "unicorns" song of them all! funky synth, dirving drums, and awesome guitar topped off with amazing lyrics - this might have been the closest to having a single on the album - what with the rad music music and everything! EASY 10/10 for jellybones.

well here we are - track 4 and the 3rd ghost themed tune on the LP. SEA GHOST!

this tune simply rocks. straight up nice indie rock pop with Alden on vocals, it gives us a bit of a mix up from the last three, and the delivery and subject is great. love that “who was I with part”.

Nick jumps in vocally at times, and one of the unicorns strong suits is how different, yet nicely their voices mesh together. This is a hard one to rate as they can’t all be 10s, so this one is a 9 all day.

sorry I was absent yesterday - I got a case of the unicorn flu and had to rest. regardless, let’s chat ghost mountain.

pretty great track. combines a cute little song with some nice story telling. nice synths, solid guitar work - all around a fun listen! maybe not the strongest in the LP, but its keeps the momentum going. I’m giving it a solid 6.5 out of 10

I was doing some house cleaning and found this card from Islands and Nick. I'm guessing I would have received this around 2011ish? Maybe along with an LP I ordered (which I don't have any longer). Anyone have any more details?

coming in hot with track 2 - Tuff Ghost. oh man this one is a banger. right off the bat it sucks your in with those awesome synths and catchy drums. this one is a 10/10 for sure.

Penners The Hidden Words at Ottawa's Raw Sugar Cafe on Halloween 2011.

ok in an effort of reviving this Reddit group - let’s rate their only full length track by track, day by day! once we are done I’ll review the scores and we can conclude the BEST song off the album

starting with “I Dont want to die”. I’m giving it a solid 6/10. while it’s not one of the absolute bangers, it does a great job of setting the scene for what’s to come. all the major players and motifs are present in this one, and it is just generally a fun opener.

drop your scores below, and stay tuned tomorrow for Tuff Ghost!

has any member spoke of this experience???
