Chatham Connection:Mainman Matt Antaya is from Chatham-Kent.
Notes: Ask founding member Matt Antaya about his alt-rock band Self Cynic and his answer may surprise you. Songwriter and lead singer, Antaya, conceived his project as perhaps the opposite of a band. Self Cynic is an evolving experiment whose rotating lineup aims to demonstrate that a collection of songs will communicate their character despite varying musicians and arrangements.
Matt began writing music at age 12, then went on to University (Waterloo) and spent allot of time working in studios, eventually making his way to Montreal.
Tracks: 01. Goodbye 02. The Next Room 03. Misbehave 04. In My Head 05. Mona Lisa 06. Stone Throw 07. All Around 08. Never Change 09. Try It Again 10. Evil Freedom 11. Already Gone 12. Left Behind 04:19
Notes: Lesser Known was heading into the direction of Metal with strong hints of rap induced play. All bands could learn a thing or two about presentation from them. They were probably the best run indie band in Canada. Do It Yourself motto in full swing with great posters, band fanzines, website and studio blogs, posters, merch, media, great production, you name it. They had all that perfected 10 years before anyone else could spell check their own bio.
Back in the day, Spaz was a leading force with his emotional stage presence, sucking you in to the secret circle that was the Lesser Known Zone. He had mastered this with his previous band D.N.A. which also included some members from the current band.
Tracks: 01. Prestus Recordus 02. Weak Like You 03. Wa Zup 04. My Time 05. Come… In With The Dead 06. Sweat On Command 07. Freestyle Dis 08. Shattered Fantasy 09. Looking In My Brain 10. Getting Into It 11. Bring An Open Mind

The Scoop: 3 Fast paced start to finish time bombed, ‘cocked & loaded’ tracks thrown head first down your throat dealing with everything from money, to booze, to telling ‘the man’ just where to go. Room Without a View drops this limited edition EP the whole family can drink to, I mean enjoy.
