Toronto – Named after one of my favorite Street Fighter moves, Hadouken is a dance rock band from Leeds. They excel in that kinda nu rave genre that is all the rage in england these days, and their concerts will probably make anyone who goes feel old. Even if you are 12. Yup. You might have heard of them last year, as they had some success with the songs ‘Tuning In’ and ‘Liquid Lives’. A great ‘Tuning In’ Remix was on the always great Kitsune Maison Compilation last year as well.
Anyways, I think this band has some moderate promise and I have enjoyed their tunes. They have a new album called ‘Music For An Accelerated Culture’ dropping in a month or two and here is a single off of it – its got a great title. Its called ‘Declaration of War’ and its a lot better then the emo sounding ‘leap of faith’ song from a few months ago.
PS. This is probably coincidence but man does the opening riff of the song sound like the opening riff of the Spain song ‘Easy Lover’ Check it out.

Hmm there’s a Tim Horton’s in Jane and Finch. Does that mean we’re not considered the ghetto anymore? :O
