Hear the Week's Best New Canadian Music: Nelly Furtado, Our Lady Peace, the Beaches, Naomi

Our Lady Peace are celebrating 30(!) years as a band with new single "Sound the Alarm," and the Beaches reckon with idolatry on "Jocelyn," while Quebecois star-in-the-making Naomi leads her new album with a "Good Trip."

This week in album releases, long-awaited new records from Nelly Furtado (7) and Sunset Rubdown (Always Happy to Explode) have finally arrived after respective seven- and 15-year waits, as well as LPs from Halifax DIY scene-stealer Kelly McMichael (After the Sting of It), P:ano (ba ba ba), daysormay, JJ Wilde and Kim Beggs.

Elsewhere, Pantayo's Louie Sanchez strikes out on their own, but Sunnsetter isn't alone in feeling fear coming in waves. Meanwhile, Dorothea Paas returns bearing "Autumn Roses," and Housewife is the life of the pity party.

We may be biased, but that all sounds like cause for putting on your concentration face with The Eh! List below, presented by Mary Brown's Chicken — all Canadian and proud of it!
