Influences
"If the majors are hoping to sign someone before the end of the year, they should take a close look at Toronto's Cancel Winter...emo, new wave, indie and radio-friendly rock, all on one slickly produced record...infectious enough to be played on rock stations across the country.."
NOW MAGAZINE
" Cancel Winter’s debut album..(is)..a catchy and memorable collection of indie rock songs… Liestillnow is a beautifully crafted album that ebbs and flows like every collection of songs should. "
EXCLAIM MAGAZINE
"It’s an Indie writers dream to listen to a well packaged, well produced album that is not only thought provoking, but is melodic and energetic enough to keep you up and finish the entire album."
www.ronatron.net
"What grabs you most about this band in a live setting is their ability to re-create what you hear on CD. The players in this band are always tight, both individually and as a whole. The songs always come through loud and clear. "
A Thousand Points of Light
"All told, the 5-piece proved to be purveyors of some very catchy hooks and just enough edge to keep them to the left of pop. It was also clear that Cancel Winter is an outfit that is comfortable on stage and would definitely merit seeing again during a more full-length set."

"Cancel Winter played one of the snowiest nights this winter, but they still managed to get people out of their houses and packed into the tiny, sweaty room at Rancho Relaxo. This indie rock quintet play some of the prettiest songs, but with a rock edge that means both guys and girls will like them."
www.chartattack.com - CMW show review
"(what) I like most about this album is how difficult I have found it to try to compartmentalize it into easy-to-review capsules..(it) sports a lot of catchy vocal melodies for something that also has so much atmosphere..&..hits with an epic layering that comes very close to bands such as Radiohead."

"Cancel Winter is music for those days when you get on the subway during a bad storm - no, make that a torrential downpour, and when you get off at your stop, it’s suddenly sunny out and you just want to smile and buy a chocolate milk."

Remember the last time someone broke your heart? Remember how you called them, ranting and mumbling into the phone between sobs, until they finally just hung up?
Imagine if someone got those sounds, mixed them up proper, and produced a CD?
Cancel Winter’s liestilnow distills that heartbreak into electric guitars, loud drums and electronic blips punctuated by vocals that tell us love is bad – stay far, far away. NOW Mag. says, “These guys have managed to combine emo, new wave, indie and radio-friendly rock all one slickly produced record. The songs are infectious enough to be played on rock stations across the country”.
The band manages to merge the catchiness of radio pop without losing the raw emotion of the songs. This is a CD inspired by heartache but follows that up with a swift kick to the temple.
Nate Amazing Acoustic show last night. It was my pleasure to share the stage. Dark Velvet Sky is one of the best songs I have heard of recent. Cant wait to have a copy of it. See you again Justin

Hey N8! What's up! Hope Cancel Winter is doing well. We will definitely keep you in mind for opening slots in Waterloo. It would be awesome if you did the same for us on your end in the Toronto area! Hope to play together soon.
Hey guys, it's been a while! Hope to see you soon in Toronto, we are working on a new CD right now but it would be great to play with you guys again sometime soon!
That was a great set at The Supermarket. A sound that draws on a myriad of influences, soaring, heartfelt rock that casts both light and shadow, but at the end of the day, realizing that you're glad to feel alive.
