darkness sure is setting in with it i am familiar
we aint scared at all of dyin cuz we didn't mean to kill her

lookin back those sunny days just could not last forever
go inside and lock the doors wait out the stormy weather

if you don't listen carefully i may not come home tonight
don't bury me in that cemetary if i don't come home tonight

people screaming everywhere there's riots in the streets
buildings falling over there's a darkness in the heat

the stock market is crashing down on innocent survivors
the only cats who benefit are cockroaches and liars

people say the end is near but it already happened
we won't make it through the year the earth will become flattened

let's open wine and celebrate this hits once in a lifetime
there's nothing left to do but wait an eternity of nighttime

Once Just: A Balancing Act
By Caitlin Clow – Bishop Carroll High School, Calgary AB

From a city focused more on the oil industry then the arts comes a band who fuses tons of genres into a jubilee of energetic ear candy.

Made up of Caleb Cummings (vocals/guitar), Mike Vandom (bass) and Chris Noble (drums), Calgary’s Once Just has recently released their self-titled EP and there is a song on it that’ll please everyone. Their sound is so unique: part rock, part reggae, and part rap, all blended together! “We play a lot of shows, and we learned early on, that if all of our songs sound the same, it’s pretty boring to play night after night,” explains Chris Noble. “So we change things up and try new things at our shows, and a lot of that transfers to our albums.”

Inspired by a wide range of influences such as Nirvana, Bob Marley and Rage Against the Machine, Once Just hopes with their music they will send their listeners on a journey to discover other sounds as well, music that they wouldn’t normally give a chance to: “Hopefully a “rocker” will hear a song they like and then venture off into some of our more reggae stuff and gain an appreciation for reggae, and vice-versa,” says Noble.

With already four full-length albums and a fifth on the way around Christmas time, along with the recently released EP, there is much to anticipate from Once Just. This summer they’ll be a busy group, touring about Canada and then hitting the studio in September to lay down some new tasty jams.

Once Just’s music demonstrates that a person does not need to only enjoy one genre of music whether its rap, metal, pop, whatever. Perhaps suffering from music schizophrenia isn’t such a horrible thing after all.

Summer started just a couple of weeks ago, and Once Just has already put another 3000kms on the old odometer, the shows in GP, Edmonton, and Saskatoon were a blast, thanks to everyone everywhere that came out. We've got another bunch of shows in the next week, including a Festival out by Sylvan lake, and 2 shows for the Calgary Stampede, so if you live in Alberta, there is really no excuse for not having seen us play this summer.  We're also making stops in Winnipeg and Golden in July, so everyone begging for a Winnipeg show had better show up!! All the shows, as always, are up at www.oncejust.com on the very first page, so check em out, and come on out to a show...another handfull of concert announcements will be made late next week, so keep coming back to check.

Thanks to everyone that has been voting for us for the last few weeks on the Vibe 98.5 site, we have now made it to the semi-finals and there are only 6 artists/bands left.

It's far from over though, on June 7th we are back to Cowboys for the next round, and we NEED you there! It's a FREE show, and if you live in Airdrie, we can probably help you out with a ride. just email noblechris@gmail.com

Doors open pretty early 7ish, and we are on not long after that, but it's a saturday, so most of you don't have school or work anyways, so please come down and support us, and be LOUD and have FUN. When you get there, make sure to ask for a ballot so that you can VOTE for us to win, there will be NO online voting for the next 2 rounds, only voting at the show.
