Montrealian Punk Rock

Every town, no matter how small, has its own intimate punk scene, and unless you live in that town, it's unlikely you've ever heard of any of the bands who perform there. There are exceptions, as it could be argued that every band started off small and unknown, but it's sometimes evident based on the sound which acts will make it past their local boundaries and into the public view. The following two groups I will present to you come from Montreal  in Canada.
I post a blog entry about them not because they are especially notable or unique in any way I can perceive; but in fact it is just the opposite: I present them to you as an example of the microcosmic subculture that exists in the peripherals of everyone's youth, consists of the irreligious and energetic, and resists the rituals of common existence.

Here is Tightrope and Inside Riot from Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
