Deadlines is the 2007 EP that introduced Arkells, the Hamilton, Ontario band that had signed with Dine Alone Records the year before. It came ahead of their first full album, Jackson Square, and it catches the founding lineup of Max Kerman, Mike DeAngelis, Nick Dika, Tim Oxford and Dan Griffin working up a scrappy, big-hearted indie rock sound with shout-along choruses and guitars that jostle for elbow room.
"Oh, The Boss Is Coming" was the song that carried it onto the radio. The Juno for Breakthrough Group of the Year followed in 2010.
