Sometimes by City And Colour

Sometimes, the first City and Colour album, came out on Dine Alone Records in 2005, and it began life almost by accident. City and Colour was a side project for Dallas Green, the guitarist and singer from Alexisonfire, and most of these songs had only been heard at his shows or passed around online through peer-to-peer file sharing until demand got big enough to justify pressing them onto a proper studio record. Green produced it with Julius Butty.

It's the flip side of Alexisonfire's screaming: hushed acoustic guitar, a quiet room and Green's high, aching voice, sweet enough to break your heart and sad enough to finish the job. "Comin' Home" was the only song that hadn't already been out there. Canadian critics fell hard for it, and it won Alternative Album of the Year at the 2007 Juno Awards. Americans had to wait until Vagrant reissued it on January 13, 2009, to find it in stores.
