In the far, far away land of British Columbia, Canada, there once was a group of boys (Ian Casselman, Mike Ayley, Matt Webb, and Josh Ramsay) who came together to create music under the moniker Marianas Trench. Every time they released new music, boys and girls everywhere listened with joy as MT took them on a musical journey. In 2011 Ever After was released and brought with it the highly popular singles “Haven’t Had Enough” and “Fallout”.

Marianas Trench recently released their third album Ever After which is killing the radio waves in Canada. Songs like “Fallout” and “Haven’t Had Enough” have made people sing and air drum wherever and whenever. Drummer Ian Casselman recently gave PureGrainAudio some time to talk about his Custom Yamaha Drums which you will see him play on stage.

Welcome to Ever After. A fairytale and a single, 54 minute track stitched from 12 discrete songs – the most audacious songs Marianas Trench has ever crafted. Ever After is constructed around a story written by Ramsay himself and then finessed into an accompanying booklet. It’s an actual physical experience; a warm throwback to the album era when your music was more than a bunch of orphaned songs sitting on an endless iPod playlist.

You try to fall asleep but you hear something going bump in the night. It’s not monsters like in the kids TV show but Jakalope with their third album Things That Go Jump In The Night. As you hide under the covers you hear the industrial rock flow through the room as your heart starts pounding to the tight beats produced by Dave “Rave” Ogilvie. You think that’s everything until you hear Chrystal Leigh’s upbeat vocals which gets stuck in your head.
