A Mountain Far Launches New Site

Chances are if you have been to a Toronto "post hardcore/ screamo" show over the last year or so, it's most likely been an AMF show. A Mountain Far puts on the best shows, distros a lengthy and growing list of awesome diy releases, and makes a habit of connecting good people.

The human behind the machine is Matt Cuthbert, recent bassist of Siberia and past vocalist of the Veil. Matt has a knack for making stuff happen and tends to do a really good job. The launch of his fancy new webspace intends to promote and facilitate more great shows, connect like minds, and provide an organized public listing of the awesome releases he has collected for distribution.

Add AMF as a friend, drop a comment, connect with a like mind, and keep up with awesome Toronto shows, bands and activities.

Good chance you are familiar with HA4TLD {High Art For The Low Down}, the now legendary second floor venue {and diy label} down on Toronto's Lower Sherbourne at Siesta Nouveaux. HA4TLD has hosted some amazing shows over the last few years with the last Rammer show really taking the roof off. Matt Shortill, the man behind the magic has recently made the move-on-up, securing a new {and bigger} second floor spot. Annies is a rad new hardcore punk venue at 372 Queen St. East, on the 24hr Queen streetcar line. Matt is booking local and touring bands 7 days a week so get in touch if yer looking for a gig. Currently the venue is 19+ only but may host all ages as early as spring.
