A band to showcase to you all today, Rock and Pop?

I feel like sharing with you some of my favourite bands. In this question, I'll be sharing The Dears. The Dears are a band from Montreal, Canada, formed in 1995. Their debut album was released in 2000. Their singer, Murray Lightburn, has often been called "the black Morrissey" for his similar vocal stylings and penchant for dark lyrics. They're probably my favourite band within the Canadian indie scene.

So, without further ado, allow me to share with you some of their music:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6o-eADVHVe4 - Who Are You, Defenders of the Universe? (By far my favourite of their songs.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dbsfs114rTk - Warm and Sunny Days (another of my favourites)
