Breaking: Broken Social Scene Unveils First Album in 9 Years –“Remember the Humans”
Broken Social Scene drops *Remember the Humans*, their first album in nine years, shattering expectations with a sprawling, collaborative return. The Canadian collective—known for fluid lineups and genre-defying anthems—reasserts its relevance amid indie fatigue. Founders Kevin Drew and Brendan Canning lead 20+ contributors, blending political urgency with emotional resonance. A defiant, timely statement proving their ethos endures.
Canadian collective Broken Social Scene have always been a funny answer to the classical idea of a band. The classical idea being a tight group of individuals who churn out songs with everyone playing their specific part of their designated instrument. And maybe attempt to look cool on stage doing just that. Founding member Brendan Canning already tried his hand at this archaic paradigm in the wake of the alternative rock boom Powered by MTV, to not much avail.
