Double Experience |

The best bands create an identity that strikes a chord with listeners. In the best cases it’s less of a gimmick and more of a personality that embeds songs in the listener’s mind, in a special spot that only those snippets of bliss inhabit. Canadian power trio Double Experience do just that. Their nerdy take on alt-metal falls somewhere between the heavy creativity of Coheed And Cambria, and the hooky brilliance of Weezer. Lyrically, the band mines sci-fi and video game themes without limiting content to that area only. The result is original metal with huge pop hooks that hit the listener hard. The impressive results can be heard on their third album, Unsaved Progress.

Double Experience creates music that is immersive. These songs hold the listener in their grasp, creating waves of power and melody. Unsaved Progress is so good I bought the band’s previous releases after listening to this album . What higher compliment can I give?

After several tours of the USA and Europe, Ottawa’s nerd-rock trio DOUBLE EXPERIENCE are returning for their first cross-Canada tour since 2014. The band will be performing songs off their third full-length, “Unsaved Progress”, including their recent single “The Glimmer Shot”; a Destiny-themed rock anthem, which earned them accolades from the creators of the video game itself.

For the first time, Canadian fans will be treated to DOUBLE EXPERIENCE‘s larger-than-life show; an event that begins before the band even takes the stage.

“On our last UK tour, we coordinated everything from Pokemon duels on Game Boys with our fans, Pokemon-themed drink specials, cosplay contests, and more,” explains vocalist Ian Nichols. “This fall, we’re embracing Pokemon GO and incorporating aspects of that into what happens offstage.”

Taking the next step from their previous album – initially released exclusively on collectible trading cards, the band utilizes classic video-game inspired artwork and packaging. The album was brought to life with the help of Al Jacob and Kit Walters (HE IS LEGEND) at Warrior Sound in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.

Prior to the creation of “Unsaved Progress”, Double Experience were busy performing across 15 countries, playing everywhere from video game museums to tattoo conventions as well as showcases at Canadian Music Week and Indie Week Canada. Their adventures have been supported by international radio, festivals and television alike, culminating with an entire nerd-rock exposé and performance on Global TV in Canada.

Album orders are now available at the band’s merch store here. A deluxe edition of the album – boasting two unreleased songs, two acoustic remixes, merch discount codes, studio footage and a brand new trading card – is also available for the fastidious Double Experience collector.
