With the release of 2022’s The Labyrinth EP and 2023’s The Wolf EP, Toronto-based psych rock/art rock outfit 5th PROJEKT — Tara Rice (vocals, guitar), Peter Broadley (bass), Sködt McNalty (guitar) and David Pake (drums) — made a name for themselves in the national scene: The Wolf EP debuted on the !earshot National Top 50, before climbing into the Top 25. The Wolf EP was also featured in Obscure Sound, Spill Magazine, V13, Canadian Beats, From the Strait and a collection of local and international publications.

Adding to a growing local and national profile, the band has received awards series of award nominations including The Ontario Independent Music Awards (IMAs), The Toronto Independent Music Awards (IMAs) and The Orange County Music Awards. They’ve also made a run of international festival circuit with sets at NXNE, Departure (f.k.a. Canadian Music Week), Indie Week, Kaleidoscope and Spirits of the Earth. And they’ve gone on two tours of Eastern Canada.

The Canadian quartet’s first live-off-the-floor EP Live in London is slated for a May 13, 2026 through the band’s own Organik Rekords. Recorded at London, ON-based The Sugar Shack, Live in London is part of the Incorrect Thoughts Live series.

The EP’s first single is a live rendition and reworking of “Oblivion,” a song that appeared on their debut effort, 2006’s Circadian. Live in London EP‘s take on “Oblivion” features a reimagined, slow-burning introduction, specifically meant to deepen the original’s hauntingly hypnotic pull while retaining the elements of the original that their fans loved: Rice’s ethereal and yearning delivery over a brooding slow-burning groove and shimmering and expressive, shoegazer-like guitar textures. And while reminding me a bit of Phantoms‘ 2013 effort The Fire Tapes, “Oblivion” showcases a band that specializes in cinematic atmospherics and enormous hooks and choruses.
