JOHN WALRUS

is the name of a four-piece indie rock/emo band that got started in Ottawa Ontario Canada around the mid 90s. We played a few shows (best gig with: The Promise Ring) but the band, after relocating to Montreal and playing some shows there, ended up dissolving. We released one album entitled Counted Downtime (still have about 50 copies sitting in a box somewhere), and it was relatively well received. This page used to list our upcoming shows and junk, but I figured I ought to change it to clarify that the band is no longer around.

You can still enjoy the following MP3s from Counted Downtime:
formalitee
green hills and a soundtrack to die for
horrorscope
lose a beat
we're shy
over and over, it's not over

If you're interested in hearing the rest of the album, or you'd like to send any of the guys glorious fanmail or huge sacks of money, drop me a line.
