POLARITY Second Album

2012 and Beyond; From Jasmine to You



Dear friends,

Before the caterpillar becomes a butterfly, she puts herself through a test of strength, endurance and will, knowing instinctively that only when she's pushed herself beyond the point of exhaustion will she be able to sore with the only restriction being the height of the sky.

POLARITY is now in her cocoon, we're working hard in our Jam room to create new harmonic sounds and in the next few months we hope to have some fresh recordings. Our intention is to release a song a month until we begin our cross Canada tour. Fingers crossed we hit the studio in March and we begin touring in June.

In the meantime our new Website is almost completed and we’ve got some great behind the scenes videos of our 2011 coming out in conjunction with our new online presence. Our new website will allow us greater ease in communicating our progress, uploading video footage and we very much look forward to hearing from you via our contact page.

I personally foresee 2012 being a year of transformation for us, growing pains as a band are required to evolve, lucky for us the we're a tight knight group with the utmost respect for one another and we have you, a strong foundation of dedicated and encouraging fans to lean on. It never fails to amaze us to see the same faces out to shows looking forward to seeing their 10th, 20th or even 40th set. To anyone who has yet to see us live, please keep spreading our music in your cities so we have pleasure of playing for you soon.

May 2012 be a time of strengthening transformation for us all, be true to yourself, your beliefs and the people you love. Find yourself spending space with the people you love and time doing what you love, our vow as a band is to do exactly this and with faith in ourselves and one another we hope to bring you a stronger POLARITY in 2012 and beyond.

Thank you from every inch of our hearts to anyone who's ever had a positive thought or belief in this band, for it's these thoughts that will propel us in the direction of our dreams.

As always let us know how we as band can help you achieve your dreams in 2012 and beyond...

With Love,

Jasmine.

POLARITY: Who we are

POLARITY: The presence or manifestation of two opposite or contrasting principles or tendencies. This definition reflects our new EP released in July of 2011. We embrace duality finding inspiration in the uncharted territories and often frightening truths of self found in the human psyche. With the new release we ask patience from our listeners. Our songs allow you a moment to breath and linger in a state of melodic limbo, listen for harmonizing guitars and painfully insecure lyrics. Once you're comfortable and before you know it you'll find senses exploding with pounding rhythm, powerful rifts and strong yet vulnerable melodies.


We formed in December of 2008 and released our debut album in October of 2009. Global Entertainment magazine has described our first release as going 'basement gold'. We've proudly sold over 2000 copies independently. 2010 saw us touring for the first time to the East Coast of Canada, and in the three and a half years since our bands birth we've played over one hundred shows in and around the GTA and have loved every stage and audience in the process. (Check out our list of past shows...it's pretty rad)


Like most unsigned bands we manage all aspects of our band independently and continue to do so. Our more recent accomplishments include a sold out show at Toronto's Tattoo Rock Parlour for our EP's release, playing in the heart of Toronto at Younge and Dundas for Youthday and helping raise over $11,000 for breast cancer while playing to an audience of over six hundred people. In the upcoming months you'll find us in our van touring the country exposing Canadian audiences to our progressive style


POLARITY; The positive or negative state in which a body reacts to a magnetic, electric or other field. This definition sums up all we hope for from our listener, that you give into our moment and allow yourself to feel the magnetic pull of POLARITY, allow the electricity of our instruments to course through your body and embrace the positive or negative reaction you have to the field of music we create.

The Month of Polarity!

With our new album out, we here at Polarity HQ think it's about damn time that our music made its way to the airwaves. Even in this digital age, getting airplay on a Toronto radio station is still worth its weight in gold. 102.1 The Edge hosts an "Indie Band of the month" on their Indie Online section of their website. Polarity has decided to call on all of YOU our fans to help push 102.1 to make us the band of the month. All we need are enough votes to beat out the other bands. You can vote here: HERE and you can all vote once a day. Even after voting, sending e-mails and phone calls to 102.1 The Edge requesting POLARITY will still help make a difference. So lets go POLARITY fans! Let's see how big we can make POLARITY in the month of August!

And we're off!

You might notice the lack of upcoming shows, well, there is a good reason.

New Shows!

Thats Right!

New shows are in the works for December, and one of them is a sure bet for an amazing time. A end of year KEGGER party at Polarity's house here in Missisauga.

Now whats even bigger, is that the lucky people attending will be able to witness the very first preformance of Captin Crossfade and the Punch-Ins!

Next on the list of reasons why you should be in attendance, is the dual kegs that we are supporting due to demand from the last kegger we held. (which included amazing music, awesome friends, and hot women making out with each other last time)

Now, I know you are all waiting with great patience for Polarity's first release, and I can say from sitting in the studio listening to it, that its going to amaze and marvel you, it will tickle your senses and leave you begging for more... the only way to get more of course to catch us live.

Which brings me back to the shows, right now we are crossing the T's and dotting the I's and arranging a lineup of shows for next month, so stay tuned!

About The Band

The few that compose Polarity formed in the beginning of 2008. Polarity can be described as a catalyst of personal and societal observation. Their name is as much a reflection of a universal truth, as is a reflection of their sound. They seamlessly blend together opposing sounds with juxtaposing concepts. Polarity writes music as a progression of linear noise that flows together for a transformational experience tortured aspects of the soul find release in. Polarity is the epitome of an 'Indie' band, creating a buzz amongst the scene for their high energy live show. Financing their own album and merchandise as well as working with independent producers has allowed them to progress quickly . They have just released their self-titled debut album and are currently out to promote its release. Their future plans include making many more albums and rocking the world.
