  Coldplay's "Fix You" is such a weird rally/entrance song for the Montreal Canadiens.

  > Correction, April 22nd: Crenshaw lost his right eye, not his legs, as this story initially misstated in one instance. An earlier version of this article also misstated the home state of Rep.

  My #RSD haul yesterday was just one used record, the 1978 debut album "Black Noise" from the Canadian prog rock group FM. Rolling Stone magazine put this album in their top 50 progressive rock albums of all time list in 2015. Not the only space-age-themed prog rock album coming out of Canada around the same time. @vinylrecords
