My Dear Watson
No one can hold a candle to Thom Yorke, but if we had to call out a Canadian counterpart, we'd nominate Patrick Watson.
 More orchestral than electronic, the music by the falsetto Montrealer and his bandmates has that same atmospheric, inventive and emotive qualities that we love about Radiohead. His first album Close to Paradise received critical acclaim, the coveted Polaris Music Prize and play on Grey's Anatomy, and his follow-up Wooden Arms, written while touring the globe, doesn't disappoint.
With a weirdly whimsical track named for the classic Maurice Sendak's children's story Where the Wild Things Are, who wouldn't be hooked?
Download Wooden Arms ($9.99) on iTunes.
