| Submission declined on 23 September 2024 by Qcne (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of music-related topics). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia. This submission appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established. If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

The numerically named, 027, are making waves in their local Ontario burgh. Not just with the crushing live fuzz rock they grind out, but by recording albums, putting on shows and supporting the scene that they have come up in.
This hard rock trio, formed in November of 2022 from the ashes of previous projects Hairblind, Dorene and Dirty Moths, wears its grunge influences well, even doing live covers of stoner greats like Kyuss with mind melting fury.
However, it is their originals that one really needs to check out. Coming in hot on the heels of instrumental atmospheric demo album ‘Commencement’, their new EP, ‘Light of the Black Sun’ is where the future of 027 lies. The EP features 3 songs, each recorded live and in one take at the band’s home studio, produced and mixed by 027 themselves.
Opener “Gun” grooves with a sludgey overtone and harsh, emotive vocals by Keagan Ross who also handles guitar duties. Riffing on Nirvana and even Melvins strength the band makes that dirty noise rock sound their own, and then some.
“Safe”, arguably the single here, ranges from pensive harmonics to intense, metal edged breaks with a head banging finish worthy of the largest, seething crowds possible.
Last track “Cold” runs into a punk vein that looks good on these guys. Gray Laine’s fast paced drumming and slamming bass from Caleb Lavictoire backing up fierce and furious vocals make for an EP finisher that just leaves you wanting more.
Digital copies of ‘Light of the Black Sun’ will be available to stream on Spotify, Apple Music, Band Camp, Youtube, and more. Those lucky enough to score a physical copy on CD or Cassette, will get the added bonus of 3 ambient tracks, instrumentals in the vein of ‘Commencement’ to give new listeners a taste of the band’s musical lineage.
With many years of musical experience between them, this young band have put their fingers in all the pots by learning to play various instruments, working hard on the art of mixing and production plus promoting their own shows and music with passion and vigor.
027 are:
Keagan Ross – lead guitar and vocals
Gray Laine – drums
Caleb Lavictoire – bass
