Okara was a hardcore band that formed 1995, right in this city! Really really good, I'm looping Red Tide as I type this. The following track, Aguirre is a noisy treat. All recorded in their basement. I wish I could dig up information but I really don't want to give my soul to the Meta overlords... September of '95, they played at Carelton, with another Ottawa band Shotmaker and these nobodies called Fugazi.

According to a comment on this video their bassist, Matt, has passed away. I don't recommend bothering anyone, but do listen to this sick piece of history!
