Matthew Good, "Bad Guys Win"
I only recently stumbled upon this song, which has been out for a few months now. I'll admit I haven't been keeping up much with Canadian rocker Matthew Good; even though I thought his eponymous band was turning out above-average singles in the late 1990s/early 2000s, they didn't rank among my very favorite Canadian bands of the era (like Sloan or Big Wreck). But in a year that's been pretty sparse for memorable guitar riffs, this song stands out. (The drums on this are pretty terrific too). And the lyrical content is pointed and relevant, especially today, when US elections are being held. So I thought it was the perfect day to post this and encourage my US friends to vote: it's one of the few things we can do to not let the bad guys win.
