"(Garageland: The Junction )", ''Exclaim!''. Retrieved 2010-04-15.〕 ==History== The Junction formed in Brampton in 2000. Jackson and Taylor were classmates for years when they finally discovered that either of them played instruments during grade 9. Jameson later saw the band play at a battle of the bands after Jackson had transferred to Mayfield Secondary School. Amidst having several members come and go the band released 3 EP’s before signing with Universal Music. The first two EP’s 'White and Orange', and 'Three Singles' were recorded by Greg Dawson. The third, 'And With This Comes Tomorrow' was recorded by Brian Moncarz. After attracting attention from industry The Junction signed a 3 record deal with Universal Records and recorded their first full length record during 2005 and 2006. The band has admitted that they took far too long to record and release their first record. 'The Junction' was released in February 2007 and had little support from the label that saw the record as “challenging”. During the summer of 2007 their booking agents dropped them and they left their management company. It was at this time they were able to get out of their deal with Universal and continue independently with Jameson taking on the role of manager. The band continued to tour Canada with bands such as Moneen, Bedouin Soundclash, and The Reason whilst writing songs and continuing to source out the possibilities of making another record. They were told about producer Gus Van Go by Indica Records and made contact with him. With Indica stepping out of the situation due to budget constraints, the band continued to keep in contact with Gus and worked to gather the funds needed to record in Brooklyn with Gus and his partner Werner F. Their second full-length record, 'Another Link In The Chain', was the product of this collaboration. The record was released July 28, 2009 in Canada. The band is currently completing their third full-length record which was recorded with Gus and Werner F. in Montréal. 〔Marcus, Bianca (July 2, 2009). "(The Junction Album Coming )", Chartattack.com.
