One of the most important Canadian labels of all time, Sonic Unyon is a Hamilton based label that was founded in 1992 by Mark Milne, Sandy McIntosh and Tim Potocic of the band Tristan Psionic. Over the course of 25 years, they have released albums from: Sianspheric, Shallow North Dakota, Eric's Trip, Hayden, Chore, Frank Black and the Catholics, A Northern Chorus, Raising the Fawn, Teenage Head, Voivod and more.

***Editor’s Note
It dawned on while editing this video that the proper pronunciation of Sonic Unyon is probably “Sonic Onion”. The fellas that introduced me to this label always referred to it as “Sonic Union”, so that’s what I’ve been saying. That’s most likely incorrect. My apologies.***
