The idea is raw and simple: plaster quotes from their songs explicitly referencing some neighborhoods and streets at said locations.</p>

<p>Formerly used on Montreal streets signs and historically tied to the tensions between French and English in the city, <strong><a href="http://feedtype.ca/en/typefaces/hochelaga/">Hochelaga</a></strong> was an obvious choice to typeset and bring these lyrics back into the streets.</p>
