I thought i would hop over to Itunes to see how our boys are doing, and they didn't disappoint. A week after their album was released they are at number 2 right behind Hannah Montana. I can only assume that taking out girls under 10 would shoot us up to the top.
Here's the Itunes quote about the new album.
Album Notes
National heroes who have never forgotten their ethic - or aesthetic - of a "local band that could," the Tragically Hip are back with its 12th studio album. We are the Same reunites the Kingston, Ontario, band with producer Bob Rock (Metallica, Our Lady Peace, Motley Crue) and explores the many musical moods and socio-political interests which have always defined it. The opening track "Morning Moon" opens with a placid unaccompanied acoustic guitar before an open toned electric guitar ushers it into wondrous country-rock territory. The prominence mandolin plays on "Queen of the furrows" is probably the most love that a stringed instrument has received in the rock world since R.E.M's "Losing My Religion." And the nearly nine and a half minute "The Depression Suite" sympathetically examines the life of some everyday folks working in menial jobs.
